PODCAST EPISODE 321 – Should you Die With Zero?

ByPaul Adams

In Episode 321 of More Than Commas, Paul Adams unpacks the core ideas of Bill Perkins’ book Die With Zero, which challenges the conventional wisdom of hoarding wealth for retirement. Instead, Perkins urges us to align our money, time, and energy with meaningful experiences during the prime years of our lives.

Paul explores concepts like the “Fulfillment Curve,” “Memory Dividends,” and “Time Bucketing,” showing how intentional spending can create lasting impact and relational ROI. This episode encourages listeners to rethink legacy, give generously while they’re alive, and plan for a rich life—not just a rich bank account.
