Quotes from this Episode
“Personal finance is about 80% behavior. It’s only about 20% head knowledge and math. The problem with your money is not your math. … Debt is not a math problem, if it were, you wouldn’t be in debt in the first place. It’s a YOU problem.” — Dave Ramsey
“Anything worth having is worth working hard to have.” — Austin Bollinger
