Lifestyle Creep, and Booking Cheap Travel
Lifestyle creep \u2014 where your growing expenses outpace salary increases \u2014 can deflate your budget and prevent you from building wealth. To start this episode, Nerds Sean Pyles and Sara Rathner talk about how to determine if you\u2019re succumbing to lifestyle creep and how to be more intentional about your money while still enjoying the finer things in life.\xa0\nThen Sean and Liz Weston answer a listener\u2019s three-part question about whether to pay off student loans while they\u2019re paused, what to do with their savings and how to find the best deals when booking travel.\nTo send the Nerds your money questions, call or text the Nerd hotline at 901-730-6373 or email podcast@nerdwallet.com.
