Episodes about this book
2 episodesThe New Way For Ordinary People To Build Wealth - Tony Robbins - #1153
Mentioned while framing a question about spending wealth rather than endlessly accumulating it. The speaker describes it as "fucking fantastic" and uses it to introduce an archetype of person who, despite having money, is too terrified of losing it to spend it—the opposite of the book's die-with-zero philosophy.
699: Jack Raines - How to Build Your Career, Increase Your Surface Area For Luck, and Find Your Purpose | Why Memories Compound Faster Than Money
Jack Raines and Ryan Hawk discuss Bill Perkins's Die With Zero philosophy — spending money on experiences across one's life rather than accumulating wealth unused. Jack recounts the first chapter, in which Perkins describes a friend who borrowed money to backpack Europe at 24 and still went on to a successful career, a trip Perkins regrets not taking himself until 30. Ryan Hawk's closing remarks also cite Die With Zero as an influence on the episode's theme of spending on experiences that expire with age.
