@ramit Watching IWT_Fit back then was very interesting. I totally agree with your closing statement. The skills truly are highly transferable. I think getting right with your money allows the mental space to getting right with other systems (macros/portions/fitness routines).

@ramit “Make your own magic” is a great phrase and reminder it’s up to us to make our trips memorable and set them up for success and memories.

HOW WE MAKE OUR TRIPS MAGICAL - Cooking classes. In Mexico City, our guide took us to the market, then we all made extra-spicy salsa together. This is a beautiful way to visit places you wouldn't know about and get involved in a tactile activity. Perfect for families and older parents and very inexpensive. - The $325 underwear. We'd been traveling for weeks and needed to do our laundry. Our hotel, Aman Kyoto, would have charged $325 for a small bag of laundry (standard price for all ultra-luxury hotels). I said "NO WAY!!!" and we decided to go into town and find a laundromat. It turned into an adventure (as we stumbled into place after place that wasn't quite right -- one lady translated for us and said, "Are you trying to wash your clothes? This isn't the right place. This place restores kimonos"). We finally found a local laundromat, took our best guess if it would work, and went to lunch. Now this is a fun ritual for us every time we travel. Sometimes cheaper is way more fun - We hire a local photographer. We love our memories of our trips and local photographers know the best spots/time to take photos. Find the best ones on Instagram. In Tokyo, we use the same photographer every year - On complex trips, I work with a travel advisor. I used a larger firm for a 6-week trip across multiple continents, which was invaluable: They helped us navigate different transportation, recommended which safari lodges to visit (and in what order), and even suggested where to economize & where to splurge. Sometimes I know exactly where I want to go so I call a more surgical travel advisor. In the video, he got our NYC hotel triple-upgraded. Or sometimes I just do it myself. TAs are especially helpful for Disney trips, honeymoons, and multi-generational trips. (They also cost you nothing, but you should look into how they work. I find them very valuable) - 1 major activity every two days. The ultimate luxury is time, so we have a rule: 4+ days in any location. We also book 1 major thing (food tour, museum, etc). The rest of the time, we've pinned a bunch of stuff and we wander where we feel like that day - We know exactly what we DON'T want to see. When I'm attending a private tour, I tell them what I want to experience and what I'm not interested in. Most tour guides will take you to the usual hotspots because it's safe and people can say they saw X or ate Y. I know exactly what I want to see. For example, on a coffee tour, I told them the exact kind of beans I wanted to try and what I was not into. People in hospitality love someone who knows what they want!! This level of intentionality means you get to experience magic (it's not rude) I travel several months per year and I want my travel to be incredibly meaningful for my loved ones and me. These are some of the ways I do it If you want to know more, let me know in the comments More details on the next post

@ramit Peoples own internal narratives and the narratives they will signal to peers either in person in real life often differ from what they post online. The psychology of what we spend and value privately vs publicly will be fascinating 30 years from now.

I like this question: “What are you comfortable spending more than the average person on?” The answers are almost always “healthy food” or “spending on the kids” Their answers are an example of virtue signaling, because of course you’re a good person for spending on healthy food! However, you will almost never hear someone say “eating out” or “car payment” even when we can see their numbers in front of us — even when a couple has 4+ cars! Money is often more about our own narratives than actual math. True for me, true for you, true for all of us

@hutchins @jacobgoldstein Round 2 would be great to answer “what’s your problem” for most optimizers… could get from technical to even psychological (how to let some things go and be okay with less than peak optimizations).I’ll have to think about specifics and go back and listen to Episode 64 to refresh

@tylerhuff @jacobgoldstein Wasn’t me, but I can be a good Chris stand-in ;) also @tylerhuff what would you want to hear in a round 2?

I have an appointment on my calendar for Friday. Just says “Chris.” No idea what it means. If your name is Chris and we have an appointment Friday, please let me know.

@mayalau @SeeJaneMarie @mayalau this was a great episode! Big support from Scripps Ranch adjacent ! (Rancho Penasquitos).

Here’s me being interviewed by @SeeJaneMarie re how much $ I make + other aspects of my actual personal finances. Even for me it was a little weird. That’s why I’m super grateful for everyone who is brave/chill enough to appear on Other People’s Pockets! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/oth…

@djsteveporter Tonight I had to go back deep in the YouTube channel. Thankful they are all still there across your various PorterHouseMedia channels…. Flashbacks to playlists I made with all your remixes. All of them still hold up! Hope you are staying creative and enjoying your talent !

@tylerhuff thank you! & you remember the early ones, anybody who remembers Fredex is a true homie.

Incredible experience putting together these NBA spots, these came right after 'Press Hop' #NBAAllStar

@rlvanessagrant Now that I found it … this gif is even more perfect. I’m 100% with you @rlvanessagrant . To me all of this is classic patriarchy: we want you to do /look/ be x but not too much otherwise that’s bad as well. SMH.

@rlvanessagrant Thread is useless without link! I’ll go have to find it!

Me starting a comment war on LinkedIn like…

@madfientist @ramit Yes! I’ve been waiting years for this episode since his last podcast visit. Glad he is back and it is finally out!

I asked @ramit to come back on the Financial Independence Podcast to address a huge problem for FIRE people (me included). There was some yelling (and I got super clammy/uncomfortable at one point) but it was exactly what I needed. madfientist.com/i-will-teach-y…

@madfientist @DocGDiverseFI Loved finding DocG, his book and his podcast all last year! I wish I had found it years earlier. Great to see your support Brandon!

Congrats to @DocGDiverseFI for his book, Taking Stock! Combining his FI knowledge and his experience dealing with dying patients as a hospice doctor, his book is great for not only learning how to save money but also how to spend it meaningfully! youtube.com/watch?v=ZG1SZt…

@ramit @WCInvestor I have followed WCI since the early days and I had no clue he had a podcast! Have loved his website for years but hearing / seeing him speak was great. Great to see you bring IWT to @WCInvestor. I’m picking up his book on Audible now!

Really enjoyed my conversation with @WCInvestor. I've been a fan for a long time whitecoatinvestor.com/i-will-teach-y…

@HowToMoneyJoel As a twitter n00b is it also normal for us outside non followers to be unable to DM you ? Is it a setting where only people you follow can message you? Keep up the good work on the pod Joel!

@GrahamStephan “I will teach you to be rich” by @ramit

What's the best investing book you have read?

@thejoshforce Supposedly the NZC AP test they took down in July 1, 2022 was going to come back in November 2022. Now I hear it is Jan/Feb 2023, with the test reworked. A hot new area of focus!

@MichaelKitces @ramit @kramerbooks Two legends ! Glad you got to see Ramit!

Got to catch up w/ @ramit at @kramerbooks in celebration of his new "I Will Teach You To Be Rich" Journal. His "I Will Teach" book is still my first recommended to 20- and 30-somethings that need to get oriented around their money (and their debt!). Great to connect in person!

@thejoshforce Great topics and had this stream on the radio on while driving and felt like the old days of talk radio!

@ramit Bloomberg getting in on the housing articles

I'm fascinated by the lies that come & go in the investment world A few years ago: "Buy bitcoin. It only goes up!" That's disappeared now Then it was: "Buy real estate! It only goes up." That's fading slowly Today's big lie: "Buy a house. You can just rent it out for $$$"

@thejoshforce Excited to tune in again this week. Fun format and good topics. P.S. Mile High Dreamin is at the same time. Hopefully some of the attendees can chime in from the conference! milehighdreamin.com
