Yeah, just so nice, just the I think 327 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 4: like when you just turin on the hot tap, like 328 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 4: it doesn't actually get too hot these days anyway, that 329 00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,439 Speaker 4: should do and that will ask you hopefull of the night. 330 00:14:00,800 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 4: Which yeah, I love this. I actually really like this 331 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 4: broke tip and my one. This one is not so 332 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 4: broke that you can't use Uber. This is like I 333 00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 4: can use Uber, but I'm also trying to save money. 334 00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 4: So I've noticed that if I'm trying to order an Uber, 335 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 4: I'll go into the Uber app, I'll put in my destination. 336 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 4: I'll leave the app three, four, maybe five times. So 337 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,400 Speaker 4: you got to start this early. 338 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 2: You can't be meet. 339 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,120 Speaker 4: You got to start this very early. Each time you 340 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 4: leave the app, it gives you a little discount. I 341 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 4: know this what happened all the time, but with me, 342 00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 4: it did. It went I was getting an Uber from 343 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 4: my friend and I was kind of just like waiting 344 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:41,120 Speaker 4: for her response. So this was just completely accidental that 345 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 4: I happened upon this. It started at about thirty dollars, 346 00:14:44,600 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 4: and then it went all the way down to I 347 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 4: literally think from memory it was thirteen dollars. It went 348 00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 4: from thirty dollars to thirteen. 349 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 2: Dollars just like a thirde time. 350 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 4: No, it wasn't, it was just a regular time. It 351 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 4: just kept like saying, hey, are you forgetting something or 352 00:14:58,800 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 4: you know this is still just do you need to ride? 353 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,840 Speaker 4: Here's twenty percent off, blah blah blah. It went all 354 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 4: the way down. I just couldn't believe it. So while 355 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 4: I was waiting for her response, I just kept like 356 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:10,000 Speaker 4: opening it and seeing what it's a going out of 357 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 4: it again and blah blah blah. So I just it 358 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 4: was completely accidental. And so now anytime I need an Uber, 359 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 4: I do this and it maybe it takes about ten minutes, 360 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,000 Speaker 4: but give it a try. 361 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 2: I like that. I've been using d D recently because 362 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:27,160 Speaker 2: I feel like when Uber's surging and I'm like, I'm 363 00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,720 Speaker 2: not paying those surg prices, I go on DD and 364 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,480 Speaker 2: then I get a good ride whatever. Half the time 365 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 2: they come, the car comes and it's got the Uber 366 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: sticker on it because the drivers are using both app 367 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: switch get it Queen's But my favorite thing about dd is. 368 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:42,600 Speaker 2: If you don't use it for a while, they send 369 00:15:42,640 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: you vouchers. They're like, oh, here's ten dollars off your 370 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,120 Speaker 2: next ride, and you're like, ha ha, I'll just stah 371 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 2: that one away for future game the system. I'm all 372 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,600 Speaker 2: about gaming the system. I love that back. I feel 373 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 2: like that was very wholesome, little bit festive, little bit smart. Also, yeah, 374 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,440 Speaker 2: good money wins. Absolutely, I'm just fish. Let's go to 375 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 2: a really quick break and on the flip side, we're 376 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,880 Speaker 2: going to be unpacking how to make your superwork harder 377 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 2: for you, which is definitely something we all want.

Love the podcast and 393 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 5: all that you do. In the spirit of financial literacy 394 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 5: and investing in my future, I've spoken to a super 395 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 5: annuation management firm. They've estimated they could increase my super 396 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:05,000 Speaker 5: from roughly seven hundred K to one point two million 397 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 5: over a thirty year period through a super fund account manager. 398 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,199 Speaker 5: Obviously this is appealing, but I don't want to go 399 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 5: in blind. Their fee is three k one off and 400 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 5: then one point six percent fee per anim of my 401 00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 5: super amount. In addition, I would have access to their 402 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,560 Speaker 5: team of financial advisors and mortgage broker for free. I 403 00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 5: want to engage these services and feel like this could 404 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 5: be a great one stop shop. But are these fees typical? 405 00:17:29,320 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 5: I know nothing is guaranteed in terms of future super performance, 406 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:35,400 Speaker 5: but want to optimize what I can as early as possible. 407 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 2: I'm not going to comment yet because I want your comments. Guys. 408 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 2: How do you feel about that, Jess? I know you 409 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 2: know a little bit about like financial advice fees. What 410 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 2: are your thoughts and feelings? 411 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 3: I just my thoughts on financial advice in general, whether 412 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,879 Speaker 3: that's an advisor, whether that's mortgages, whether that's investments, is 413 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:58,720 Speaker 3: that if they're approaching you, I'm always. 414 00:17:58,240 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 2: Sus I'm so glad you've said that because I let 415 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 2: you go first, because I'm like sitting here with red 416 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 2: flag every we're all over this. 417 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 4: Also, they're saying I will get you from seven hundred 418 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 4: thousand to well at one point. 419 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 3: I don't know if maybe you've misunderstood the wording here 420 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: is just not making sense to me, because if they're 421 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 3: saying that they can take you from seven hundred thousand 422 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,320 Speaker 3: to one point two million and thirty years using our 423 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 3: favorite compound interest calculator, Yeah, I can tell you that 424 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 3: if you had seven hundred thousand dollars and you did 425 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 3: quite frankly, not a whole lot with it. 426 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 2: Tell me, tell me the specs you put it in. 427 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 3: Jest, put it in assuming no additional deposits. You just 428 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 3: have that seven hundred thousand that she's saying that it's 429 00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 3: there over at thirty year period, assuming an average rate 430 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,160 Speaker 3: of return of seven point five percent. 431 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,040 Speaker 2: Which is what actually is on the money we always use. 432 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 2: It is a little bit lower, a little bit more 433 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 2: conservative than the average rate of return of the Australian 434 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 2: shair market. Good job, es, I go, I'm out of 435 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:52,119 Speaker 2: a job that. 436 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,440 Speaker 3: She just told me. Well, we're estimating that you would 437 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 3: have about six million, five hundred ninety and seventy four dollars. Yeah, 438 00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 3: so in two million is severely underperforming, like union. 439 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're not even doing the bare minimum, sir, Like 440 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:06,919 Speaker 2: even if we drop it down right, because I think 441 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:09,119 Speaker 2: Jess is doing exactly what I was doing, Let's pretend 442 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,680 Speaker 2: it's an average rate of return of five percent. Because 443 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 2: if you've got seven hundred grand, girl, you are doing well. Yeah, 444 00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 2: so can we talk about how you got seven hundred 445 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,880 Speaker 2: grand in super, because like I need to know that story. 446 00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,160 Speaker 2: But if you've got seven hundred thousand dollars in super, 447 00:19:22,840 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 2: even if it's at a rate of return of five 448 00:19:25,359 --> 00:19:29,240 Speaker 2: percent BECK over thirty years, that's three point one million dollars. Wow. 449 00:19:29,240 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 2: So like, these guys, what do you need them for? 450 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 3: And you're paying them three grand? 451 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,920 Speaker 2: Off the topic, I am always so skeptical of these 452 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 2: superanuation management firms because usually, and I'm probably going to 453 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 2: make some people in the industry really angry, and I 454 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: kind of don't care. Usually, if you are a superanuation 455 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 2: management company, you're a burn and churn company. You usually 456 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: buy lists of people's phone numbers and you call them 457 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: and go, hey, Beck, we're a supermanagement firm, like we 458 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,480 Speaker 2: can help you. And you go, oh my gosh, so 459 00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 2: your license. So they go, yeah, yeah, we just got 460 00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 2: given your number. Thought you were a good person to call. 461 00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,879 Speaker 2: This happens all the time. We see it in our 462 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 2: community so often. To be honest, you would be better 463 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 2: off not paying a financial advisor to give you superannuation 464 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,359 Speaker 2: only advice for three thousand dollars and staying with a 465 00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 2: default fund in a balanced portfolio, like you would be 466 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 2: financially better off by going on the money Smart website 467 00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 2: and having a look at your super comparison tool and 468 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 2: picking that. I'm not saying that that's what you should do, 469 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 2: because if you've got seven hundred grand in super Girl, 470 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:36,800 Speaker 2: you are doing incredibly and you definitely should see an advisor, 471 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 2: but you should see a holistic wealth advisor, someone who's 472 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 2: going to go, well, what goals are we trying to achieve? 473 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 2: What does this actually look like? Why have you got 474 00:20:45,320 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: seven hundred grand in super I'm assuming if you have 475 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 2: that much in super you're probably doing well outside of 476 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 2: it and need some budget and cash flow help and 477 00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 2: some investing help, because that shouldn't be your only wealth 478 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 2: creation asset. But to me, it's a massive red flag 479 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 2: if they're then saying, but it's a really good deal, Jessica, 480 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: you can get access to our financial advisors and mortgage brokers. 481 00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. Mortgage brokers are free to begin with. Like, legally, 482 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 2: mortgage brokers cannot charge you for their services. And as 483 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 2: somebody who owns a mortgage broking firm called Zella Money, 484 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 2: I don't like, and this is coming from someone who 485 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 2: used to also own a financial advice firm, you cannot 486 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: be brilliant at everything. I picked one way and said, 487 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:31,920 Speaker 2: all right, I'm gonna have to step back because you know, 488 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 2: as the director of Zellowealth and Zella Money, they're conflicting. 489 00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: They need so much of my time to be successful. 490 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,320 Speaker 2: Zello Wealth wasn't taking on new clients, and they weren't 491 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 2: taking on new clients because I would be like, look, 492 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,680 Speaker 2: I don't have the capacity between she's on the money 493 00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 2: and growing this mortgage broking business to do the right 494 00:21:50,920 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 2: thing by clients. So I'm not taking anyone new, but 495 00:21:54,560 --> 00:21:57,320 Speaker 2: if you're doing mortgage broking and financial advice in this 496 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 2: economic situation where there's so much clients, I don't think 497 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:03,359 Speaker 2: you can be good at both. Like, and I don't 498 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 2: mean to be rude, because I do have friends who 499 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,439 Speaker 2: own mortgage broking and financial advice companies, but they're not 500 00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 2: usually volume based companies. 501 00:22:10,520 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 3: Right. 502 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 2: They might be like, Oh, Bet comes in and we 503 00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,320 Speaker 2: help her along the way, and that can be really great, Like, 504 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 2: it can be a fantastic service. However, if I'm going 505 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 2: to go get a mortgage, like we know Jess is 506 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,840 Speaker 2: on her first home by a journey, Jess, I know 507 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 2: benefits from working with someone who forty hours a week, 508 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,800 Speaker 2: day in, day out, talks about mortgages, talks to the banks, 509 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: is completely across it, so that when Jess' is like, oh, 510 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 2: what's this mean, they're like, Oh, it's talking to Westpac yesterday, 511 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 2: That's what this means. Where As often when you're a 512 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 2: financial advisor and a mortgage broker, you don't do that 513 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 2: much mortgage work because the financial advice work takes so 514 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 2: long and you're not as in touch with what's currently 515 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: going on and with the interest rates going up and 516 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 2: everything kind of in a shamble. You want someone who 517 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,880 Speaker 2: has their finger on the pulse, but like every second, 518 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 2: not you know, once or twice a week. So I'm 519 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,439 Speaker 2: quite I don't know, assertive. That's why I like you 520 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:05,240 Speaker 2: having independent experts who are great in their field, and 521 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 2: you build a little team that works for you, not 522 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,160 Speaker 2: necessarily going to a one stop shop, because, don't get 523 00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 2: me wrong, sounds perfect in theory, it's not necessarily going 524 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,040 Speaker 2: to work out that way because they're often like, oh, 525 00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: it's just a hygiene factor. Oh, just as one of 526 00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,960 Speaker 2: our financial advice clients she needs a mortgage, can you 527 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 2: just get her one? Yeah, just honestly, whatever goes through easiest. 528 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:28,719 Speaker 2: It's not putting just in the best possible position. So 529 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,919 Speaker 2: to me, I'm gonna get a lot of hate for that. 530 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 2: I'm going to don't care because I'm not even an 531 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 2: advisor anymore. But these supermanagement companies or firms or whatever 532 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 2: they're calling themselves, if they only do super and they're 533 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 2: giving you access to their you know, super advisors, you 534 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 2: don't really need that. You're probably getting it free already 535 00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 2: through your super fund. And for three thousand dollars to 536 00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 2: do initial advice for only one stream, that's a lot. 537 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:59,879 Speaker 3: Who's your first thought because we've spoken about this before, 538 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 3: but I feel like you're more similar to our listener 539 00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,760 Speaker 3: in that have you been approach based on I like 540 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:05,080 Speaker 3: this before. 541 00:24:05,080 --> 00:24:07,640 Speaker 4: What would your instinct be if you were totally well 542 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,560 Speaker 4: like as you guys know, I used to like kind 543 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:13,479 Speaker 4: of work in super but I didn't initially think about 544 00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:17,000 Speaker 4: how that looked over thirty years. Like Jess, I think 545 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 4: you were like on top of it and you were like, 546 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 4: this seems really low but math math, and I guess, 547 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 4: like my my first red flag, maybe maybe my only, 548 00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 4: because I'm not it was it was a while ago, 549 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 4: you guys, so my you know, it's not fresh in 550 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 4: the mind. But my first and maybe only red flag 551 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:38,320 Speaker 4: was that if someone's guaranteeing any kind of grow. 552 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 2: Yes, that's a red flag in well. 553 00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 4: No matter what it looks like, no matter like if 554 00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,400 Speaker 4: it's pretty much guaranteed like in this case, like seven 555 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 4: hundred thousand dollars, it's probably going to grow in thirty years. 556 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 4: But even then, like guaranteeing growth in any situation, I'm 557 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 4: kind of like red flag that's not okay. Yeah, I 558 00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 4: like totally. 559 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 2: I like that also, Jess, that seven hundred thousand dollars 560 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,040 Speaker 2: to quote guarantee growth to one point two million dollars. 561 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 2: That's promising a two percent interest rate return over thirty years. Yeah, 562 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: are you happy with two percent? 563 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 4: Yes? 564 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 3: I'm getting more on my savings acount right now. I'm 565 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,120 Speaker 3: hanning like double that on my seat exactly. 566 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,800 Speaker 2: We don't settle here nor bye. I think we'll wrap 567 00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 2: it there because I obviously don't want to go too 568 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 2: too far into this but money dilemma person, could you 569 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 2: please DM me that company?

How do they get 575 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,600 Speaker 2: away with this? Look at their fees? Because if they're 576 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 2: managing you're super right. I don't mean to be rude again. 577 00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 2: There are lots of financial advisors who are very actively 578 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,159 Speaker 2: managing super in a very very constructive way. And if 579 00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,639 Speaker 2: you need a financial advisor and you're looking at this 580 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: going v where the heck and do I go.

Her husband also earns 606 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,360 Speaker 2: a good income. Combined income, I reckon would be more 607 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: than three hundred thousand dollars, and she comes from a 608 00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: very wealthy family. She invited twenty friends over for a 609 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 2: barbecue for her birthday and originally said that she's doing 610 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 2: a barbecue just byo your own booth. On the day 611 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:20,439 Speaker 2: of the barbecue, she messages everyone again and tells everyone 612 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:24,040 Speaker 2: that they have bought twenty four sausages for twenty people 613 00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:26,920 Speaker 2: and have some nibbles, and if you want something else 614 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: for the barbecue, then you need to bring whatever you 615 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,080 Speaker 2: would want for yourself.

I mean, obviously I'm not making anyone new, 641 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,400 Speaker 4: even one of them, but I just think due to 642 00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 4: the economy right now, due to the cost of living, due. 643 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 2: To what do you call it V when you lifestyle creep. 644 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,600 Speaker 4: Yes, lifestyle creep and all these things, I'm like, you know, 645 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 4: it's probably not even that March at the end of 646 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 4: the day, you know what I mean, Like, it's a 647 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 4: lot for some people, but for someone who's kind of 648 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 4: this lifestyle for a long time, it's probably not that much. 649 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 4: Like I say, little Bee, I think she's allowed. 650 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:09,040 Speaker 2: I'm laughing because I feel like I know what Jess 651 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 2: is gonna say, because like she's got an Italian background haha. 652 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 2: And like I had like a little dinner the other 653 00:29:15,280 --> 00:29:17,800 Speaker 2: night with a couple of girlfriends over and Jess was there, 654 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 2: and like I said, now it's all catered, like booze 655 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: and food, don't worry, don't bring anything. She still brought stuff. 656 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 2: Obviously it's Jess. So I'm just like, what is your thoughts, Jess. 657 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 3: I'm kind of into minds because I do if I 658 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 3: was to host personally, I would take care of everything. 659 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 3: But I think it's a very dangerous game to start 660 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 3: implying that just because someone earns more than you, they 661 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 3: should or should not be able to pay more for something. 662 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,680 Speaker 3: And I guess the timeframe thing is definitely I suppose 663 00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,040 Speaker 3: the here for me. I think if you want people 664 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,080 Speaker 3: to bring their own stuff, that's so fine. Set that 665 00:29:53,200 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 3: expectation at the beginning, invite them to the part. Yeah, 666 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:58,040 Speaker 3: because some people might be in the position where they 667 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,680 Speaker 3: can't afford to bring a plate or can't afford to something, 668 00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 3: and so you know, they're saying yes based on assuming 669 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 3: that it's all catered. Then they realize that they have 670 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 3: to help Kate. So I think that that is the 671 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 3: thing that I don't necessarily agree with, but I think that, yeah, 672 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:12,440 Speaker 3: you're right, Like, if that's the way that you want 673 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 3: to do it, maybe they just couldn't be both cooking everything, 674 00:30:14,760 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 3: you know, or maybe there's another reason that isn't necessarily stinginess. 675 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 3: But I don't think that setting that boundary is necessarily 676 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 3: a bad thing. Yeah, it's different in different friend groups too. 677 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 3: If everybody else when they host caters for everybody and 678 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,680 Speaker 3: they're the one friend that isn't doing that, you know, 679 00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:34,479 Speaker 3: and you want to have a conversation about that by 680 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 3: all means, But I think be really gentle because you 681 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 3: don't know what someone's finances look like. 682 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:38,720 Speaker 2: Either. 683 00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 3: You don't know if they're paying off huge amounts of debt. 684 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 3: You know, maybe they've got this nice lifestyle but they're 685 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 3: living on credit cards or whatever. Like I just think 686 00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,960 Speaker 3: that the I'm kind of taking it away from the 687 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 3: original question. But I think the thing that I'm that 688 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 3: I don't love in this dilemma is that the idea 689 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 3: that just because somebody earns more, that they should have 690 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 3: a responsibility to be more financially responsible, which isn't completely watching. 691 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,959 Speaker 2: Is their budget not your budget? 692 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I know that that's not really what our 693 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 3: dilimma person is staying either, But I'm just conscious of 694 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,200 Speaker 3: that school of thought I think can be a little 695 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:15,240 Speaker 3: bit dangerous or unfair, but it is difficult. Like if 696 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 3: your friend is always doing this and everyone else is 697 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 3: paying that, I can see where that would be irritating 698 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 3: to Yes. 699 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: I think the question needs to be broken into two 700 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:26,760 Speaker 2: questions because I think that there's clearly some underlying stuff 701 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 2: going on in addition to this. Right, So the first 702 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 2: question and the real question here is my friend organized 703 00:31:34,120 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 2: to barbecue. She's having twenty people over and she said 704 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 2: she's doing the barbecue. Jest, you need to bring the boost. 705 00:31:40,800 --> 00:31:44,440 Speaker 2: All of that's fine. Last minute she tells you you 706 00:31:44,520 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 2: need to organize some food for yourself to bring to 707 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: this party. 708 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 3: Not good enough. 709 00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 2: I go, oh, that's just annoying, because like I'm the 710 00:31:51,440 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 2: type of person who'd want to prep something and chuck 711 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: it in the fridge the night before, or go to 712 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 2: the supermarket, or have a think about like, oh, I 713 00:31:58,040 --> 00:32:00,480 Speaker 2: really want to get this thing from Audi. Like to me, 714 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 2: going to somebody else's house and taking something requires a 715 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 2: bit more planning than just popping past calls on the 716 00:32:06,360 --> 00:32:08,880 Speaker 2: way there. I totally could pop class calls on the 717 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,400 Speaker 2: way there and pick up a container of snags and 718 00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: it should not be an issue because I was probably 719 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 2: going to make lunch at home anyway. 720 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 6: Right. 721 00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 2: So that's the question. During a cost of living crisis, 722 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 2: can you at the last minute bring another budget thing 723 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 2: on somebody else and be like, oh, hey, that barbecue 724 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 2: I'm having today, you actually have to go buy some 725 00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: more stuff for it. 726 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 3: Not last minute? 727 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,959 Speaker 2: Not last minute? Not fair. I think that that, to 728 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,480 Speaker 2: me is the question. The underlying issue here, to me, 729 00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:39,600 Speaker 2: is actually more about the person that's written in. I 730 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:42,480 Speaker 2: want to know why you care so much about what 731 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:44,920 Speaker 2: your friend is earning and what they're doing with their money. 732 00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:50,160 Speaker 2: Why are you guessing how much that combined household has 733 00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:54,640 Speaker 2: in income we know in today's world. And I wrote 734 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 2: an article in the Age and the City Morning Herald 735 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks ago about this that the average 736 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,360 Speaker 2: or the average couple purchasing a home now needs three 737 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: hundred thousand dollars worth of income to be really comfortable. 738 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,360 Speaker 2: So we're not talking and I'm not saying that that's 739 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 2: normal by any stretch of the imagination. But here you 740 00:33:14,960 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 2: are going, Oh, well, her husband earns a good income 741 00:33:17,120 --> 00:33:20,120 Speaker 2: and she earns good money, and they should serve me. 742 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: She comes from a wealthy family. What's that got to 743 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 2: do with her catering your barbecue? She wanted to have 744 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 2: a social gathering because the end of the day. I 745 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: was at my house one day and I was like, 746 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 2: I'd love to have Beck over for dinner. That's the conversation, 747 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 2: not what my history is, what my background is, what 748 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,960 Speaker 2: financial status I'm in. Because Beck, you could do the same. 749 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 2: You could be like, I want THEE and Jess to 750 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 2: come over for dinns. That'll be fun. Jess, I'll cook 751 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:48,640 Speaker 2: the like, bring some booze. Don't worry if you then 752 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 2: sprung it on us. Oh, by the way, you're coming 753 00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:52,680 Speaker 2: over for dinner, could you bring the food as well? 754 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,200 Speaker 2: I'd be like, rowd, I'm so excited for Beck's cooking 755 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 2: and everything to do with why you're thinking about that, 756 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:01,720 Speaker 2: And I also look at it and go, should you 757 00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: call anyone out for their stinginess? No, it's not your place. 758 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: We've talked about this on the podcast before. You don't 759 00:34:07,520 --> 00:34:10,879 Speaker 2: know what she's been through. You're assuming she's coming from 760 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 2: a very wealthy family. What if there's a lot of 761 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,200 Speaker 2: financial abuse in that wealthy family where Jess, you know, 762 00:34:17,320 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 2: mum and dad are super wealthy, and they only give 763 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 2: Jess money if Jess does a certain thing or studies 764 00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 2: something particular, or you know, is home by a certain 765 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 2: time every night, and money's really triggering for her because 766 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, it's a way that 767 00:34:31,600 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 2: other people are controlling her. 768 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 769 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 2: Yeah, What if money is really really fickle and she's 770 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 2: being stingy because she's trying to live within her means, 771 00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 2: because she never wants to rely on her family. These 772 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,280 Speaker 2: are things that we're not thinking about when calling somebody 773 00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,839 Speaker 2: else out for being stingy. And if you're calling someone 774 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:48,719 Speaker 2: out for being stingy and you don't know their whole 775 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 2: money story, you cannot say that there's got to be 776 00:34:51,680 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 2: more of a story. 777 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,560 Speaker 3: I feel like you don't label someone stingy off of 778 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 3: the back of one or two things. So I feel 779 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:59,400 Speaker 3: like we're missing a lot of context here that would. 780 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:02,880 Speaker 2: Maybe calling people stingy. I just think it's so rude. 781 00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 2: Like imagine if we called Beck stingy? Is she no? 782 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 2: You know what Beck is? She's super generous, she's good 783 00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,319 Speaker 2: at blowing all the cash, let's be honest. So is 784 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,040 Speaker 2: she being stingy or did she just not have the 785 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 2: cash for that thing right now? 786 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:14,600 Speaker 3: Yeah? 787 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:17,239 Speaker 2: Totally, And it's not a stingy Beck. 788 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: No. 789 00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:19,399 Speaker 2: I wouldn't say that at all, Like out a fight 790 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,360 Speaker 2: with her before recording, because she was like, oh, do 791 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:22,400 Speaker 2: you want me to get to your coffee? And I 792 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 2: was like, I can get my own. She's like, why 793 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 2: do you always do this? Do you know what I mean? Like, 794 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 2: it's not the stinginess that's a problem, it's your perception 795 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:33,479 Speaker 2: of it. And if you call somebody else stingy, you're 796 00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 2: judging the way that they are acting with money. You 797 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 2: need to think more about yourself, bab. 798 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, because the situation with that first question that you asked, 799 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 3: you know, is it okay to change the thing last minute? 800 00:35:43,719 --> 00:35:47,279 Speaker 3: Is an organizational thing. It's not that they're stingy. It's 801 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 3: that they've told you something last minute, yes, which is 802 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 3: a whole different thing. 803 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is very true, and that I get with 804 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,160 Speaker 2: thirty three. But she totally could have spent the one 805 00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:56,879 Speaker 2: hundred dollars and catered it better. 806 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 3: A lot of money. 807 00:35:58,440 --> 00:36:00,640 Speaker 2: Hundred dollars is a lot of money. So it's actually 808 00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 2: not that much food at the supermarket these days. 809 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 3: Oh no, I said that on literally one bag of groceries. 810 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 3: Nearly died. 811 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 2: I'm so basic. Things not in my head. Me popping 812 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 2: to the supermarket is like a thirty dollars trip, right, totally, 813 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,680 Speaker 2: Like if I haven't gotten in my head in my head, 814 00:36:14,880 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 2: we're not saying that's reality. And the other day I 815 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 2: was like looking at my receipt and I've gotten like 816 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 2: some stuff for dinner because somehow I'd eat all my 817 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 2: Marley spoons. And actually I had to go to the 818 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:27,920 Speaker 2: shops myself, rude obviously got some little treaty treats. Myself 819 00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: of course, picked up some cat and dog stuff. All fine, 820 00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:32,439 Speaker 2: what do you mean it's one hundred and twenty bucks 821 00:36:32,440 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: if there's only one bag of groceries here, sir? No, Like, 822 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:40,759 Speaker 2: is this faulty machine? It wasn't everything's just getting so expensive? 823 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 2: So I don't know. I think this underlying idea that 824 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,880 Speaker 2: you're going. Honestly, we're thirty three and she could have 825 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 2: easily spent one hundred dollars to cater that's your entitlement showing, 826 00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 2: and I don't like it. 827 00:36:52,600 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 3: Yeah. What did everybody else say? 828 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: Though? 829 00:36:54,040 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 2: All right, so they're probably gonna be nice In the main. 830 00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,839 Speaker 2: We asked you a few questions. I'll get through those, 831 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 2: then i'll tell you what people said. First question we asked, 832 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,600 Speaker 2: we said, do you think it's unreasonable for the birthday 833 00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,360 Speaker 2: girl to tell her friends to bring food to her party? 834 00:37:07,760 --> 00:37:10,560 Speaker 2: Sixty seven percent said yep, she should one hundred percent 835 00:37:10,600 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: supply more food, and thirty three percent said no, it's 836 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,320 Speaker 2: actually really normal for people to be asked to bring food, 837 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:20,279 Speaker 2: which I think is answering that initial question without yeah 838 00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:23,920 Speaker 2: the judgment. Question two, we said, if yes, and this 839 00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: was your friend, would you call them out on it? 840 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,839 Speaker 2: Thirty four percent said Yep, I would totally call them 841 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 2: out for being stingy rude. Sixty six percent of you though, 842 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,719 Speaker 2: you're on our team. Nope, it's not my place to 843 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 2: say anything. Question three, we said, do you think just 844 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 2: because someone earns a good wage and is tight with 845 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 2: their money, they should be labeled as stingy. Fifty seven 846 00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 2: percent of you said if they won't buy more than 847 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:49,840 Speaker 2: twenty four sausages, then yes, forty three percent of you 848 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 2: said no, they might be saving for something. Yeah, yes, 849 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 2: I think is fair. And then we obviously said, guys, 850 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,279 Speaker 2: what's your two cents? So here's the first comment. The 851 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,440 Speaker 2: host should have asked everyone to bring a plate from 852 00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:02,560 Speaker 2: the very start. Wouldn't have been an issue if that 853 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 2: was the case. Someone else said, you should have been 854 00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 2: really clear that it was bwayo food from the outset. 855 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:11,200 Speaker 2: Someone said, in my friend's circle, we would always bring 856 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 2: a dish anyway. Some of us earn more money than others. 857 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,080 Speaker 2: Someone said, I hate the idea that because you earn 858 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,920 Speaker 2: good money, you should be paying for other people's things. 859 00:38:21,160 --> 00:38:24,480 Speaker 2: Totally agree. It's totally okay to ask people to be 860 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 2: bringing food, but kind of rude to be showing up 861 00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 2: empty handed anyway, tbh. Jessica would never I kind of 862 00:38:32,360 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: agree with that. Jessica made the other day the best gingerbread. 863 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,919 Speaker 2: Men like them? Yeah, it's like I liked the half 864 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 2: of one I got because Jess left me with some 865 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 2: of them. Obviously, my husband got to the before me, 866 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 2: and then I saw him walking down the hallway and 867 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:48,320 Speaker 2: I'm like, what's that. He was like, it's a gingerbread 868 00:38:48,320 --> 00:38:51,000 Speaker 2: and I was like, that one was my one. He 869 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 2: was like, but you didn't need it yet, Like apparently 870 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 2: if it's just left out, it's fair game. 871 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,080 Speaker 3: Everyone for themselves. 872 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 2: It was a full fight. So Jess got the top 873 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,120 Speaker 2: with a Christmas tree. It I like, fool took it 874 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 2: off him and I was like, this is not yours. 875 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:08,360 Speaker 2: I'll thank you, thank you, thank you. Someone said always 876 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 2: play broke can't buy wine or share, but can seem 877 00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 2: to travel to Hawaii and Canada twice a year. I 878 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:18,840 Speaker 2: think that they're talking about one of their friends, which okay, 879 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 2: So you're saying that your friend values travel over buying 880 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 2: wine and wants to split the cost of an uber 881 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 2: because you both incurred that cost they're allowed. Yeah, isn't 882 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:34,479 Speaker 2: that wild? Anyway? Someone said, you guys could have gone 883 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 2: somewhere and not hosted twenty people. There were so many 884 00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:39,000 Speaker 2: other options. It's tree, you could have gone out. That's 885 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:40,120 Speaker 2: more expensive, though. 886 00:39:40,320 --> 00:39:42,560 Speaker 4: It sometimes ends up being more expensive, and I. 887 00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 2: Love a little at home little shindigla. Yeah. Someone said, 888 00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 2: if you can't afford it, don't suggest it in the 889 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 2: first place. I think it should just be the expectation 890 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 2: that's set from the outset. 891 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think it's if you don't want to pay 892 00:39:57,400 --> 00:39:59,359 Speaker 3: more than a certain amount. She just should have sent 893 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 3: the message that she sent when she first organized. Yeah, like, hey, guys, 894 00:40:02,800 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 3: I'm gonna have this many sausages and some nibbles and stuff. 895 00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 3: If you want anything else, feel free. 896 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:10,000 Speaker 2: To be Yoh. Someone said, a good wage doesn't mean 897 00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 2: that they're not in debt. Debt is not visible. They 898 00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:15,200 Speaker 2: could be paying for something large, like medical bills or 899 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 2: some debt they got into when they were younger. Totally. 900 00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 2: Someone else said, you don't actually know that you're making 901 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,839 Speaker 2: a grand assumption. What if she had a pay cut 902 00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,919 Speaker 2: or there are some personal circumstances you weren't provy too. Yeah, 903 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 2: I think she would work out well on the she's 904 00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:29,000 Speaker 2: on the money team. 905 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,439 Speaker 4: Yeah. I just want to quickly mention also, I forgot 906 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:34,280 Speaker 4: about this, but nibbles. I literally spent one hundred pinbble. 907 00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,520 Speaker 4: You want a cheese platter, so nibbles can be I'll 908 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 4: put of one hundred. 909 00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 3: Dollars depending on nibbles, could be like little kishas or 910 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 3: party pies or like something that if you have that 911 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,439 Speaker 3: alongside your larger meal like box it out. 912 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 4: Yes, totally, I agree. 913 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:53,279 Speaker 2: I've been trying to do like cheaper things. So the 914 00:40:53,320 --> 00:40:55,920 Speaker 2: other night when the girls came over, I didn't do 915 00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,640 Speaker 2: a big cheese platter because they are so expensive to 916 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 2: pull together. But I did do like, and I'm famous 917 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:04,600 Speaker 2: for this, It's on Instagram if you want it, but 918 00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,799 Speaker 2: a baked bree because like it's quite hefty, but like, 919 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 2: at the same time, it's not just a bree and 920 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 2: six million crackers around it and then having to like 921 00:41:12,960 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 2: bulk it out. I baked one bree with like a 922 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:19,400 Speaker 2: packet of Filo pastry around it, so it became like 923 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 2: the centerpiece of what we're having. And then we had 924 00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 2: you know, some fresh baghette and like some dip and 925 00:41:23,560 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 2: some tomato stuff and it was really nice still, but honestly, 926 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 2: it was so much cheaper than going and like putting 927 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:32,359 Speaker 2: together a cheese platter, because in my head, if I'm 928 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 2: putting together a cheese platter, well I'm going to need 929 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 2: a hard cheese. I'm going to a soft cheese like grape. 930 00:41:39,840 --> 00:41:41,440 Speaker 2: But you know what I mean, it like adds up 931 00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:43,840 Speaker 2: and all the like little things are expensive on that 932 00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 2: platter totally, whereas like a beautiful little Bree and it 933 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 2: doesn't even have to be expensive because you gonna bake 934 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 2: it anyway. And then the feel it it worked out 935 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,799 Speaker 2: so well was in our newsletter a couple of weeks ago. 936 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,480 Speaker 2: We are not baking it. I don't know what salary 937 00:41:58,520 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 2: you've got to be able to bake your das and 938 00:42:01,560 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 2: that's not where Jess and I live. We can't, all right, 939 00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 2: Two more one said and I liked this one because 940 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 2: they did make me laugh. Sounds like that person who 941 00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:13,080 Speaker 2: wrote into you guys is a judge e mc judge, judge. 942 00:42:13,400 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 2: I don't want a friend like that. And then they 943 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:20,000 Speaker 2: did like four red flag emojis, and then someone else said, honestly, 944 00:42:20,080 --> 00:42:22,759 Speaker 2: it's just the last minuteness of it all. It's so 945 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,720 Speaker 2: fine to ask if food can be provided, planning needs 946 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:30,640 Speaker 2: to be requested ahead, so and then they said last 947 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 2: minute is quite rude. So I just agree with that. 948 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 2: I just think give people time. Yeah, I want to 949 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,520 Speaker 2: make a bag to Bree and bring it, do I 950 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:42,520 Speaker 2: can't do that in five minutes because I'm really like 951 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 2: slow cook. 952 00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 4: But no, that's so true. I think general, I think 953 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 4: we're all on. 954 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,239 Speaker 2: The same page. Yes, don't be judge. Everyone has a 955 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,840 Speaker 2: different financial circumstance. And if you think someone is stingy, 956 00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:57,560 Speaker 2: have you actually thought about what their money story could 957 00:42:57,640 --> 00:43:01,240 Speaker 2: be to lead them to be like that? With myne me? Also, 958 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,719 Speaker 2: what do you I have this genuine belief? Sorry, going 959 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:08,439 Speaker 2: back on a thing again, you cannot tell someone something 960 00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:11,520 Speaker 2: about themselves that they cannot change in ten seconds. So 961 00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 2: like Becca, I could be like, oh, there's something in 962 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: your teeth, or hey, can I grab something out of 963 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 2: your hair? Or oh, my gosh, did you realize your 964 00:43:16,600 --> 00:43:19,759 Speaker 2: jump us on backwards?
