Comparison and the Ultimate Money Delusion - Ep 138

If you think Paul Ollinger can’t draw poignant and funny lessons about money from the 1996 box office smash, Jerry Maguire, you are sadly mistaken. On this week’s very special spring break episode of Crazy Money, Paul reads a couple of his recent reflections on comparison and the delusions we all cling to about the power of wealth. Spoiler alert: money—past a certain point—will not complete you. And comparing yourself to your friends (or enemies) will make you miserable. Full stop. Here’s what we’ll be talking bout today:

  • Stop Keeping Score: How to Quit Measuring Success by Net Worth, Fancy Titles, or TikTok Views

  • Money Isn’t What You’re Missing: What I’ve learned after years of studying money and happiness
