L'Art d'être riche

I think reviewer fearsrob completely misunderstood the premise. First of all, you're still not living your rich life if you're spending all $24k that you make each month. Second, the show is about a holistic approach to financial responsibility to build a life that is meaningful to you. AKA you could have millions of dollars but still have such a guilt centered money psychology that you would be crippled by anxiety over pennies spent on groceries. I really enjoy the show and Ramit's podcast too. It's really interesting to hear about different people's lives and how they deal with their money. I think it's really valuable to have these conversations on display.

I am on the first show and I was very interested until you brought on the lame over indulged woman who gets $25,000 for CHILD support and not only throws it away on herself but then whines she can't pay her child's tuition. Inconceivable to those potential viewers who are actually struggling to stick with a budget and learn to direct small investments for their future. She is an absurd caricature. Also, the couple with the stay at home Dad. Respect a dad who looks after his children but probably needs to work outside the house on singular contracts and get daycare. Perhaps the wife could split work from home and office . Gosh, comprises!

Cry me a river.

I started watching the show in hope I'll learn a few tricks/tips about investment with the money I have saved, not learn elementary class mathematics. If you're spending more than you're making, well, surprise surprise! You'll be in debt. To pay off your debt quicker, what do you do? More surprises! Cut off expenses and pay off more every month for the debt.

If you pay 1000 instead of 700 you'll get rid off your debt in 13 years instead of 18, mind-blown? Yeah, not really.

The only thing I liked about the show is that these people do need help and glad someone decided to do so. And probably that I have better financial intelligence in my mid 20s than people in their 40s.

This show has so much to learn from. I don't understand these negative reviews. There are a lot of great concepts that help you think about investing smart, meaningful spending, enjoying your life, and saving for retirement. We all know these things but hardly ever consider how to balance it all. Quite literally, how he says- design your rich life. I got the book, too, to help with my finances. I am definitely hooked for life.

I definitely hope they come up with more seasons and episodes. So much to learn. Brilliant advice about using a financial advisor by the hour vs % charges. Great ideas by the characters, too. Love it all.

If you want to see how to walk and dress if you want to get rich this show is for you :) just watch Ramit :) I always tell myself that I'm never ever watching a netflix documentary again and the I just hit play and I'm again disappointed. The advices were basic, good for people who have no clue what to do but nothing groundbreaking. I liked his approach to MLM. I hated the advice that if you want to feel comfortable and equal in a relationship you have to earn more money. Or if you want to live better get multiple jobs but I think maybe this is just the American way of living. The street interviews, what were those? Just filling I feel.
