Mesha (@refillingmywallet) and David talk about their HYSA earnings--which proves to be pretty boring so they talk about an OPB (Other People's Business) and try to determine if a guy is an a*****e for not loaning his girlfriend rent money! Thanks for listening! 

Happy Day 7 of Podmas!!! Today we discuss if you should buy gifts on or off the list? Then we dive into the cost of our housing this year. Everything from what our mortgage cost us to the Zestimate. And then a quick aside regarding renting vs owning! Tune in to get all up in our business. 

Get the group chat ready--Mesha (@refillingmywallet) and David are spilling the tea on their retirement numbers. David tried to get out of it, but in the name of Podmas we have to give the numbers. We also chat about sales calls and a few messages we've received about Podmas! Thanks for listening!

Mesha (@refillingmywallet) and David reflect on all this shit they bought this year and what was worth it and what was a bust. They also tally up how much they spent at Target this year. Of course purchases from 2021 and 2022 being brought up leads to the discussion of the Audi's. The question is was it the best or worst purchase? Thanks for listening and happy Podmas! 

Happy Day 4 of Podmas! Today we total up the amount we spent on subscriptions and compare it to 2021. Then we try to figure out if there's any we can eliminate and how many we'd need to eliminate to make it worth it! Follow @refillingmywallet on Instagram and thanks for listening! 

Mesha @refillingmywallet and David are on Day 3 of Podmas. The series where they do 10-15 minute episodes every day for 25 days! Today they discuss, how much they spent on food outside the house! Last year's number was over 11 grand!?!? Who did they think they were? Is this year higher or lower?? Tune in for this quick 12 minute episode! 

Mesha @refillingmywallet and David discuss credit scores! And both are shocked at the others! Tune in to find out where they stand compared to 2021.

Just A Slice!! We're giving you 25 days of 10 minute episodes. You're going to get the 25 days of content related to our personal finances. We're going to compare where we were either in January 2022 or in December 2021 to where we are now. Today is an introduction and we're sharing our most embarrassing stories! Follow along at @refillingmywallet. 

Mesha @refillingmywallet and David celebrate one year of the podcast! They talk about what they would do if they could guarantee success. David's isn't any surprise and Mesha's lack of support is not the ideal couple response...but it is honesty? They talk about their $100 spending money and the challenges. They also determine what's the cause of the sinking ship.  They discuss Christmas -- SANTA TALK SPOILER -- and NYE. Finally ending on an OPB that we hope is fake! Let us know what you think! 

Mesha @refillingmywallet and David discuss a wide range of topics--they discuss the difficulties of parenthood when you're outside of your home, which ties into an OPB. They discuss Santa and Elf on a Shelf. And they end the topic with a little money discussion and why Mesha has been posting less on Instagram. Thanks for listening!! 

David and Mesha @refillingmywallet discuss their dynamic as a couple and how the household splits everything up. Does Mesha do more? Or does David? Is someone resentful for what they do? Is it weird they don't go to the same dentist? Then they dive into the riveting story of how they got locked out of their hotel this past weekend and were they being a bit too "Karen" about it? Then the discussion on "are we doing too much" may have turned into an argument....that continued on the podcast....

Mesha @Refillingmywallet and David spend the first half catching up on everything you've missed the past few weeks. Mesha brings up selling the house--because why not? Or she wants to spend 50K on renovations! They talk about San Diego, Gifts, Voting and a book she's loving called Brown Enough by Christopher Rivas. They end discussing is it possible to stay content with your life, are you ever fully content or is it always, what's next. Mesha gets a little emotional at the end...but she'll be...

Y'all, this episode is a damn mess haha. If this is your first episode, I can't even tell you it's never been like this before. If this is your 35th episode David said he wouldn't date Mesha if he knew what he knew now. So BUCKLE UP! We talk about our differences, our similarities (did we though??) and if we knew what we knew now would we be together? We also talk about being one and done and why we're good (FOR US) to just have one kid. We also have a long argument about the thumbs up emoji...

CRINGE CRINGE CRINGEEEEEE. Mesha and David read letters they wrote to themselves 10 years in the future. They received these letters back in 2018 but brought them out just to reminisce and cringe at the awkward naive-ness of everything. They also discuss a recurring argument they have and what percentage of happiness they are with one another. Is 80% enough??? Listen in and then let us know what you think @refillingmywallet on Instagram 

Mesha and David FINALLY have an intro---and an outro for the new podcast. Thicker Bread is finally eclipsing Finance Fails and Cocktails. Mesha fills David in on the Try Guy Drama--and he does not care at all. But it leads to a conversation on if we could go into business with friends? Mesha and David reflect on life in Ohio, a debate that truly had them on the brink of divorce and what's next. Mesha gets a bit emotional during the reflection. And David sneezes---he's sorry. They also debate...

Mesha and David just catch up. Nothing specific just going through their date night and the nostalgia it brought. They also talk about why they struggle to say yes to date night. Mesha clarifies a few things from last week regarding children on social media. She makes a decision for her own screen time (after sharing how much she's on her own phone). And apparently David has held in an annoyance he's had for Mesha for who knows how long--but he's sharing today! We hope you like it! As always...

Mesha and David chat about David's bachelor party in Vegas and how much was spent....Mesha was a little taken aback by the number. Mesha informs David what's happening on Tik Tok and asks him to say what type of food she reminds him of...his answer is... not as cute as the Tik Tok ones. They eventually start talking about social media and making money off of it. Is it okay for parents to have their children as the sole content on their social media if that's what makes them money? Who is...

Mesha and David are back and on Wednesday! We talk about the vulnerability of telling your friends ALL of your budget--and would you ask for help? We talk about our funerals (in a hopefully not so morbid way), a few questions about social norms and who pays when? And we end with our 5 year goals and an other people's business! Head over to IG and follow @refillingmywallet! 

If you haven't seen it, you need to! Go watch Get Smart With Money on Netflix. Or just listen to us talk about it and how we could relate to so much of what was happening. Mesha and David talk about shame surrounding money and then dive into their thoughts on this amazing Netflix documentary where 4 financial experts help 4 different people get smart with money. From investing, to living on one income, to literally not knowing where to start. It's absolutely a must watch and you can listen to...

Mesha hasn't been this hot since the health insurance episode. You may want to turn down your volume because she starts to yell. But it's a good one!! David and Mesha start off with bachelorette and bachelor party expenses, what it's like to feel rich, celebrity flight paths and then the big one Student Loan Forgiveness. They cool off with an Other People's Business (OPB) which has them trying to figure who is the a*****e? Follow @refillingmywallet and stick around to see where to follow...
