On last week’s episode, we met 38-year-old LaKiesha and 45-year-old James, a couple struggling to get on the same page financially. With no savings, no investments, and deep-rooted money fears, they’re stuck in a cycle of mindless spending. Today, we’re digging back into their CSP—and the numbers are more shocking than they expected. Can they finally break old habits and build their Rich Life together?
