Ever wondered why budgeting fails during the holidays?

It’s not because you’re bad with numbers — it’s because spending is emotional.

You’ll learn:
🧠 Why 90% of money decisions are emotional
🎄 How guilt, nostalgia, and pressure affect spending
📱 The dopamine trap of online shopping & social media
💳 Why “deserve ko ‘to” thinking is dangerous
