Slow Money Moves Still Matter

George Kamel and Rachel Cruze answer listener questions covering marital financial secrecy, whether to file bankruptcy or drain a retirement account to address $120,000 in debt, rebuilding finances after a divorce at age 60, handling family perceptions when sticking to a budget, and whether to start a business immediately after a job loss. The episode reinforces the Ramsey Baby Steps as a framework for these life-money decisions.
