I Will Teach You To Be Rich

Күн бұрын

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Kirsten and Jon, both 34, raising two young boys in Canada. Kirsten, an engineer, is all about problems and solutions, going as far as "parenting" Jon when he overspends. Jon avoids money talk like the plague, even giving up his use of the joint credit card to avoid further static at home.

ramit the people on your show are legit but, holly are they ever spoiled. It is only in the US where you can have a bachelors degree 4 years of schooling and get a JOB not even be a risk taking business man or woman, and earn 18k per month. These ppl need to kiss the dirt of the country they live in. Every where else you are luck if you are twice as educated and qualified doing the same job to earn half that. Including Canada, a nurse here clears 5k if he is lucky, an engineer clears 7k at best. I know couples with doctorates who do not clear 15 as a couple. The US is 100 percent the land of opportunity by all definitions, unless you are a pure moron.

This is one of the best podcasts on finances that I’ve heard/seen. This couple is so much like my husband and myself, but without their level of finances, even at twice their age. I overwork our finances. My husband for most of our life together has ignored our finances. He now lets me handle it all but if he’s confused or things are not as he thinks they should be, he takes more of a parental role scolding me and I get defensive. We have a monthly financial meeting where I bring him the numbers, but it isn’t a partnership. It’s me doing all the work, all the management, all the figuring out, and he tells me if he approves. Listening and watching this courageous couple work through this so beautifully with you Ramit, has encouraged me to think differently. I will have a conversation with my husband and talk about this podcast episode and see if he’ll watch this with me. It’s so important for couples to both be on board with finances and work together as partners. I wish them luck and would love to hear from them again in six months to see what they’ve accomplished.

This one made me cry. I think this couple might mirror myself and my husband the most closely out of all the episodes I've seen. I thought it was my husband "ignoring" finances because he doesn't care. But it occurred to me listening to Jon speak so bravely and openly about his internalized fears of incompetence wifh money... That my husband has actually voiced before that I'm "smarter" than him... Which is ludicrous to me because he's genuinely SO crazy intelligent. We just happen to have different areas of expertise. I forget that he might truly believe he's not enough for the partnership when it comes to areas like finance. 💔 Thank you so much Kristin and Jon, and Ramit as well. You've opened my eyes today and taught me things about my own marriage. I'm seeing new doorways into better supporting my husband and encouraging him to come alongside me as a partner, while we figure it out together. I could be so much kinder about it all too, respecting that he is wading into the unfamiliar water of finances-I want to be a buoy to lift him up and help him garner a sense of capability and control, not an anchor pulling him deeper than he's ready for.

Family planning is so important. Try to plan for those children and have the programs in place before you have children, things such as an emergency fund and discussions about children and what that means financially in the chapters of your lives. I had a housekeeper before I got married. I was able to attend school, have a full time and part-time job and start a company. That housekeeper was so valuable to my life. I think this couple could have a date night weekly, even a few hours to hang out and financial planning on another day. Interesting is how you can tell they care for each other. This was very cool. Maybe take notes to save for the meeting.

I love this question, because my parents were bad with money (if they had money, they were spending it), but they gave me full transparency. My friends, as I found out later in life, had no idea how much their parents made or how much was needed for mortgage, food, etc. The one thing I did learn from my friends was how the market worked (I still only buy index funds), and how to invest a piece of each check and leave it to compound long-term. I learned with my friends, though, and they learned from me.

Great episode! Small question, (maybe i missed it), but what was the breakdown of who was bringing in the $18.3k/month? Not sure if it is the same case here, but the trend i've noticed in all these podcasts is that the lower income earner often feels that because their partner earns more, their partner understand money better. So therefore, because I earn less, i will never be able to understand money as well as the higher income earner and i am not qualified to manage the money. Plus, im not the one bringing in the money, so who am I to manage it. Obviously, this thinking is flawed because a low income earner can be better with money than a high income earner. But based off this trend, i assume he brings in less money and feels this way. I could be totally wrong, would be interesting to know if that is the case here.

It’s also overlapped with the fact that if your partner runs a business, is an engineer or computer scientist or other high paying fields they are usually good at math. You’d assume they are going to make good financial decisions and plans as they can understand the math at an extremely high level. Whereas I understand money enough to get by but I’m not genius.

I haven't heard it on this episode or show, but it's definitely something I've seen in other places. Sometimes it's a case of the lower income (or sometimes SAH parent) intentionally backing off, other times it's the higher income one pushing the other away, which I find unhealthy since it's supposed to be a team effort.

If I may, the issue is not with the credit card or with regular spending. The issue is an addiction to gambling in mobile games. I know these types of games well and they are all designed to have a loot box (aka gambling) component to them. These games are sinister and the pricing for in-game currency are so jaw-droppingly inflated that anyone who doesn't game will likely think the developers are insane.... yet they sell. There's no end to the spending in these games. Once you spend all that money getting the best characters or items in the game, they release a new, better, shinier, character you must have, and the cycle continues.

I get what you're saying, but that's a little simplistic. The answer is, as always, priorities. The better question is why they choose the babysitter over the credit card. The "if you can afford x, why can't you do y" question is heavily reductive and ignores the key element here - the psychology.

They have no debt and a net worth of $700k in their 30s. They can afford to pay their credit cards every month (and it sounds like they do).

Unfortunately, it is true though. My husband is the same way. I don’t know if it’s because I make more than twice what he makes, but when it comes to financial things I feel like his my “child” and I’m in charge of the budget. As much as I I’ve asked him to do it with me, he won’t. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@@EmilyLucille523stop asking an start doing, he needs to literally see the things you do. They only way he can is by it hitting him in the face. You are not his mom or rebound to fix his shortcomings. Yes it may bother you but until you stop, he wont start. Also he might make mistakes and play that whole weaponized incompetence thing. The same way you can do them he can and he will. These people need to learn from their mistakes.

​@@EmilyLucille523do you involve him in planning your finances? Or do you scold him for not knowing / doing what should be obvious with money? I ask because often times, people just don't have the education around money, and we project our assumptions of knowledge on them.
