Mailbag: Daymond John And Dave Ramsey Recently EXPOSED
An autistic listener writes in with a sexual story unrelated to money. (Skip to 3:09 if you want to opt out.) Then, Gabe shares their own autism journey and how weird it's been to share. A fast fashion author quotes Gabe's book Bad With Money in their own book. Julia writes in to talk about how they needed to write an essay in order to be promoted as a software engineer, and how burnt out that made them. Another listener writes in to explain what happened to them when they just stopped paying their credit card debt, and how they got sued. Why did we all have to learn Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing?? Amy Fritz shares her terrible experiences with Dave Ramsey and it sounds way too much like Scientology, and Bubba's food truck exposes problems with Shark Tanks' Daymond John.
