Journal Club 5-6-22

Here's Journal Club 5-6-22! Every week, I hold a JOURNAL CLUB. After filtering through the articles on the web, I present a few that impacted my life this week. Be safe and stay well!

• For high-income earners, it’s not surprising to get caught up in the cycle of trading time and skills for money to accumulate wealth. However, it’s equally, if not more important, to not rely on just one source of income. The White Coat Investor shares one such inspiring story of a fellow doctor achieving financial independence in the article – Going from Broke to Financially Fit in Just 5 Years.

• It’s almost too easy for our spending to go up when our earnings go up. Ever wonder why? The author of Another Second Opinion explains the rationale behind our ever-growing expenses and how to reel them in – The Psychology of Overspending and How to Overcome it.

• Are you on the lookout for your next big move or planning to relocate to a different city while embracing the remote work culture? If yes, The Female Professional has put together a comprehensive list to help you make the switch in the article – The 10 Most Affordable States Live In The U.S. In 2022.

• A wise man once said, “homeostasis keeps us alive and healthy,” then why do so many of us choose to stay bound to the hedonic treadmill? The author Ben White poses this fascinating question and shares his formula to maintain a healthy balance between our needs and desires in the article – Wanting Less.

That's all for this week! I hope this week's journal club was helpful.
