We're bringing this one back, because the problem it covers is even more relevant in today's environment.
Social comparison has always been part of human nature. But financial social comparison in 2026 is a different beast. TikTok has entire subcultures built around money. Algorithms are engineered to show you exactly what makes you feel behind. The explosion of AI generated content will make the problem worse, not better.
This influences more people to make financial decisions based on what they think others are doing, without considering the consequences.
In this episode, Anastasia and Bill dig into the psychology and financial reality behind social comparison:
- How common is it for Millennials and Gen Z to compare their financial situations?
- What are some negative effects to comparing your finances to others?
- What strategies can you use to avoid comparison?
- Are there benefits to discussing finances with friends, or should you keep it confidential?
- What really matters when it comes to building your own version of financial success
Originally recorded in 2024 and more relevant than ever.
Creating Wealth is hosted by Anastasia Taber, CFP®, and her father Bill Taber, a 40+ year investment advisor. New episodes every other Friday.
