Life Kit · A financial planner's advice for spending without guilt · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

And that is so valuable to me

But you're right.

He feels a lot of guilt as, you know, there's the stigma of like male versus female and, you know, the breadwinner.

And then there's cultural, you know, my spouse is Colombian.

And there's just, you know, so much of I want to be able to contribute and just reminding the other person like, hey, you are contributing.

You're just contributing differently.

The monetary contribution does not make me more powerful than you.

We are a team that are working together and everybody's contribution to this family is very valuable.

So having that conversation once again is so important to be able to help your significant other work through that guilt if that is something they're experiencing.

It's a conversation where we have to just kind of unroll the idea of, you know, who are these people that you feel obligated to?

Why do you feel like you cannot enjoy what you have just because they don't?

Why do you feel obligated to help them if that is something that you're feeling?

And why do you feel obligated to, you know, to kind of over-save?

Because that's something that I see quite a bit as well.

Is it just not spending any money whatsoever because they feel guilty about enjoying?

And so now they just have this stockpile of money, not because there's like a financial goal or a big savings goal that they have.

It's just like, I don't feel good about spending it.

And so the way to work through that piece of the puzzle is to think about this, like, OK, I don't feel good about spending this money.

But so and so, you know, fill in the blank with the person that you think is less or less off.

What would they want for you?
