Money For Couples with Ramit Sethi

206. “I quit my job to care for our son, but can we afford it?”


Listen Later

Anna (33) and Will (37) are married with two kids, including a young son who was born with a serious heart condition. Between unexpected medical expenses, emotional stress, and inconsistent financial planning, their savings have steadily drained—and now, they're spending more than they earn just to keep up. Will brushes off concerns, saying “We’re fine,” while Anna feels like she’s the only one confronting reality. Now, they want to build a home and create long-term security for their family—but until they can get aligned, that dream may be out of reach.
