Great pod

This pod has really helped me. I went from penny stocks and gambling on horses as my primary retirement investment source to following the advice of these two. Wish they would get more into obscure crypto, that and water reserves are where it’s at y’all.

DontReadToMe ,

Relatable

The power of this pod is this is the relatability of the hosts. The content is practical, uncomplicated, and insightful - perfect for a mid 30s dad who (should) doesn’t put enough much thought into family finances because it feels complicated when it really isn’t.
