Very interesting. The wide variety of guests and topics makes this podcast series really unique. And “I’m not rich, I am a poor man with money” is a fantastic quote 😂
Excellent interview. My favorite part was the segment about gift giving. I knew there was something deep and meaningful about it, but I get so confused/distracted trying to select physical gifts.
Fantastic, highly educational podcast. One of those where you take away so many insights and things to continue thinking about. Also a nice change of pace from the more technical financial podcasts (which I also enjoy greatly). I know there are more like these, on psychology and so on, but still. Great moderation as well, letting Scott talk most of the time as he's clearly the expert in this topic, but also adding further questions or small personal remarks and reactions. I definitely didn't expect tightwad + spendthrift to be a happy (and common) combination, but very nice to know!
Amazing content as always. I'm definitely on the tightwad side, but should learn how to open up my pocket a little bit more (especially with random gifts). That random notification app for setting reminders is a fantastic idea. I wanted to setup something like that with my calendar, but it's not random enough for me. This will be the next book up on my list to read!
Another great episode. I was starting to lose interest in some of the more recent episodes, but this was very engaging for me. As some of the commentors have mentioned, I'm glad we have a wide range of topics covered on this podcast :)
Very interesting episode! One missing topic I would have loved to be covered is different investing approaches / philosophies in a relationship. I myself am very much a boglehead/index fund investor and am comfortable investing a large portion of my capital since I'm 40 years away from retirement. My girlfriend on the other hand is very risk averse and refuses to invest in the stock market at all (she has some old fashioned principles on this topic). How do you cope with that - sure 7 years in both have their own money and can do whatever they want but at some point with children etc. it will be OUR money. So how can one approach this topic?
Just keep 1 account all your income goes into, retirement saving comes out as soon as the money going in or deducted from paycheck before deposited to your bank account, then you can happily spend what’s left for household & yourself. Discuss anything over certain amount & be kind to each other. Keep it simple, life is complicated enough.
Men, do not hesitate for one moment to put a restraining order against your female partner if you feel your safety and health is in jeopardy. Placing a permanent restraining order on my female ex-partner was absolutely the wisest protective move of my adult lifetime. My only regret is not doing it years earlier. Men, be safe!

I am an extreme tightwad in a family of 2 spendthrifts. I feel like I have to become an even tighter tightwad to compensate for their behaviors.

As the extreme tightwad, this was extremely interesting and I am absolutely not ready to do what is better for my happiness yet.

Great topic guys! I'd love to hear more on this subject in the future

I don't have time to watch this video right now. But I will watch it later.
