Money, Marriage, and Moving In To Middle-Age With Daniel Womack

 
 

This post may contain affiliate links. Visit my disclaimer page for more info.

My husband, Daniel Womack, joins A Sunny Side Up Life podcast to talk about his perspective on our debt free journey, budgeting, and different client personal finance situations.

Daniel and I have been married for 14 years, together 19 years. Through that time we’ve gone from half a million dollars in debt to an over three hundred and fifty thousand dollar net worth. 

It hasn’t always been rainbows and butterflies– and often in the personal finance space, a male partner’s perspective is missing. If you’re wondering what it’s like living with a money nerd and financial coach, this episode is for you!

In this episode, we chat about:

  • Our love story + how we each grew up with money

  • How we ended up in debt + the actions we took to get out of it

  • The biggest money mistakes we’ve made as a married couple (hint: Keeping Up With The Joneses) 

  • Retiring early, living an intentional life + the difference between wanting to work and needing to work

  • Why you need to budget in cheap fun while you’re getting your financial house together so you can have rich fun in the future + more
