And I think that we are ready to actually have conversations about how we are irrational.

Money is not just dollars and cents on a page.

That's why you don't feel good about money, even when you have more than you ever thought you would.

That's why you worry about money, but you have never read a single book on personal finance.

We are all irrational, including me.

And when you get into a relationship,

you got to acknowledge that.

And then you get to say, hey, what is our vision of a rich life together?

Let's build that.

If it means we do a little dance about the credit card once every two months, fine.

Do we both feel good?

Is it fair?

Then I'm good with it.

We all have these things that society has told us, but then we don't quite agree and we're not sure what to do.

Last time I was here, we talked about how you don't necessarily need to buy a house in order to live a rich life.

And in my case, I have rented for the last 20 years by choice, and I made more money renting and investing the difference than I would have by buying a house.

And this is shocking to people.

Like, we saw the comments last time.

People went, berserk.

How can you talk about renting?
