    She is insane and irresponsible, who the hack spends $10k a month in a situation like this, but I blame him the most because he allowed her to waste all his savings. Based on the info she provided they had about $700k in 2018. They could have invested all that money in dividend-paying stocks or real estate and live off the returns. They should have downgraded the house back in 2018!

    Rachel and Dr. John totally missed this call. You didn’t ask her what her income is and is the husband taking care of the kids while she’s working? Are they saving on daycare? Why is it okay that woman can do this and not men? Maybe her husband is depressed or can’t find a job equally to the one he had. There’s a lot to unfold here. Just so many questions not posed. Also, she obviously has a spending problem. Y’all not ready to take over this show without Dave YET!

      ​@@BrianErwin the fact that her husband isn't making any money is clearly a bigger problem than not having a budget. Her spending isnt crazy for a family that had 500k lying around 5 years ago.
      Clearly the guy doesn't want to take the time to discuss a budget with her anyhow. It is hard to tell what exactly is going on here. Did they both want to just enjoy the money for a while and had no plan for actually going back to work? Has the relationship changed now that they have four children? Can he not fathom working a job anymore after he had some success? Did he get lucky in the past and now he thinks he has a skill that will make him a successful entrepreneur?

    Calls like this make me miss Ramsey. Yes, there's a relationship issue here, but this couple has a math problem that needs to be addressed pronto. Ramsey would have asked where the money is going--how much is the mortgage, how many cars/car notes do they have, can they sell one of the cars, etc. Can the wife return to a career while her husband works on his project and/or finds a new job?
    They must be spending a fortune on health insurance for a family of six. Even a very modest job would solve that problem.
    Losing a job can be devastating. It's easy to think you can't do anything but the thing you did before. These negative thoughts get worse over time. This couple needs to face their fears and jump back into the work force.

It’s very common for owners to reinvest everything into company so it’s possible he’s actually been productive this time just not taking it out personally yet.

It was our only income in our household and we also had a new born baby with a serious mortgage. Told my wife that I will land a better job within 3-months (amount of the severance package) so it won't impact our family, I set a motivation that if I could do this then I'll buy myself the Green Egg smoker grill I've always wanted.
