Financial Indelity, Bad Credit, and the Money Secrets Partners Keep | Am I the Financial A-Hole?
Networth and Chill with Your Rich BFFShow Notes
In this next installment of "Am I The Asshole? Finance Edition," Vivian is back to sort through the financial disasters you've been too afraid to say out loud, calling out who's actually in the wrong with zero sugarcoating.
In this episode, you'll learn:
1. How to set financial boundaries without blowing up your relationships and how to recognize when someone's counting on you being too uncomfortable to enforce them.
2. What you actually owe people in tangled money situations: think joint purchases that go south, informal loans that never get repaid, and group dynamics where one person is quietly carrying everyone else.
3. How to stop letting guilt, obligation, and "but they're family" override your financial common sense, plus Vivian's takes on when generosity becomes a pattern you need to break.
