This week, Chris and I are doing something a little different. We asked our community to submit their biggest money questions, and we're answering them — live, on the spot, with no sneak peeks at each other's answers beforehand. It's a fun, honest, sometimes surprising conversation about how we think about money as a couple.
In this episode, we cover:
A bonus question: who's really the "authoritative one" in our relationship
Whether we'd hand a 25-year-old $100K (and what parameters we'd put around it)
The classic debate: pay off a 3% mortgage or invest that money instead
Owning vs. renting a vacation property
Would we give up travel for five years to retire five years earlier? (Short answer: not a chance)
Do we tell each other about every purchase? Plus, the early years when we were in financial survival mode
Lending money to family
Would we buy our kids a house? What we'd actually do instead
The big one: would we keep working with $10 million in the bank? (Chris's answer genuinely surprised me)
A personal story about my parents' recent move at 81 and 83, and the reminder that there's no guarantee of "the right time"
Let's dive in!
