How To Get Rich With Ramit Sethi

Today's Hot Topic tackles a recurring theme among our Shandies' questions: MONEY, BABY!! 💵💵💵 We're joined by superstar Ramit Sethi, who not only wrote 2009's megahit and NYT bestseller "I Will Teach You To Be Rich", but whose very own Netflix show, "How To Get Rich" just premiered on April 18th! Today Ramit begins by helping us define what our own individual "Rich Life" looks like. But he goes even further with the clearest, most concise, direct answers to your most burning relationship-meets-money questions: When one partner has a significantly higher income, should that be reflected in the bills? When and how should you bring up your debt with your partner? Is there a "gold standard" when it comes to shared and separate bank accounts? And what about PRENUPS?? What bank accounts and credit cards does Ramit himself use? (Oh yeah, we go there!) Listen on for your lesson in getting RICH.

Om Podcasten

Dear Shandy is a dating advice podcast where Sharleen Joynt and her husband Andy Levine answer your burning relationship questions from the perspective of a happily married couple. Sharleen and Andy are two fiercely independent people who are skeptical of love stories and don’t believe in fate, soulmates, or The One. So how did they wind up so happily married? They learned the dating lessons by living them. Get no-holds-barred, honest advice from two people who actually have what you want: a fun, blissful partnership. But there's more! As an iconic former Bachelor contestant, Sharleen invites Bachelor Nation couples on for intimate double dates called Love Fests. Last, but certainly not least, Sharleen brings her insider knowledge and Andy delivers hilarious comic relief to combine for what are hands down the best Bachelor recaps in the business. New episodes drop every Thursday, and during Bachelor seasons, recaps drop on Tuesdays!
