    Regarding Jack in Cleveland and his daughter and ex-wife, I love the advice just letting her know I can afford X amount - or whatever but why do parents today think they have to buy everything for their children, my siblings and I we all got a part-time job and worked to get our car and if we were short a little, our parents helped us, but I think far too many parents let their kids guilt them into having to buy everything for them… you’re 16 - let’s get a part-time job and you can work 20 hours a week. and maybe Dad can put in $1500 mom will put in $1500 and the child can put in $2000 or whatever it is, and use her birthday and Christmas money, she should be saving that she gets from grandparents, etc.,
    And overall show the child They need to be responsible and they will take care of the car rather than just “expect” everything they ask for because that’s not what life is all about.

    The braces - ask your child what they think about their teeth too. Can you do extra to pay for it? Can the kid take a summer job? Can the other parent pay more and do side job.

    • @blackwomenbuildwealth
      @blackwomenbuildwealth 23 часа назад

      Giving money doesn't come naturally to everyone. They may not be giving money right now but they may be at the same time volunteering at a local charity, tutoring kids for free etc. That's too is giving. And that's giving time which is way more valuable than money. I command them for asking the question about giving money now. That shows they thought about it and want to make it part of their life now. Many people will never reach that point despite being very wealthy.

    58:40 Ouch! I feel the judgement rolling off John and Ken in waves regarding this arranged marriage. Just because it's not the "American" thing to do doesn't mean it's not done elsewhere. You both derogatorily commenting is rather disgusting, to be honest. It's a cultural thing that you two (nor I) understand, so you should have kept your opinions to yourselves and just answered his question about being fearful he couldn't provide the lifestyle his fiancee was brought up in.

      Umm no. The guys situation was ABSURD! Also, Ken and John made it clear they were not being disrespectful to the concept of arranged marriage. They were laughing at the absurdity of the guys situation. It wasn’t a traditional or cultural “arranged marriage” this is a guys overbearing mommy wanting him to marry a wealthy girl. Dr. John has talked about many times that arranged marriages actually have a great success rate, but not when you just get thrown into it like this 19 yr old guy is.

John has even said multiple times that arranged marriages have a great success rate. This is NOT that situation. That call was quite absurd and was not the traditional arranged marriage call.

    teaching is fairly low pay on average. However, there are some very competitive teaching jobs that do pay quite well. Wealthy towns. These folks have probably had some other great advantage, a lucrative side hustle or an inheritance. At the college level, the jobs pay so poorly that tears are involved.

    • @Trustbutverify2651
      @Trustbutverify2651 День назад

      I am both a retired teacher and an adjunct (part-time) professor - did both jobs for over 30 years. Teacher pay might be considered low, but there are many advantages - same schedule as your children, holidays off with your children, we have a pension plan in our state, and health insurance. Teachers who claim they work hours at night, on every holiday, and over the summer very often are not using their time wisely and learning ways to become efficient. ( I was a department chair for well over a decade and saw it all.) Teachers also often have other tax-free investment vehicles through their work. I was able to save just enough to keep my tax bracket low and it paid off very well over a career. College level pay is NOT low for tenured professors, particularly in light of the numbers of hours worked! Part-time college level pay may be low, but that is because those jobs are NOT intended to be full-time jobs. Those who stay in low-paying education jobs hoping something "might open up" need to realize it is their CHOICE to stay in that career - other options are available, so stop complaining and find something else if you need more pay. Long story short - we are both now retired, we saved and are very comfortable and I know I can live fine if my husband dies before me because I have both a pension and and IRA from the other funds I invested, and my pension plus my social security equals more than what I was making the last year of teaching - we have seen no drop in our standard of living. Work hard, stay out of debt, live on less than what you make, invest, and PAY OFF YOUR HOUSE EARLY and you will be just fine! This is true for everyone, including teachers.

    Vanessa's numbers did not add up. If the 2 homes on one parcel sells for $500,000 she still has to pay off the mortgage on those properties of a $166,000 and split the profit after paying capital gain taxes with her brother-in-law. That doesn't even give her enough money to pay off her current house, let alone build an airbnb on her current property.

    Watching Ken's and John's face listening to Adam's class is hilarious! 🤣🤣🤣Clearly these two have never heard of an arranged marriage - but he will be tied to the parents of that family forever. I lived in a country that had arranged marriages and Americans do not understand it. This is totally the way it's done in other mid-eastern or Asian cultures. Marriages are even arranged when the children are kids. Do not criticize the Mom, she is doing what she knows. But Adam should say no - he is too Americanized. Americans think you fall in love and then marry the person you fall in love with - but divorce rates are very high among couples who come from vastly different backgrounds with different assumptions and values. In other cultures the idea is you trust your parents to pick for you someone with whom you can make a good marriage and THEN you learn to love.
