Co-host Joe recounts a personal financial misstep: putting his honeymoon entirely on credit cards. This experience led to significant debt and a feeling of remorse, highlighting the danger of believing one 'deserves' luxuries they cannot yet afford.
“I remember in the early days, OG, when I had no money. Well, let's put it very bluntly. My honeymoon was all on credit cards. 100%. Same was mine. Building credit card debt. I was going the wrong way. I felt horrible afterwards. I spent a bunch of money I didn't have because I thought that we deserved it.”
“Remember when Buffy Percell was on the show and she said the three most horrible words a broke person could say is I deserve it.”
