Should We Live Here? (JWP133)
Every time I travel somewhere beautiful, the same question shows up within 48 hours: should we live here? This episode isn't really about Bali. It's about what that recurring pattern actually reveals.
In this episode, I get into:
- Why travel gives you perspective, not just a better holiday, and how it quietly rewires what you assume is "normal" - The real story of a retired Australian couple I met who built their dream villa in Bali sixteen years ago, and what happened to the view they thought they'd always have - Why optionality was never meant to be the destination, and what it's actually supposed to buy you - The line that reframed the whole episode for me: a choice you never make isn't wealth, it's just deferred decision-making with better financing - Where my family and I are actually heading next, and why the decision is deliberately undramatic
This one ties together the last two episodes on capital and cash flow, and lands on a question I'm still sitting with: at what point does keeping your options open stop being freedom, and start being the thing stopping you from building the life you actually want?
