| 27 Nov 2024 | Our Most Embarrassing Money Mistakes (A Financial Roast) | Two Cents Podcast | 00:26:21 | |
Welcome to our financial roast! 🦃 From bulk ordering woes and forgetful spending to costly orthodontic journeys and unexpected money pits, we "thoughtfully" roast each other's financial habits. Hannah shares her struggles with remembering expenses (and losing $3,000 on orthodontics), while James reflects on unhealthy habits and his costly love for motorcycles! Our goal? To reflect on our money values, address financial trauma, and work together to improve our worst financial habits. 🤝 Don’t miss this honest, relatable (and slightly embarrassing) look at how we navigate money as a married couple. 👉 What’s your worst financial habit that you'd like to improve in the new year?
