62. “Why are we waiting for payday if we make $140k?”

Amy and Andre are 42 and 34 respectively. They make $140k a year, but they admit they’re often waiting for payday. They’re buried in debt and can’t seem to make any progress, which is bringing serious anxiety and stress into their lives. Their biggest issue? Their fixed costs sit at 92% of their total income. We uncover all kinds of solutions as to how they might address this problem, but they struggle to grasp the reality of it all. What’s worse, they submitted their Conscious Spending Plan showing a -2% for guilt-free spending. They not only have no joy tied to their money, but on paper, they show it as a detractor on their lives. This is a serious problem—let’s see if we can get them on the right track.
