About this episode

We’re glad to have friend of the show and newly married, Nick Maggiulli back on the podcast! He’s been given the nickname Nicky Numbers because he has a special gift for conveying wonky money information in a straightforward and digestible way. We’ve been fans of his blog, Of Dollars & Data, for years now. This episode is for everyone out there who wants to grow their net worth while finding more spending freedom which is our focus today. We discuss plenty of great issues like investing as a couple, prenups, what level of net worth means Nick considers to be middle class, how a Jay-Z lyric provides spending freedom, Nick’s favorite flavor of FIRE, biggest reasons individuals fall down the wealth ladder, what skills it takes to get you to the different levels of the wealth ladder, and much more!
