What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I’ve been watching a lot of budget and personal finance podcasts, and this has been, by far, the most helpful one. I love that he follows up with the couples after their initial meeting to see how they’re doing. I also enjoy how he pauses the interview to share what he’s noticing and thinking in real time. And I really appreciate that he asks viewers to be respectful toward the The only thing I’m a little iffy about is that many of the people featured have a high net worth and earn well over $100,000 a year, so I can’t completely relate to their financial situations

Y3$ik@B · Jul 2026

This is my new favorite podcast when I do yard work. Yesterday I listened to how to reach 100K then followed the couple in episode 250 & 251. I currently have student loans and want to pay them off aggressively. While listening I realize the importance of planning for the future and saving/ investing while I pay off my loans. Becoming debt free is not about being debt free. It’s learning how to use what you make to live the life you want and realizing what actually matters.

I’ve learned SO much from Ramit—he makes it all so accessible. I appreciate the balance between discussion of money facts and emotions around money. I also appreciate the discussion of personal agency within the larger context of structural factors (housing, immigration, educational, and healthcare policies, for example).

I first heard of Ramit on Bigger Pockets Money and have been hooked ever since. Money for Couples is a must-listen for any couples who want to have more control over their money while enjoying life!!

SusanHerschell · Apr 2026

I listened to an episode in which persons explained that they’d changed their view of wealthy people as being “evil” because they attended private school on a scholarship and were exposed to wealthy individuals whose families did good things with their wealth. It was stated that this “opened their eyes” to the world. I actually laughed out loud. Millions of workers in The United States have seen their wages stagnate, benefits cut, and cost of living rise. Their children go to under-funded schools. Getting sick can mean bankruptcy. My question for the hosts of this show and their guests is who benefits economically from such a scenario? Just because affluent individuals are nice doesn’t mean their wealth was not obtained through exploitation of the majority. A system can be uncorrupt and still exploit millions (which it does). So, I wonder if the hosts and guests will “open their eyes” to this reality? I wonder if they’d explore the myth of meritocracy and examine how, no matter how millions of people budget, the system itself keeps them from becoming affluent. The system has to do so. It’s the way it’s designed.

weekend home · Jun 2026

I like his unique perspective on money within couples, and how he approaches issues by looking at each partners mindset. However he’s incredibly condescending towards people who use methods he doesn’t like (ex. Real estate investment and budget trackers). The CSP is a budget tracker, just on a monthly level. Spending 5 minutes ranting about another version is unnecessary.
