Stephanie, is on the line starting off this hour in Minneapolis High Stephanie how're. You doing things in our question today: Chirrup, what's up. I have a question about. How to navigate family relationship when you start making like good money, I'm so my husband, I business went from zero to about growth due to him in about a year and a half. It's going really well the trajectory up in its awesome, but I've already started. And we'll come to my boy. Over that time, when we started when we started me the money was pregnant go to tools no matter just like it, like that all we joined a nice Germany area and we get there, like money bags over here that oughta money, and
when they joined the jam? It was you from the lottery for that kind of stuff, so it's just been weird and with the treaty. Three of our business going up and making more money getting to level that we want to achieve and then eventually I just don't know how to navigate We already have a really good relationship when I finally, but it's starting to get a little weird holidays and stuff. When we only tell had gone on so yeah. I just don't know how that will be good relations, number one if you have a good relationship and someone says something that is hurtful- you are able to say that we are so you know I know you brought him anything by that boat when you that it was like you were questioning whether we should be successful and caught her my feelings. I need to say that to you. If you have a good relationship, you can do that if they're just jerks, then
would you have to treat them like jerks, and the thing is happens, is money, doesn't cause things money. My no five things that are already there good things, some good things and bad things. The quality of you. Have a high quality relationship, highly functional. It will become even more so with large. Of money around if you have weak and petty relationships that everyone acts like is ok, but on the surface Then that will be magnified as you have wealth. If you are your daddy is proud of you when you get wealthy be very, very proud of you more but if your daddy is drunk dysfunctional and takes his and has to be king of the hill or he can't yet a conversation, because you screwed in the head and all
sudden. He can't be king of the hill, because your net worth eight times his then your dad he's gonna get worse, you know see what I'm saying. So that's what you watch and for an odd pick up, I Henry Clouds. Boundaries, because that's what this is. It's a boundary issue read through your you'll, enjoy it and it can be with functional things. As simple as you know what, we ve been very, very careful to do with extended family is just not to wait. Don't talk about a lot of stuff that sure now talk about it was I well. I don't know if someone Spokane can really emotionally grasp that. So we're just probably not bring that up. You know I'm always talked about that with extended family or find your things like that and friendship for encryption anyway, I've got
They can't emotionally grasp some other things that we are able to do for charity for ministries. You know I can remember the first time I gave a thousand dollars to something, and I can also remember the first time in over a hundred thousand dollars to something. But you know here that I can't you talk about that now in front of everybody, but its summit, very awkward with a friend of twenty years ago. And so I just have to be pretty common go. You know that talk about their more may lash and multiple like that. Anyway, that's just good conversational manners And I'm not was up, I might not. If you went on a super chaperonage crews, we don't have the dollar but you're not going then you're over you and if you Goin for their mission. Begone right, the fictional, you know just and an awkward buying cars for other people. I got really. I scars mean because I like driver
Oh really care, whether you like it or not. All I grab and that's why I got it ended with you. You know, and so but occasionally or your comment about car is our most green eyes. You know you can remember the little people know my shoes. Rarely wish. Vine really is a brown grew up little people. When little paper my how alive I'm just low people they got big sets out what is so just chill your, but you know, but your age, it runs through your head. We UK say that out loud that so I will tell you that there is a certain amount of awkwardness and weirdness that goes with the territory. The same thing happens in any area of your life that you grow. Let's say you can from alone that was not the didn't, have the faith and became a very Strong person of faith and you grow in that area or Europe,
I rolls over that too how's it going over there, they handle snakes. You know what you're gonna get people how's our so called operating nowadays. You know you're gonna, get these snide things from all forums and family. That work there when you were that different person, but you ve changed a lot now you know and theirs, is just envy and jealousy, and there too, of the two the devil's work too, and then they are differ. That's interesting to study them. That's a good! It's a good discussion. So thank you for let me get up also barking, but you know jealousy, is I'd like to have what you have and then saying something like must be nice and you can't. I mean it really like to have that like to have gone mad trapper about that house or whatever in is I don't think I can ever have that? So I don't want you to at either. It should be taken away from you and that's it.
And you see both of these pop up in the political landscape. These days with the whole wealth inequality argument that kind of thing in all the evil. Rich people say that that's true straight up, jealousy, that's really and because I shouldn't have that cause. I don't think I can ever have it and that's that so they, but she just watch for that stuff, and then you can address it you can choose to say, I'm gonna limit. My conversations about those kinds of things were The case is that the person is toxic enough. Friend or family, that they have to have to distance yourself from them, because their never gonna, except the german winning an not winning to please them is an absurd idea. You can't go on fail of business goes Bobby, is gonna be upset. If I win well screwed we re Bobby, just gonna take a ride. You know it's crazy. You can't do that.
I'll be in the both in their all laughing at him? And now not you Bobby different Bobby. Oh, my gosh good discussion is one thing that happens when you wanted anything, but definitely happens when you, where that money. This is that Abrahams, each one of us
questions. I get all the time at which life insurance company should I use for my term live policy. Look. It can be a tough decision when there are hundreds of plans out there with rights all over the place and rip off riders. That's why the only company I use and of recommended for over twenty years is Zander Insurance there, a broker, which means they shop only the top plans from reputable companies that I recommend call them at eight hundred three five. Six forty to eighty two or visit Zander dot com for instant online quotes

Again. We also get free samples, free shipping and with the new promos run every month, you're gonna say money check out. The poem Ramsay Blind dot com, Malaysia is and why she says I'm twenty one years old, my husband's on the military, namely that we have our car, which is twenty four thousand left to pay we want to get rid of it, but we don't know what steps to take to make that happen wherever use. As well, that we paid for cash, but it's not as reliable. What do you recommend
I recommend you get rid of a larger income is but I'm gonna guess at twenty one in the military you're not making a pile of money could be wrong and that twenty four thousand, probably your lunch, well yeah. I'm gettin rid of that thing. The steps you do to get rid of it is: you have to find out what it is worth in terms of We were to sell it. For instance, on Craigslist has called a private parties sale you go to just go on the internet and look at a private parties sale and you can figure out what the car is worth and was pretend its worth one thousand new O twenty four, which would probably be close right, which means you up add down there in the whole four thousand in order to sell it, you have to go get the title from the bank they're not going to give you the title unless you pay them twenty four thousand years, get twenty thousand from your virus. We have to have the other four thousand figured out and then You have to either borrow that from your local credit union or worked extra
save up the four thousand dollars in order to do that. But my my guess is this car was a huge stupid mistake and it's probably hammering you you probably hemorrhaging money right now, so I could be wrong, but I'm not sure that you, you didn't get rid of it and you right. Borrow the money that we put other four thousand on a credit card by rambler degree, Gardner directly said you're already twenty four thousand, and that when you are the guardian, four thousand origin, that we're going in the right direction. There people, so you move, dad on something else and get rid of this car, but you ve got to cover the amount you're in the hole the amount your upside down in order to make the transaction work. Cameras weathers in New York City, high Tamar. How are you Dave, I'm ok calling because for the last two years I felt a lot of dead before that. I was wake. I think good at saving
and managing myself. What I had. Kids in college at the same time, and they didn't follow my advice. They picked very expensive schools, one of them got some scholarships and another one didn't get any and supported their bad decisions, and I had- the boy now you can have. You chose to yeah, but and now I have my credit card that because I try some of their tuition on my credit card, all school that I couldn't afford me yes, so is this offers is over our they out of school Y know, I guess held because he wasn't giving mean his grave and by bad I told them. I'm not gonna support your school. If that are you're, gonna be a correct, My daughter she fell like because she gave at least like sixty to seventy percent scholarships for her

The italian lire tidal generation very entitled now you're out of here, I don't. I don't like that and I'm a life of financial situation- and I had like old emergency fund but like every month, is like. I find myself thinking about knowledge from as over, like about twenty five thousand. Now it's about seventeen and about forty thousand miles of debt, but I wondered if I just think that mergers I paid down and is no bore. The rest of them had thought over your smile, yeah. They often only if you learn a new word, you ready for the word now. That's the word! No! Can you use that working here

And the same with your son, it has to fit your budget. Or the answer's? No, you don't get anything. They don't get to tell you.
What to do with your money. It is not child abuse to not support your children's stupid decisions. I sought child abuse, you're, not a bad mom, and I don't care if she's twenty and she stopped her foot and her little lipsticks out and she has a little fit. All blood showed no hard I couldn't get a crap lass. You don't get to make decisions with my money and when, do with. When you make decisions that I approve of, then you have a shot at me, financing them. But I am not paying for you to make this in that. I do not approve of now. Why do not approve of them two reasons? One? Is it's a bad decision and I'm smarter than you, because older than you- and I have this thing called wisdom- experience. This reason is it's my freaking money, so I get to this I'd. Work goes to. I dont have put up with you twenty year olds telling me where my monies gonna go and so

You just have chosen not to because these kids, a bitter in your life today you running your life. I'm sorry that you got there, but that's exactly what you described to me and you can CS in that case, if you will stop the bleeding, stop them by giving more to people you can afford to give because they're making decisions you can afford a support, then? Yes, you would user emergency funding should go a tight budget and yes, she would snowball your way right through this, and you can do all of that here Can you know exactly what to do? You just got to go. Do it now? It's very hard, though, to tell your kids know it's very hard to tell people that you love no, even if they're being stupid

So if you wanna take an extra months bill that our well it's fun, awesome
if you get close- and she could pick up some o t that last month and go after it, for a little bit. I mean the goodness is our t, it's not like. You have to quit the job you decide on one or two you I do want. It seems like an old about the second doubted, the thing that, like we're, ready spend it on the payment of the more we now want to take advantage of it, yeah. I mean that's that beer reward Leggum reporting, you're dead, free celebration. You know I quit yes, yes, but that is just as your judgment You make that adult decision you're making them how quick visited it so one month difference, I'm with you at public, with I'm gonna right there So that's the deal thanks for the call open phones at eight hundred and eighty eight, eight hundred and twenty five five thousand five hundred and twenty two. I've. This is that I ran to show glad you're whether statement got a small fora, one k from past job. What should I do with it?.
Well, you always role for a one k when you leave your job to the next job I'm sorry, too, to what am I my brains, not working. Ok, when you leave your work, you always take your retirement with you.

If you would like to
says the diver amnesia. New York Molin, those calling Melinda hoary comin back you, I had a question. I am, and I worry that I'm the Taiwan
I'm listening to you, my husband and I are having a hard time I think Wanna go really really back, then I feel accused of the way pulling and am I going to get territory gods and he's starting get upset he's like don't do that You need to be home with the family, five me so he's willing to go on the journey, it's the speed of the journey me obviously not literally person, so how much debt of you all got! Twenty nine and I'll student mountain twenty nine thousand sally, my in what your household income eighty this change jobs aware I dont work. For the summer, so, but I'm guessing it should be about the same time. What do you do for a living I'm a mental counselor, hooker
Can you do that? Some free lance of that over the summer the I looked into it attacked. Coworker and they are but their renown Harry Family Life counselor, and I won't be able to do in this area. Because they don't want people to see me as that role and then doing another job emigrants from Shore LUCA am. I had had the job come next clear. I was gonna get like a trip driving video and that schooling is would take up the entire summer, and I was thinking I could work on weekends an old counselor truck driver yeah. Does it sound like that goes together to me? What am I missing, but it paid via? Oh that's all! It is. Ok, again I found what you turned them come again over all your overall household income, again, eighty eighty
over two thousand, I'm still in the army leaders and how are you going either? I am thirty, five, thirty six o clock, So you you just started this get out on that journey, two of your shutting down during a budget together right. We we took care to keep university where ago, and then when I had the job change like we're, not by day. We don't know where this money is going. What do you mean? We should have liked without an extra so you can rely on. You took the class and you didn't implemented at the time. Not the buy it now I'll be back at the meeting by my rapid twenty two. Asked here so you're putting money. No, I'm not I'm not getting anything in our just what it did. Ok, it's it! What it did I thought. Well, I think what you Probably do is go I'd get
that is you talking to your husband. I get there, you don't want me gone all its homework and six jobs, ok, but I am really on fire for us getting rid of this Dat and moving our family forward, so we are. Ah, I can slow that down a little bit and I can slow down some of my intensity to meet you, but you ve got meet me where we actually start doing the budget, We actually sit down once a month at once a week and go over. Where the money is going and that we are going to work, these baby steps and the all, if if we're doing lad- and the only question is how fast we work them, then I'll I will give you I will give on that point, but I can't not do this stuff. After going through this class, its changed. The way I look at it- and I want this debt paid off and I think that's a fair thing for you to ask him to do, and I don't think it's
First thing I think you'll do that, don't you we are. I just don't want to go on vacation. Then we don't have any money or no moment nor you're not work in the baby steps if you're gonna vacation, when you have twenty thousand dollars, instead of going to the budget, but he still wants to find things, were done a budget, but we're not sacrificed to get out of that. That's problem different than your work and all the time. Ok You know, basically, you guys what where you're not an agreement is not about you work and all the time where you're not agreement, as is he's not really wanting to follow the plan that you learned and financial biodiversity he fell on you. Why are they not be rightly it in and go by bunch crap? You can't afford and continue to be answered, he wants to do. You know financial peasmarsh on issuing yeah a key issue in doing going camping, her the inside
Somehow I missed the part about living like no one else. So later you can live like no one else and that's where you guys we're gonna spend some time dreaming again ago. You know we can't we can spend everything and What were acting like normal people again and if we everything on fine, then children, do what feels good adults devise a plan and follow it And that now that's a reasonable thing for you to be fired up about it. You won't work sixty sixteen job, you'll, be a truck driver when your mental health councillors a little weird, shall I'm with. Am on that I'll, take your site on there, but the the problem is, if you do all that stuff and he still MR phone, all Europeans bonfires with all that work and that's not gonna work, so you just need to get on the same page as for
what your goals are and what you're willing to do to hit those goals, and then you got to decide in. Are you going to work the stuff you learn in financial peace or not? The answer before was no you weren't and then the question is, are you willing to read to you? You might wanna go back through the class, wouldn't hurt you Jennifer is in Chicago on Jennifer. How are you are you Dave better than I deserve. What's up so my husband has been on a leave of absence since July with I'm so sorry. No short term disability payments, except for six weeks of it, so we call behind on a bunch of other stuff and we have a bunch of it all. Stupid everywhere, as is Adam Actually in January I can it slipped. My
a little bit, and so I went to one. We are on a budget and we are following the baby steps in our baby. Is that you. Do we have simply one hundred. Are you current humming euchre with everybody? No, we are not that our going next. We are fifty four hundred dollar tax return coming and that's because of him being off work. It was totally not. We didn't Yes, we have to pay so now we have all this coming in and of course, I know you know. Traditionally you applied to the the smallest to the largest, but I'm wondering if we shouldn't be using at least part of that to try to settle some of our charged on stuff How is he doing is gonna be going back to cause. You don't do now now I'm not sure when he has tried three times and set him back. Every time would end what happened anxiety and depression and
I even treatment you see the count. Learning of those Arthur rather weaken, he's just not been able again over the hump. You ve actually plenary lapsing right now, home so issue. Is your monthly. Nations of your house all gone and the whole every month, Not. Now that I have a budget now. Let me say that where else being everything. Ok, so you can't pay all your bills without whom we would not. Now very ok. Now I would not use this money for anything except an emergency fund, because you are red Square in the middle of an emergency. Stop your baby steps on any stop temporarily. First thing: we gotta get your budget balanced and get your income to match your out now,
That's your first go before you doing the Elles and in the meantime, you need this money to eat and the key keep the wolf away from the door more, and I really don't care if you get behind on stuff like red guards or student loans right now. What I care about is unaware on your house or your lights. We are not. All of that. Is that number one priority of the flemish and safari the fallen walls, food, shelter, clothing, transportation and utilities? Would you take it those pretty much anything else. I mean your car familiar house by my house around food and, like everything else get older. Do you get him so he gets back on its feet. Get this balance to get, but I wouldn't try to work the baby steps until you get your income to match her outfit out at your first goal. Sorry efficient me if I can help further.
