When you think you're rich, you’re more likely to spend more. And when you’re not so confident about money, you may hold back and save. This is how the wealth effect works.

On today’s podcast Doug Hoyes and Ted Michalos give real-life examples of how the wealth effect works and why it may cause you unwanted debt problems if you’re not careful. Tune in for a great discussion.
