This is a show about people that already have lots of money but they are stupid with it. Honestly it's a joke and a slap in the face to working class Americans. It's incredible to me how stupid people are with their money. Spend spend spend. Just a stupid show for stupid people. The most irritating was Frank. Seriously man pay your student loans. What an entitled arrogant annoying man. This is a show about people that already have lots of money but they are stupid with it.

I did ya'll a favor and saw this show in advance to tell you to NOT WATCH THIS SHOW. 1. Obvious stuff like "oh don't spend money on games, foods blah blah" - don't spend on things you WANT. Something we all learn in high school and college AND LIFE. 2. This guy, Ramit, thinks he's a genius with money but, what he says and tells is finance 101 that we all already know of. 3. This is the main reason I hate this show. THIS IS ANOTHER SHOW PROMOTING INFLUENCERS (what are they even influencing anyways? That term is so stupid). They apparently all have channels or personal start up business that they want to promote in this series. Just don't watch it. Stupid show.

The show offers some practical tips on how to live within your means. He kind of presents himself as a Suze Orman solving the spending habits of everyday people. Basically it comes down to spending less in a year than you make and keeping the process habitual, which, initially, can be a huge shock to a lot of people and really make you re-evaluate everything from how many friends you keep to what you keep in the fridge, but if money management were taught in grade school people would be in much better financial positions overall. The problem I have with the show is that his definition of rich is different from mine. From the title, I thought that I'd be introduced to different revenue streams or investment concepts that could build passive income in a short period of time with the goal to live off these investments if I had to.

Watched it all straight away and watching it from the opposite side of the world it showed me how different can it be. It gave me absolutely good points what to think and look into on my own behaviour with money. This program will absolutely help people with many different types of problem with money and things that has something to do with money. The whole season is ~4,6 hours so it gives a little sight about this and that but ofc it is that short it is impossible to drive deeep in to how to get rich. But this definitely will help many many people who are struggling. If you are in need of more information after this, Ramit has more content on his instagram and on his page. If you already are managing your moneys well, you probably still can find something new to your life from this. I love how it showed that how you use money, is not that simple, there is a lot do see "under the surface", the money psychology. Absolutely love it.

Ok so this guy, ramit sethi, goes around to visit different people with different problems to 'help them get rich'. Except. No one is getting rich who is not already rich. First episode included a couple who brings in like 25k a month!, another couple making potentially 250k a year give or take, and a lady who drives a Ferrari and lives in a mansion...these people simply spend too much money. This guy is not giving any useful or even helpful advice that people with common sense don't already know. On top of that, he is giving crap advice like never hire a financial advisor. Seriously...?? Does he think all rich people manage their money all by themselves??? What kind of stupid financial advice is that?? I feel like he's saying that because he couldn't pass his series 7. Either way. I looked him up on YouTube, he only has 200k something followers. Granted bigger following does not equate legitimacy, but smaller following def indicate that he is not adequately credentialed to have his own show where he goes around telling people to spend less than they make basically. Zero stars, thumbs down.

Ramit covers so many critically important financial topics in this show that unfortunately we never learn in school or from our parents. It's really interesting to see how many people never learned how to approach basic financial concepts like saving, credit cards, loans, etc. My favorite thing about Ramit is he doesn't come from a place of judgement or fear mongering. I love watching him dig into everyone's finances. He always has such insightful and intelligent points and breaks them down in a way that's really easy to digest and understand. If you liked this show, I highly recommend his book I will teach you to be rich!

I have seen countless series about personal finance including Dave Ramsey, Caleb Hammer, now this series from Ramit. It was quite refreshing and different, he plays a great listener and is not pushy (after all he has no actual vested interest in anyone's outcome). The series (I am currently on episode 5) has covered a wide variety of people from varying backgrounds and income levels, there are a lot of common threads. Nobody likes to talk about money! I have never heard anyone recommend an hourly advisor vs yearly fee before and it makes sense once you reach the seven figure range. It's basic math. Ramit doesn't shame anyone for renting either which was not expected.

I just cannot imagine wasting anymore of my life watching the show, for a couple of reasons. It's true, too many of the hosts sentences begin with "I", "Me", "My". He simply spends too much time talking about himself, his opinions, his taste etc. But the thing that really blew my mind is when he recommended renting over homeownership! You've got to be kidding! His reasons for doing so didn't even make sense. It's like he had absolutely no training in finances whatsoever. I bought my condo 15 years ago and my monthly payment has not changed in 15 years, while all the rents in my area have skyrocketed. I couldn't believe my ears when he said that, and had to immediately turn it off. He's had some good ideas l, like paying off your credit cards. But beyond that, you really should not watch this show for good financial advice.
