Description
Content Encoded

In this episode, I share my hot take on a recent money confession from a listener: “I used my entire retirement fund, around $15,000, to pay for a 2-month European trip. I don’t have any retirement funds, and I’m in my 30s. I feel like I made a big mistake. I haven’t shared it with anyone until now. Was this the stupidest way to spend my money?" As we break down this money confession, I'll explore my tips and food for thought.
