Are You Guilty of These Financial Turn Offs?

[@gabrielleolivia1]

Borrowing money to pay for needs and then you see them purchasing things that are NOT NEEDS.

[@FinanzasPersonalesyAlgoMas]

I had someone closed to me who asked me for money to pay the electricity. I gave her the money and very next day they were eating at a restaurant and posted in social media. I called her and demanded my money right away way. I told her to never ask me for money again.

[@sprint7412]

My aunt is like that. She doesn't know how to save.

[@ryanpatton1795]

I lent my MIL 750 dollars and after 2 months of still not being paid back when promised she was buying doordash for my daughter and planning a cross country trip

[@delanacunningham9581]

Husband and I gave my younger sister $300 gift card to HEB (Texas chain store with gas stations) for groceries for her and her family of FIVE. She said she had been to the food bank recently. My mother called me a few days later to thank me for giving sister the ability to take her family to Six Flags in Dallas. Used it to pay for their gas. I was so angry.

[@gabrielleolivia1]

@@delanacunningham9581 I live in Fort Worth! Also, that’s awful. Thankfully none of my irresponsible family asks me for money.

[@PinkieJoJo]

My ick is when family only calls you when they want something from you (financially) claiming they don’t have money for necessities yet they constantly post on social media their outings at the bar, concerts, road trips, etc and they smoke a pack per day.

[@lilic6747]

It's an ick to me when someone I know said "we're debt free except for student loan...and a car.." lol

[@RobertBeedle]

😂 That like saying I'm extremely good ripped except for my 30lbs of fat covering it up.

[@truthseeker6370]

I tipped for carryout food during Covid to help small businesses stay in business. I am now Fed Up with the small businesses that ask for a tip when you swipe your debit card! Seriously? I am using My time and My gas to pick up the food I ordered.

My ick if when your “broke “ friend realizes your paying and starts to add more things on the tab than they normally would’ve bought them selves 🌚😂

[@kiddorot3848]

I can not believe ppl really do this! When i know someone else is paying, I order the cheapest thing

Rule in our family is if someone is covering the whole tab, we order equal or lesser price meal of the person paying.

[@kariforgie457]

Yes on the social media! Parents posting all the presents under the tree on Christmas Eve! Birthdays....Easter...on and on

Yes know of family that did this. Two months later their home was robbed. Plus post your trips after back home. Never while you are there.

[@lindadorman2869]

My favorite is "If you become debt-free and don't like it, you can always get back into debt." Once people realize how great it is not to owe anyone, it's no longer an ick!

[@bryan_witha_whyy]

I’m ok owing someone so long as the money I’m making off my money is more than the interest I’m paying them. As long as you have the ABILITY to pay it off, it’s not a big deal.

[@emrose1717]

Love this saying too! 😊 & “it’s easy to walk into debt. It takes years to walk back out.”

[@autumnjerene]

My ick is when someone complains about being able to pay the bills or how they need student loan forgiveness to make ends meet, but they go on vacation more than I do.

[@WavyCurlyGina]

I work with someone like that. It's obnoxious

[@CJ2023Incognito]

12:57 I hate the “let’s take turns”. It eats me up until I can return the favor OR the other person doesn’t remember it’s “their turn” and I’m not about to remind them. 😂 lol Just pay your half and let’s both have a great day. 👍

[@BethAnnesBest]

The other issue is it's often not fair. Like say you pay for someones $5 queso and the next time they pay for a $20 charcuterie board...so I don't like that either. I also don't like when people are all lets just split the bill 5 ways even...also not fair.

[@gretalukoseviciute2058]

Let’s pay whatever who is eating

[@mskimy1125]

One of the best pieces of advice i ever received was to never do something for others expecting something in return. I buy people coffee or pay for their meal ocassionally. No catch. I have a budget line specifically for giving and celebrating others so i do it with money intended for that purpose. If people want to get me back they can, but its up to them. I dont harbour any ill will if they dont treat me back.

[@barrybegley5379]

Part of what makes Your show so compelling is the tight-knit chemistry between George and Rachel. The honest introspection and very human foibles presented by each of the hosts illustrates that even two "financial experts" can have a few of the ticks of the everyday viewer. Thanks for sharing guys. Always interesting. Greetings from Ontario, Canada.

[@davidibarra892]

I can never get enough of this podcast! 😅

[@BethAnnesBest]

Oh the overtipping is driving me crazy. Like there are SELF-CHECKOUTS asking for tips...where does that tip go? It should go to ME. lol

[@chemquests]

Rolling over negative equity on car loans. I don’t know anyone directly but when I hear about it on these types of shows, it’s the worse.

[@Mamamischa]

I soooo judge married couples that Venmo each other!😂

Non financial - when people say “I seen” Financial - complaining about being broke when you make terrible decisions that you were warned about and still expecting my sympathy.

Takeaway: Tipping on the post-tax amount….i just realized this.

[@Noemie_Robidoux]

Big ick for me is when, say someone owes you for a meal and it is 19,76$.... and they pay you to the penny. I round it. I would give them 20$

Or when you ask them three times to pay you back and they keep waiting till you forgot.

I would love to see an episode speaking about the finances of MLM’s and other online scams

[@1stgenhustle461]

Can we see the bartender one of these days? Can he make “mixology and money” videos, where he shows how to make the drinks, talks about the cost, and maybe even has a money guest to make the drink with him, while discussing other big money topics? Maybe have it start as a SMHP bonus show/segment/mini-sode, then give it its own YT shorts, and see how things go? There is something mesmerizing about watching someone make something and it could be an interesting way to talk about money, maybe even use drinks to illustrate financial concepts in fun ways. Would love to see George promote his book while making a cocktail with a bartender, or see Graham Stephan talk finances while making a special iced coffee mocktail with the mixologist.

[@AgentGWG]

These two are not an ick! Great part of my week.

[@calvinwebb8949]

George I loved the impression of Rachel on the call where you told Katie to sell the horse. Lol 😂

[@denisemckinney3973]

Kindness to servers is totally needed today. However, if the restaurant automatically charges 18% for your group, then that is what they get. And I do not feel like tipping someone who passed me food from a window. When I get exceptional service at a sit down restaurant I often tip 25-30%.

[@covertchannel]

HELOCs people take out for expensive wants like pools are an ick for me. If you can’t afford a pool, don’t take out a HELOC for $80k to get one at 8% interest.

I don't know for sure, but I think LED light kits for your vehicle might be an inexpensive way to jazz up your truck. I wouldn't judge that. It's fun! Keep in mind that I live in an area where few young people have really expensive trucks, so they often personalize them with cheap after market kits.

There is a Huge difference between flaunting $$ & being genuinely generous. It gets down to intent. I have an acquaintance that is very well off & always pays for a meal tab . . But also always insists on going to a place I/others wouldn’t cause too pricey . . . & of course let’s everyone know just how generous she is & how grateful I/we should be . . .arrggh . . I haven’t dined or associated with that person in a long time cause it makes me feel small . .

[@svetlanadreher7190]

Have you ever talked about it with your friend? Maybe they are not even thinking about flexing. Maybe they think they are treating you to a meal you can’t afford just out of pure generosity. I just don’t think it’s good to assume what other people’s motives are without spelling everything out

[@anniealexander9616]

Give her my phone number. My oldest Brother was in dentistry. He saw that we had a lot. He also flexed that we wouldn't have it without him. He died in a car accident and everything went away. Don't know what you got till it's gone. Be grateful for what others provide. I've been a landlord since age 19. I've given my oldest kids free homes. I would like some recognition. I worked hard to give them things.

@@svetlanadreher7190 I think it's pretty easy to tell someone's intentions, maybe not after one time, but if it's continuous, I would distance myself from someone like that, too.

[@svetlanadreher7190]

@@bonniehalf-elven No, not really, unless they speak out their mind or one can literally read people's minds which I doubt. Everything else is an assumption on your part.

[@ethanevensen3752]

I think it's funny how the hosts think it's flexing to put your credit score on a profile, and have no problem with debt free screams. What's the difference they think one is good and the other is bad. The flex is in the eye of the beholder.

[@laanierhae]

My ick is people who are so insecure, they think everyone is trying to take advantage of them, so they become the ultimate penny pincher. I planned a nice day out with a sibling one afternoon. At one of the venues, the card machine was down, and they only took cash. So I paid for the both of us. We were going to lunch next, so I said they could just pick up lunch, and we're even. They insisted on driving around to look for an ATM (this was before we used Venmo and PayPal). They pulled out the exact amount they owed me and paid ATM fees in the process. They were SO worried that I was going to take advantage and order a single cent more than the amount they owed. So bizarre. (And this sibling and I were evenly matched at the time, financially speaking, so money was never an issue between us. We lived together at the time as well).

Dirty Fingernails are one of my MAJOR ICKS!!! Hilarious!

[@retnuh1262]

Me and my best friend loosely switch off on every other. I grab lunch this time, you grab dinner next time. And if we do like dinner then dessert, then maybe I cover dinner and he covers dessert. I only do this with my best friend, everyone else I am more like George. Not letting that $6.53 slip by unnoticed.

[@allisongraf5299]

Too funny. My face hurts from laughing every week😂. Telling Rachel her financial ick was hilarious.

[@deb9806]

Since I don't drink, I hate paying for others 2 or 3 drinks since they are much more than water or a diet gingerale. I usually don't say anything but if they have 3 or more and it's 4 people, it's a lot more and I have said something then (and wonder if they should drive)

[@mckaylanitz]

I really enjoyed watching this!!

[@julieo330]

I appreciate good quality things, which tend to be more expensive. They fit better, wear better, last longer, etc. However, fashion where the logo is the pattern. Not sure I'm saying that correctly, but ICK!!! And they look ridiculous!

[@janise01]

TBH I think the one who came up with the "overactive Venmo" ick is also the type who go out with people, order way more than everyone else, demands they split the checklist, and then acts like those that refuse are broke b/c they won't cover part of their meal. Sure in theory it may "wash out" but we all know there's one person who more often covers it for the table and/or one who doesn't have their wallet so it never really evens out. Also 100% of the time the one who calls asking people to cover their share an "ick" and the one who conveniently doesn't have their wallet is the same person.

[@janethms3]

I like restaurants that allow separate checks.

[@victoriaemerson-ds8du]

YES. Just do the Venmo right away, and keep it simple. It’s too much to keep track of, and not everyone has the luxury to cover other people and get paid back later.

It’s Very nuanced in the states. Like to a ridiculous degree. But it’s generally 15-20% of the total bill for anything service related.

I only feel a little bit bad about it, but when married couples split checks, I feel like that gives me the ick… there’s also this thing that I know isn’t always right, but when the girlfriend is paying for something and the man is like hugging her or being affectionate seemingly BECAUSE she’s paying something for him.
