In this episode, we reflect on the purchases that once sparked joy… and now spark nothing but regret. From things we were convinced would change our lives to expenses that made sense only in the moment (and absolutely not the morning after), we’re unpacking all the money we lovingly set on fire.
With the wisdom that only time—and a depleted bank account—can bring, we break down what we thought we were buying versus what we actually got. Spoiler: it was rarely worth it. Expect honesty, self-roasting, and the comforting reminder that financial mistakes are basically a universal hobby.
We’re also not suffering alone. Our listeners came through with their own spending confessions, and honestly… some of you should be monitored.
If you’ve ever said “it’ll be worth it” and then quietly never mentioned it again, this episode will feel uncomfortably familiar.
