“We rushed into buying a $730K house. Now I can’t sleep at night”

Description

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Jonathan and Shalom. They are young, 31 and 27, have been married for 5 years and they're getting used to a big addition to their lives—a rushed home purchase in the Pacific Northwest that tints their relationship with conflict. Jonathan buries himself in the numbers. Shalom buries her head in the sand. – 🚨 GET RAMIT SETHI’S WEEKLY MONEY NEWSLETTER * I share news ways to think about money every Saturday.
