Description
Are you stingy when it comes to your money, or do you give it away generously? For most people, when it comes to tithing, they’re more on the stingy side of things.
At least that’s where today’s guest, Bob Lotich was back in the day. Fortunately, though, with the help of his wife, Bob moved from stingy to generous giver, and by age 31, was giving 31% of his income away.
I know what you’re thinking – 31%?! Yes, 31%.
Today, Bob’s a Certified Educator in Personal Finance and writes a personal finance blog on the intersection of money and the Bible - a topic I know many of you will love.
As we sit down to discuss Bob’s personal money story and journey, we also dive into this topic of money and the Bible and also cover some of our favorite budgeting tools. Join us and let’s see where you rank in terms of giving generously.
This episode is brought to you by our complimentary Purpose Chasers community. Want to share your aha moments with a group of like-minded purpose chasers from all over the world? Visit iamapurposechaser.com and join NOW.
