Dont wait!! Listen to this...

I loved this episode. It was great getting perspective that was provocative and useful right out of the box. I liked the points that were made about spending your resources (money, time, company, etc...) in the right way. Ramit has a way of communicating his point with out over pontificating.

More of a marriage counselor than a money podcast.

stories can be interesting to listen to because some of these people are extremely neurotic, but this is a touchy, feely, sensitive way to try to convince people to make changes in their life and marriage. I agree with his reasoning, but I would never recommend this podcast to anyone that wants to learn about money. I purchased his book on a recommendation , but now I'm worried that it has less to do with finance and more to do with emotional baggage. If that's the case I'll be getting my money back.

Talking about money from the inside

This podcast is great -- it's so interesting to hear other people open up about how they interact with each other and their finances. There are a lot of "hey, I do that too!" moments in here -- very educational, and not an angle I've heard elsewhere.

I want even more!

The conversations often take interesting tangents. Now I wish he could interview single parents, examine their hang ups and help them think out of the box to overcome money scripts of scarcity and struggle.

Money psychology and money lenses

I’ve recently embarked on what I refer to as my financial awakening and was, just like many of the guests on this podcast, terrified of money. I’ve read ramit’s book and about 12 others to get myself on the right path and since expanded into podcasts but what I love most about this is the insight into different money lenses and psychology. Bc as ramit says with money we are not logical, we are emotional, irrational, and understanding the deep seated reasons behind this help us to simplify and demystify money. Plan to keep listening. Thanks for the good content- always amazed how calm and understanding ramit is at emotional times and silly or shocked etc at seemingly the right times.

A must listen!

I love Ramit’s no-nonsense approach to personal finance. I also love how he recognizes that most of have psychological issues with money, and this is what tends to cause our deeper issues. The podcast has been so helpful for my husband and I - so much so that, if we felt more comfortable sharing our personal financial info in public, we would apply to be on the show ourselves!
