In this episode we jump right back in like we never left! After a year off, we catch up with the host about being laid off from work, traveling the world, and romantic troubles in Colombia!
In this episode we talk about the cultural differences and opportunities that Americans are provided versus the financial opportunities that other countries such as Colombia are not afforded. Are you taking advantage of the opportunities that you have here? Do you realize that if you make 25k, that you make more money than 90% of the world?!

In this episode we take it back to basics with our money and economics from who we will call 'the voice in the back of our head'. At some point we have all fallen victim to impulse buying and it has knocked us off of our course to stick to a budget and become financially in a better position than what we have been accustomed to in the past. Take notes this episode on how you can stay strong and make it to the promise land.

In this episode we sit down with a Colombian native Mileydis who shares her perspective about the different aspects of a relationship that both men and women need to consider when they are contemplating a marriage by which the man bares the responsibility of providing (in a tradition sense) and the woman is taking care of the household duties. Don't take these decisions lightly when discussing responsibilities with your partner...and if you are not yet in a relationship, ask yourself, are my actions leading me towards the life that I want or am I moving farther away from my desired relationship?
