Cómo hacerse ricos

I am on the first show and I was very interested until you brought on the lame over indulged woman who gets $25,000 for CHILD support and not only throws it away on herself but then whines she can't pay her child's tuition. Inconceivable to those potential viewers who are actually struggling to stick with a budget and learn to direct small investments for their future. She is an absurd caricature. Also, the couple with the stay at home Dad. Respect a dad who looks after his children but probably needs to work outside the house on singular contracts and get daycare. Perhaps the wife could split work from home and office . Gosh, comprises!

Cry me a river.

I think reviewer fearsrob completely misunderstood the premise. First of all, you're still not living your rich life if you're spending all $24k that you make each month. Second, the show is about a holistic approach to financial responsibility to build a life that is meaningful to you. AKA you could have millions of dollars but still have such a guilt centered money psychology that you would be crippled by anxiety over pennies spent on groceries. I really enjoy the show and Ramit's podcast too. It's really interesting to hear about different people's lives and how they deal with their money. I think it's really valuable to have these conversations on display.

I have seen countless series about personal finance including Dave Ramsey, Caleb Hammer, now this series from Ramit. It was quite refreshing and different, he plays a great listener and is not pushy (after all he has no actual vested interest in anyone's outcome). The series (I am currently on episode 5) has covered a wide variety of people from varying backgrounds and income levels, there are a lot of common threads. Nobody likes to talk about money!

I have never heard anyone recommend an hourly advisor vs yearly fee before and it makes sense once you reach the seven figure range. It's basic math.

Ramit doesn't shame anyone for renting either which was not expected.

It could have been OK and worth the time, had it actually really focused on showing what they were going to need to work on (each person) and what they did to change things. They did not do that. 80% (if not more) of the focus was on the host. I have to say most of his advice (what little they did actually say on the show) is very basic. Nothing new. Were I going to pay for any financial advice, I would not be paying him. If you want to watch a show that is more about the ego of the host, then this is the show for you. He is happy to keep showing himself and talking to the camera. Now if you want actual financial advice, information that can help you with your own life, look elsewhere. Seriously!

This show has so much to learn from. I don't understand these negative reviews. There are a lot of great concepts that help you think about investing smart, meaningful spending, enjoying your life, and saving for retirement. We all know these things but hardly ever consider how to balance it all. Quite literally, how he says- design your rich life. I got the book, too, to help with my finances. I am definitely hooked for life.

I definitely hope they come up with more seasons and episodes. So much to learn. Brilliant advice about using a financial advisor by the hour vs % charges. Great ideas by the characters, too. Love it all.
