We’re still over here trying to keep up with the Joneses. In Part 2 of Money & Debt, we talk about how our cycles of extreme frugality followed by “rebellious overspending” is exactly like dieting. (And we now know the perfect descriptor for both of us!)

We discuss how having so little growing up and being made fun of for it can fuel our overspending—even as adults. We also cover the mental and physical effects of financial stress and how it feeds our lack of self-compassion.

In this episode:

• Meet the Man Who Makes $600 a Month Selling Crickets (Credit.com via Yahoo Finance)
• Example of one of Rebecca’s "roadkill dolls" (not her exact one)
