Do You Handle Payday Better Than Your Fav Celeb?
Most people think the hard part about getting rich is figuring out how to make a ton of money—but the real challenge might be learning to manage your money well. Today, George and Rachel react to the ways celebrities spent their first paychecks and ponder whether money makes us who we are or if it simply reveals what’s already there.
In this episode:
• Rachel’s crappy first paycheck and how George scored $12 an hour as a 14-year-old
• The emotional roller coaster of the average American’s payday weekend—and a better way to payday
• George and Rachel try to figure out how one celeb dropped $15K at The Cheesecake Factory
