How can you build wealth without starting a business?
Elizabeth, are you ready to keep it real? Like, really real? So real that people might be shocked by what you're saying?
I think that's my default, Sean. As a recovering oversharer, I am well-versed in realness.
You know, I think that's why we get along so well. Well, this episode, we're doing another round of Money Hot Takes, where we lay out the nerdy truths about money that people might not be ready to hear, but it's our job to do it anyway. So buckle up. Welcome to NerdWallet's Smart Money Podcast, where you send us your money questions and we answer them with the help of our genius nerds.
I'm Sean Piles.
And I'm Elizabeth Ayola. This episode, we talk with a married couple about how they manage their finances together. even when they don't agree on what they want to do with their money.
But first, you heard us up top. It's time for another round of Money Hot Takes. If you are new here, this is how it works. Elizabeth and I have 100 seconds on the clock to rail against something in the personal finance space that we are annoyed by or simply don't like.
because there's a lot of misinformation or just misguided stuff that happens around money, and it's our solemn, nerdy duty to impose our perspective on listeners every so often. Elizabeth, this is your very first Money Hot Take segment, so you have the honor of going first. Are you ready?
I stay ready, Sean.
Okay, okay. I'm setting my timer to 100 seconds. Three, two, one, go.
