    Our first little “disagreement” on the podcast. I’m surprised we held out this long. Lol I think it came out really well though.

      I love it! If we all agreed on everything it’d be pretty boring. Debt is such a great thing to argue about…as long as we’re not married!

      I loved how you stepped in there to disagree on the debt issue Carrie! You were very eloquent and polite in how you disagreed. I’m on your side of that issue. There is no such thing as “good debt.” There is nothing good about it!

    I feel like I should be sponsoring the podcast, with all the mentions I get! By the way, I think you are making it too easy for everybody else to figure out that other thing that we don’t talk about. Give it a little more time, if ya know what I mean, so I can still be the lone listener who has cracked the code!

    Another great episode that I enjoyed immensely once again. The round table better step it up a little though. PK’s Fractional Cents is quickly becoming my favorite segment!

      Thanks Matt!

      Are you sure I don’t sound too much like a professor? Ben Stein and I seem to have something in common.
