how do you save money if you’ve got a spending problem let’s talk about that a good mythical morning we asked you to ask us questions that you thought that we might be able to give you advice in response to Jessie foster took up the call Thank You Jessie foster for asking us for advice thank all of you for watching and for communicating with us through the various social media platforms because that’s valuable it’s a valuable experience by the way you put that Jessie says I want to save my money but I but I keep buying stuff any advice of course yeah what yeah why do you think we’re asking the question because we’ve already got the answers Jessie’s got a spending problem all right lots of people have a spending problem lots of studies show Jessie that people get a thrill out of just the act of spending money on things not me man well people like Jessie people with a spending problem there’s actually a psychological like reward thing is happening in their brain would like chemicals when they spend money they swipe the card yeah and I say don’ts Welsh that embrace that okay you need to embrace that but you have to do it in a way that will be inconsequential follow me here you get a bunch of worthless worthless things like sticks and rocks stuff that you can get out of your backyard out of the woods around your house and you set them up in a little store and you put prices on them that make them as expensive as you want then you get monopoly money worthless you invite a friend over on eclis you have to pay from monopoly money you can get it at a thrift store man all kinds of monopoly money for really really really cheap and then you make a shopkeeper you make a friend the shopkeeper I’ll do that in Zelda link I would love to be that so in other words I have a spending problem and what this is what I want to do you’re basically telling her to play pretend yeah yeah yeah I want you to come over to my house I want you to set up a shop I want you to wear a wig I want you to put a band that you’d like to wear and sell sticks and rocks yeah and I’ll be like and you’re gonna be like I got this rock right here for $200 you’d be like but I got this stick for $500 and when I buy that stick from you from for $500 it will satisfy those neurons will fire in my brain and I’ll be satisfied and I won’t go buy a car that’s my advice take what it leave it what if what if she just went to the store bought real stuff because I think there’s going to be more thrill in that and buying sticks and rocks but then immediately return it that maybe she’ll get her thrill from that I think if you add if you have a spending problem at least don’t spin it all on yourself spin it on charity and then because you’re a selfish human being you’ll start spending less and less because it’s a feeling somebody else readjusting you’re not know my system is spin if you’re going to spend money spinning on charity a B for every dollar that you spend on charity you’re still getting the spending throw right and you’re also helping people is something that you’re or animals or whatever it is you’re interested in and then you’re also putting a dollar away in savings I got this system with my kids called the live give save jars they literally have jars that they put money and you came up with this or your watch it my wife okay that makes either came up with it or heard about it it’s a great thing but you you physically take your money and when you put it aside in something that’s labeled save you actually save more that way is it an actual jar and you should probably put a lock on it or a valve so that you can’t get inside of it like a piggy bank huh for for more money than just like pennies because that’s a slow saving thing that’s my idea the jar system the used jars lockable jar so take one of those pieces of advice and you know give it a whirl David Wilbanks says I have a friend with terrible body odor should I stop being friends with him I feel so inadequate because my Bo is never that bad at first I thought feeling inadequate yeah I think what he’s saying is he wishes he could stink more so they could stink together and but I think what you’re really asking is what do I do about a friend as terrible body odor how do I address this and there’s lots of lots of ways to do this I mean one of the most common ways to address this is you spray the person down with Febreze when they’re sleeping you invite them over for a sleepover and then when they hopefully they’ve got their arms in the air and when they roll over it in a dream sequence yeah all your advice is about like playtime types like pretend to have a shop these are not these are not like grade schoolers are they it invite them over for a sleepover camping with them okay I mean any way that you can break into their house at night any way that you can get access to them while sleeping spring them down that’s the first thing that’s not a sustainable model how about this one try this one on for size tell them that they have a body odor prompt okay you run them confront them I’m all about this I mean you really I mean that’s the real advice here but yeah you can’t defend somebody because they have a problem that they’re just ignorant of or something you just got to be honest with them you got to approach them and say if you’re not able to spray the mother sleeping then you could just you gotta tell them they might need to see a doctor or get like clinical strength something or other and you just have to say listen hey I know you might you’re struggling with this and I’m your friend and I want to help you this with this I want you to know as a friend you stank I can smell you from here smell you right now I smell you I always smell you before I see you you could tell them that and I want to help you address this problem let’s figure it out together let’s unstick you together you know make it like a team effort let’s unstick you together jessa
