Mixed messages, poor use of language in an otherwise interesting show

“1. The use of "like" 20 times per thought makes those speaking sound and seem so much less intelligent than they probably are. I don't get why these podcasters don't clean up their speech to avoid sounding "like" uneducated teenagers.
2. Please stop embarrassing yourself with the "capitalism BAD" schtick. You and your guests epitomize the benefits of it-and what is your suggested alternative? You willing to make a lot less, or even shut down, in a different type of economy? Doubtful.
That said:
Episode I'm writing this post-listen wasn't informative, as in "how to get there,"but it was I very inspiring, and interesting. Considering my age, and that I have two daughters near age of the guest, I admired even just that she had succeeded so young, to this point. Interviewers questions were concise and very clear. Not too many little asides about herself, to try to relate or clarify (which rarely works, for people who aren't at a Malcolm Gladwell level)or taking the speaker's answers into too many other lanes--excellent.
My only "eh" is with the podcaster's "whaaa whaaa" factor. Blame men, blame society, lash out at the very thing you are earning from (capitalism), but don't stand firm or clear at all about your experiences and how you rose above those.
The whining about capitalism is laughable here, as referenced above. This woman speaks to those who are successful--and who she, as far as seems reasonable--has a job obtaining info from to help her listeners become successful...
She bemoans capitalism...yet what is her plan for the alternative? Her guest talks about making millions, how much goes to taxes, how people need to stand up for what they're worth, while considering taxes and other expenses, then later essentially says capitalism = bad. It's such a mixed message, with no intelligent or concise back-up.
Debating another listen, bc this guest was very interesting, and others are sure to be, also -but bc of the podcaster herself, it'll be a tough call”Read full review »

“Loved it! Mr. Suarez is very truthful, open and pragmatic; reminds me of my parents. This episode was entertaining to a multigenerational audience. People need this subject (a reality check) on honest spending and saving for aging.”

“I love anytime people talk openly about money and this is exactly what this show is 🙌 Whether we’re right or wrong, taking the taboo out of money talk makes us all better. And Maya’s ability to ask the right questions is spot on!”
