I really enjoyed this episode. I used Dave’s Foundations in Personal finance course along with Love People, Use Things in our homeschool for my high schooler’s personal finance credit. We had so many fantastic discussions. I appreciated what Ryan said about being able to appreciate someone’s talent or art (ie: Kanye West, Dave Ramsey) without having to align with their personal belief systems. Echo chambers make for closed minds and boring company. And the quote from guest Josh about the opposite of faith being certainty. I needed to hear that. Thanks for the episode! Best 5 bucks I spend every month.
