What would make more of an impact?
$50 you received every month.
$50 you have to do something with, for someone else every month.
If you don’t know, I’d suggest that for the upcoming 6 months you create an experiment for yourself.
The first 3 months, directly after your paycheck you go to an ATM and withdraw $50. It’s for you. Do something with it.
The next 3 months, directly after your paycheck you go to an ATM and withdraw $50. Do something with it, for someone else.
I’m curious. What was more impactful?
