Escaping the Sunken Cost Trap | The 7th Cents Podcast

Coach R.L. Simmons, Michael Macklin Season 1 Episode 2

In this thought-provoking episode of The 7th Cents Podcast, hosts Mike Macklin (Money Mike) and Rob Lee Simmons (Coach RL) break down the sunken cost fallacy — and not just in your wallet, but in your relationships, careers, and everyday decisions.

They explore:

  • What the sunken cost fallacy is and how it shows up in real life
  • Why we stay stuck in bad investments — emotional, financial, or otherwise
  • The mindset shift needed to walk away without guilt
  • How to recognize when you're holding on to something just because you've already “paid” for it
  • Actionable steps to reclaim your time, energy, and money

💡 If you've ever said, “I've come this far, I can't quit now,” this episode is for you.
