What happens when loyalty meets stinginess?
In this episode of NUGGETS, Pellegrino tells the unforgettable story of being charged €30 for a 3-kilo “overweight” bike bag — after 25 years of loyalty to the same airline.
But this Nugget isn’t about luggage. It’s about the psychology behind stinginess, fairness, fear, and the Norwegian word RAUS — the exact opposite of stingy.
Together, Pellegrino and Francois explore why stinginess hurts more than money, how rigid rules weaken trust, and why generosity boosts connection, loyalty, and even brain chemistry.
From Marcus Buckingham’s experience makers to cultural insights about fairness and recognition, this is a playful but powerful dive into one of life’s most annoying traits — and what it teaches us about leadership and being human.
Your Nugget: Stinginess comes from fear. Generosity comes from strength.
And the real cost of stinginess isn’t €45… it’s relationships.
