I don't think I've needed like rehab. I think I've played it safe, which is nice because I feel like I've never been in like dangerous debt, but I've also never really known what to do. I feel like my financial situation has gone from like the powers of my father to the powers of my ex-husband. And now I'm a year divorced. So now I'm like, well, I guess nobody's coming to save me.
I should have a plan. What's my plan?
Now the powers are with you. Yeah. Which is exciting. It's exciting. I play it safe. I don't overspend, but I also don't invest. So I start investing. I probably should. Right.
Yes. I guess I don't fully believe that that's possible. Why not? I don't know. I feel like it's always a risk to do something with your money. And I guess I'm afraid because I don't feel like I know enough about how to do it right.
Yeah. I don't know why I don't do that. Let's do it. Yeah. Today's the day. Today's the day. I thought you were going to be like, invest in crypto.
Absolutely not. There's one of the sweatshirts there that says, told you so, crypto bro. Oh my God. I need to wear that. We're going to get when I see my ex-husband tomorrow and be like, told you so, crypto bro. Is he a crypto guy? He's definitely one of those Feels like he's on the leading edge of something, but it really scares me. But it always ends up working out okay for him.
I don't know what happened with his crypto stuff. That's the other thing, like when you go through a divorce with the finances. The crypto is just, you can't really do much for it. I don't even think a court can order somebody to show their crypto.
So when you were going through it, what did... I just didn't ask and we didn't touch it. And that was it. That was that. So you didn't get any of it? No, I didn't get any cryptos. But do I want them? I don't think that they're there anymore anyway. Some kinds of crypto, maybe. Maybe. Do you know what kind? Bitcoin? It was Bitcoin and Ethereum. Yeah, you might want some. Yeah, maybe. I don't know.
That's done with. He can have his fake money.
The transition's been such a learning experience. I think you get better the more you do something. I did have a co-host in the beginning of my podcast, so that was nice for somebody to be there to help. kind of help the conversation along. And then just with my divorce, I mean, I guess it's kind of two separate subjects, but it paralleled that.
Like when I started, my podcast was actually when I also first moved into a place by myself. So it was kind of like just the season of becoming very independent and I think that's scary, but also it builds a certain self-esteem that I think you can't do when you have a partner, whether it's a co-host or a husband. So I think I've become a little bit stronger along the way.
Yeah, for sure. Not really an option.
Yes. You always lived with somebody? Yes. I never didn't have a roommate. I was never afraid to live alone. It was just, first of all, why would you live alone when you're a young girl and you can split rent with somebody else? So I just always had a roommate. And then I met my ex and I lived with him. We And after, so we bought a house together and we were married. He bought me out of that.
And then now I'm renting. And next year, I think I want to buy. But it just feels like such a weird time to buy. Like, I feel, especially in Southern California, it's like what you can get, I don't know, because mortgage interest rates are so high and... It just feels like a scary time to buy. So I've been renting.
And also because when you move out of a house for the first time, I needed to move somewhere. And so I didn't want to pull the trigger and buy something. And then maybe it was going to work. Maybe it wasn't.
Well, I just hate the idea of the money kind of being thrown away every month. But it's true. It seems like it's been the best option for me right now. Do you feel like renting is good for some people?
That's true.
Yeah, I don't know. I think I have this old school idea of property being the only way to invest. Probably my dad. He was one of those people who bought up a bunch in 2008, bought a bunch of property and made a lot.
Yeah, I know. That's the only way that I've learned is like a safe way to invest your money.
I do feel like it's overpriced because when I like what I pay for rent and what, for instance, my sister pays the same amount in a mortgage and her house is five times the size of mine. Rent is just and we live in comparable neighborhoods in Southern California. But she bought her house a couple of years ago. I just started renting last year.
