    Mailbag: Take 36 Hours Before Posting A Video Of You Getting Fired

    Gray divorce needs no reason. A listener lists every single person Gabe knows. Another writes in to ask for advice for their brother who is about to move in with their partner with whom they don't have a good history of talking about money. Buy Nothing groups rule the day. Are those videos of people getting fired on TikTok actually real?? Have you ever done this??

    The Billionaire's Assistant with Carrie Sun

    The Billionaire's Assistant with Carrie Sun

    This one is a SHOCKER. Author Carrie Sun worked for years as the assistant to a billionaire optimizing every second of life, even rest. We talk about the reality and secrets of this kind of fast-paced, grinding in finance. It's giving The Devil Wears Prada but with men and worse and no one even has cool clothes. You're not going to want to miss this. (Plus, what show has a character based on Carrie?)

Love the show but SO many ads

I love this show and feel like I’ve learned lots of things, but oh my god there are so many ads now. The mail bag episodes are literally half ads. It wouldn’t be so bad if they’re weren’t so many in a row, but I’ll be driving listening to the podcast and all of the sudden there’s just six full minutes of ads. I don’t like to hit the skip ahead button when I’m driving but six minutes is like a third of my commute. So overall, actual content is good but too many ads.

Great show

Gabe is relatable and asks questions that so many of us have but feel dumb asking. Great guests, honest realities of life and finances. So disappointed hear Gabe say people have been complaining about the ads! Listening to ads is a free-to-us, obscenely easy way to make sure creators get paid for their great work that we get to consume for zero dollars. And on top of it, there are not that many ads at all!

Beginners Guide to Finance!

Love this podcast. Have been listening for 4-5 years and really appreciate the approachable, down to earth way that Gabe and the guests introduce different finance topics. The recent episode “a very soothing retirement episode” really was exactly as described and I found it really reassuring. This podcast and all the work Gabe does helped me build up courage to start investing and I definitely feel more financially competent than I was before I started listening. Thank you!
