  • An Easy Way to Make $50 a Month
    Oct 22 2024

    I filed for Bankrupcy in 2004. I know there is a difference between being poor and being BROKE.

    Today I share a strategy I've been doing for most of this year and it's saving me close to $50 a month and I don't have to do a thing.

    A bundle of Disney+, Hulu, and Max is $30/month
    Peacock $14/month
    Paramount and Showtime $13/month.
    Total: $57

    (and yes, I know there are more).

    Rotate Your Streaming Services:

    • Cancel all but one streaming service at a time.

    • Saves up to $50 a month by only paying for one service at a time.

    • Focus on quality content, avoiding time wasted on subpar shows.

    Smart Meal Planning:

    • Instead of eating out, consider quick and affordable home cooking.

    • A simple George Foreman Grill can make delicious burgers at a fraction of the cost.

    • This not only saves money but is healthier and faster than fast food.

    Avoid Impulse Purchases:

    • Think twice before buying things you don’t need, especially during sales.

    • Consider if the purchase truly adds value to your life.

    • Practice this discipline to accelerate your journey towards being debt-free.

  • What's Wrong with My Brain? Dealing with Self-Doubt and Recognition
    Oct 10 2024

    In the latest episode, I share my personal experience with podcasting, detailing how I ended up in podcasting post-divorce while living in my brother's basement.

    Despite successfully establishing myself over two decades and earning recognition, I still struggle with imposter syndrome. Reflecting on accolades like being called an influencer and my moves within the industry, I discuss the complicated feelings of self-worth and acceptance.

    Wrapping up, I share some cozy moments from my day-to-day life, which help ground me amid these introspective thoughts.

  • Get Your Money Working For You

    Welcome to another episode of Better Dave! Today, I'm diving into the fascinating world of personal finance and exploring how we can get our money working for us.

    I've spent over three decades with the same bank, but recently, I've rediscovered the benefits of modern financial tools like SoFi and Acorns.

    As I monitor my income and outcome in Monarch, I have noticed the more attention you spend on your money, the more money there is to manage.

    Whether you're drowning in debt or just looking for smarter ways to manage your finances, there's something here for everyone. So, let's get started on building a better financial future together!
