On this introspective episode of Crazy Money, Paul sits alone in his empty Atlanta house and talks openly about the thoughts and feelings that drew him back to Atlanta, and the head trauma that may or may not have initiated his desire to sell everything and move to New York City.

Oh, by the way, my name is Mike Carano and I’m writing these surely-to-be-deleted episode notes. Paul is occupied with the chaos of moving, but I suspect he’s more likely trying to get to the bottom of the, “which Ray’s Pizza is the REAL Ray’s Pizza.” In between mumbling, “miles to go before I sleep,” he asked if I could handle this writing task. Inspired by he and Stacey’s decision to embrace a big change and wring every drop out of this thing called life, I said uhh, okay. 

In this intimate podcast Paul talks about how this move came about, how he, Stacey, and their two kids, kid #1, and kid #2, ended up in Atlanta, and his plan to put the pedal to the metal and maximize opportunity, expand horizons, and have coffee with the dude from TED.

I found this be be genuinely inspiring, and I’ve decided to do the same thing. Only I’m going to Barstow, because I’m broke.

Please enjoy this thoughtful episode.
