ABOUT THIS EPISODE
If you've ever bought something online and later thought, "Why did I even buy this?", this episode is for you because every time you scroll through Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or Facebook, you're seeing content that has been carefully selected to influence what you buy.
In this episode, we're taking a closer look at the social media algorithms and marketing strategies designed to influence consumer behavior, including how companies use your interests, browsing habits, online activity, and psychology to put the right products in front of you at the right moment. And let's be honest, that makes us all buy more than we should.
And because of that we're sharing some practical ways to take back control of your spending, so that you can have less buyer's remorse as you re-channel that money toward a healthy retirement.
Key Moments:

• Watch Out For Status Signaling (5:15)
• Frictionless Purchasing Makes It Too Easy (9:20)
• Expand To Network Wide Add Blocking (12:15)
