From Basement Beginnings to Million-Dollar Dreams (with Rudy Mawer) SB1666 1:18:43

約 18 日前1:18:43

1:18:43

Entrepreneurship, financial anxiety, and a guinea pig (yes, really). When you’ve got a stuffed guinea pig on your desk and a mic in front of you, it’s only a matter of time before you talk about that one time you ate guinea pig in Peru. (Spoiler: It was pretty good.) That’s how we open today’s show—but from there, things get real. Today’s main event features Rudy Mawer , founder of 60 Day Hustle , who joins Joe Saul-Sehy to share his incredible story. Rudy grew up in a modest home in England, raised by two world-class triathletes who pushed him to pursue excellence. He didn’t come from wealth—but he did build it, and fast. Rudy opens up about: His path from sports scientist to serial entrepreneur The role mentorship and strategic networking played in his success Why legacy matters just as much as hustle His latest documentary project and what drives him today Then, we turn to a conversation sparked by actor Seth Rogen’s recent interview with Dax Shepard. Rogen confessed he’s spent years saving out of fear—and maybe missed out on life in the process. So we ask: Are you hoarding cash out of anxiety? What happens when your savings plan becomes a cage? And how can Stackers find balance between security and spontaneity? Finally, we wrap up with one heck of a weather report. Mom’s neighbor Doug recounts the epic ice storm that left him snowed in, powered down, and questioning all his life choices. (Okay, maybe not all of them—but definitely his chainsaw strategy.) As always, Doug brings the trivia heat (and a little airline history), and we share some listener reflections that tie it all together. It’s a jam-packed episode—from financial fear to frozen driveways—with a little Peruvian culinary adventure tossed in.

Is good debt a myth? Should we all chase FIRE? The basement panel weighs in. In today’s Financial Concepts Friday roundtable, Joe brings the basement crew together for a lively “In or Out” debate on some of the most polarizing personal finance topics out there. Are we in or out on the idea of “good debt”? Do budgets really matter when you’re just starting out? Should you talk about money with your friends and family… or is that still taboo? Joining Joe are three financial thinkers who aren’t afraid to stir the pot: Paula Pant from Afford Anything Jesse Cramer from The Personal Finance for Long Term Investors Show OG from our own basement think tank (and planning headquarters) Together, they dig into: Whether any debt can actually be considered good If living without a budget is a fast track to financial regret—or freedom The upside (and awkwardness) of open money conversations How FIRE goals like retiring by 35 sound… and feel, once you really unpack them Plus, Mom’s neighbor Doug drops by with a trivia challenge that’ll have you laughing (and maybe yelling at your speaker). And of course, we wrap up with reflections that’ll leave you both entertained and a little bit wiser.

Is financial literacy missing from your life like that sock you swear went in the dryer? Tiffany Aliche, AKA The Budgetnista, is here to help you find it—minus the lint. She shares her journey to financial wholeness and takes us behind the scenes of her brand-new PBS special. Meanwhile, Joe and OG break down why financial education starts with community (not overpriced guru courses), why ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ is the financial equivalent of eating fast food in your car—feels great now, but you’ll regret it later—and how even a trip to Texarkana can teach you a thing or two about money. Plus, a story involving World War II espionage that somehow made its way into the mix. Here’s what’s on tap this week: Kicking off Monday with a solid dose of grumpiness (and a passionate store-brand rant). Hanging with The Budgetnista—Tiffany Aliche takes us behind the scenes. Why financial literacy isn’t just about numbers—it’s about community. The sneaky financial traps that might be eating your wallet alive. Tiffany’s PBS special—how she tackled stage fright and delivered a knockout show. Headlines that made us go “Wait, WHAT?!”—including Klarna and DoorDash teaming up. ‘Buy Now, Pay Later’—why it’s like borrowing money from Future You (and Future You is not happy about it). Mortgage strategies, financial independence, and the art of dodging debt. Could you survive a week on cash only? One of us is trying (and maybe crying). Food waste: it’s not just bad for the planet—it’s silently draining your bank account. Upcoming meetups, tax tips, and basement-style money wisdom you can actually use. And if you stick around long enough, well… who knows what else might show up?
