How does data privacy advertising segue into family finance advice?

Unknown 0:00
Most people don't realize how much of their personal information is being bought and sold every day. Data brokers are making billions pulling details about you from public records and the internet, then packaging and selling it, usually without your consent. That's how your information lands in the hands of scammers, spammers, even stalkers. That's where Aura comes in. Aura actively removes your data from broker sites and keeps it off. They also instantly alert you if your information shows up in a breach or on the dark web. But Aura goes beyond data protection. With one app, you get a VPN, antivirus, password manager, spam call protection, dark web monitoring, and even up to $5 million in identity theft insurance.

All backed by 24-7 US-based fraud support. Other companies might just sell credit monitoring or just a VPN. Aura gives you all of that together at the same price competitors charge for just one service. Start your free trial today at aura.com slash prevent. Protect yourself now at aura.com slash prevent.

Welcome back. Ladies and gentlemen, you're listening to another edition of DIY Money. DIY Money. Okay, Logan, we put out a soapbox episode just the other day and gotten a lot of incredible feedback on that, so I love that. We won't stick to this theme too much, but I think it's important to maybe follow that up a little bit with the marriage aspect. So it's one thing, because we hit on one of the things that we talked about in there was, you know, saying no and making sure you're on the same page with your spouse and you brought up an amazing point that something had happened to you the previous night and you know it's so on and so forth and Hannah was on the same page with you and how important that was but so often we don't see that we see conflict and

in a marriage or a couple around money. So I want to touch base on that a little bit. And again, if you're new to the show, someone forwarded you the last one, and you're listening to this one, you're like, oh, these guys just talk. We actually do take questions. We actually get into the weeds a lot on the questions, and they're great. But we're deviating into that a little bit right now because we're very passionate about what's happening in the environment and the fact that most people out there right now tend to be spending money they don't have.
Logan (host) 2:42
Yeah, they're overextending themselves. They're over their skis, and we're seeing that a lot. And one of the biggest things that we are seeing as well, just like we're mentioning, is that people are not on the same page in their relationships. They are not going after the same goals. They don't have defined roles. All of those things that are really causing issues and creating more of the debt side of things that... is frankly very, very concerning that we're looking at. So I want to kind of start and lay out the groundwork for this. And you write about this in the book, DIY Money as well, Quint. That was a shameless plug. I think one of the biggest, most important things is defining the roles that each of you are going to take in the financial journey.
Logan (host) 3:23
So talk a little bit about how you did that with Brandy when you guys were first starting out. Obviously, you're in the finance industry. I am as well. But how you kind of define that and... brought it into your marriage and make sure that you guys are touching base on finances on a regular basis?
Quint (host) 3:38
The defining part was easy, but understanding what those roles were were difficult. And so I'll address this from the definition standpoint first, and I'll touch on that because sometimes that can be the hang-up. There's usually one person in the marriage or relationship that is much more OCD and organized and certainly interested in this subject matter. And that's the person who should act as the family CFO. Now, the reason I say CFO and I talk about it in that construct is you must think of – and this right here –
