In this episode, we expose our guilty pleasures, our crazy bachelor spendings and discuss how we've reprioritised expenses after kids.
How do we spend right? Do we provide enough? Is there generational curse of the silent dad still around?
We still have a lot to learn, but here's what we've got so far.
Join us as we figure things out the best we can.

I'm a 21-year-old female working as a freelancer and trying to figure everything out. This podcast has helped me so much and has been eye-opening about finances. Thanks a lot, guys.

Omg yes, I've been wondering about the 2nd ep. Love it when Ming Han tries to reign it in so everyone (or maybe just Dennis hahaha) sticks to the topic but Dennis going off tangent is low-key one of the funniest bits. Or maybe cos my sleep deprived mom brain can relate to all the zigzags hahaha. Speaking of guilty pleasures like Jon's, I'm sure my husband can resonate with that. 😂 From the perspective of a wife though, this is perhaps one of the important transitions a man makes as he evolves as a dad. Same goes to getting the fulfillment from being able to provide, as described by Ming Han. Overall great topics, guys. I hope more dads watch this series cos I also personally know a few millennial dads who don't feel comfortable sharing things like this with their peers. Sadly, the "men should suffer silently" thing still happens. Being a parent is no easy task. It shouldn't be a lonely journey. I believe we can still soldier on with the support and understanding from our friends and family 🙌

Very good insights from your experiences! I’ve been enjoying the podcast a lot! As a woman, it makes me reflect on my dad and how it would be with my future husband and whenever we become parents. Everything is really a journey!
