What's up?

Hey, calling for some advice and just kind of your thoughts on best next steps here.

My wife and I can't seem to align kind of financially.

Money, you know, things that we need versus wants in our life.

and so forth.

So I'm just calling to kind of get some advice here, man.

A hundred percent.

So I, uh, I always say I don't need much roof over our head, food on the table, right?

We've got three young, three kids at home, 12, nine and seven.

So certainly in the thick of it there.

Um, and I, it's almost like, I think I feel like you're exactly right, but I'm just having a hard time being able to really sit down and have an open conversation about that.

So just thinking about the future, right?

We live in one of the most expensive parts of the world, which is a big factor, right?

But just aligning on what kind of cars do we need versus want, right?

We obviously, we're renting a home right now.

Obviously, I want to buy a house, but...

Buying a house in Southern California isn't the big investment, right?

You've got to have a lot of cash down payment, you know, and all that good stuff.

Yeah, and that's what it's starting to feel like for sure.

Yeah, we try to have conversations open like that, but I feel like the walls are up, definitely with some resentment.
