Episode 3151: Stephen Popick unpacks the often-misunderstood concept of the time value of money, showing why recurring expenses like cable TV aren’t as costly in today’s dollars as they appear over decades. By factoring in inflation, investment returns, and personal opportunity costs, he makes a compelling case for thoughtful financial planning that balances present needs with future goals. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.getrichslowly.org/the-time-value-of-money-or-why-25-years-of-cable-tv-doesnt-cost-as-much-as-you-think/ Quotes to ponder: "The time value of money is a complex term for a simple concept: Any given amount of money is worth more today than the same amount in the future." "Your personal time value of money is very tough to measure on a personal level." "Would I rather have $30,000 today or cable television for the next 25 years? There’s no one right answer."
