#408: When Kiersten and Julian Saunders began dating in 2012, they fell in love quickly, and their relationship felt strong – until they started talking about money.
They broke up as a result of their first money conversation.

Then they started thinking about how to hack their careers. They came up with a plan for a 15-year career.
