“Her socks have holes but she's too cheap to buy new ones”

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Matt (34) and Eliza (32) who have spent years prioritizing investments, setting themselves up for a secure retirement. Now, they struggle to enjoy spending money—Matt deprives himself when they go out, while Eliza avoids spending altogether. Their extreme frugality is keeping them from living the full life they could, and with their first baby on the way, the pressure is mounting. Can they shift their money mindset, find balance, and start truly living their Rich Life? 💡 RAMIT’S PODCAST NEWSLETTER * I share new ways to think about money every Saturday.
