Your income is strong. You’re grateful for it. But along with the bigger paycheck came more pressure, more expectations, and more complex money decisions that don’t show up in your bank app.

In Episode 2 of the High Income, Low Structure series, we zoom in on the hidden financial traps that only show up once you start earning well as a Filipino professional. These aren’t beginner mistakes—they’re patterns that quietly drain wealth at your level.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The Lifestyle Inflation Spiral — how “small upgrades” quietly eat the entire raise
• Extended Family Pressure — when every increase in income becomes a “family raise”
• Celebration Debt and “Deserve Ko ’To” — using tomorrow’s money for yesterday’s party
• The “Always On” Brain — decision fatigue when every money choice lives in your head
• Get-Rich-Quick Temptation — FOMO-driven, speculative decisions that aren’t anchored in a plan
• Decision Paralysis — researching endlessly while inflation quietly eats idle cash

You’ll walk away seeing which traps are present in your own life—and what small, concrete rules you can start putting in place so your income serves you more consistently.
