A short transcript from a YouTube clip (Ramit Sethi interviewing Mindy) in which Mindy states she expects to have about $32 million by age 74. Ramit probes what that means to her and challenges her ability to practice spending now if she finds large sums "unfathomable"; Mindy expresses disconnection from that future wealth and appears emotionally unsettled.
Mindy, how much did you say you're going to have by the time you're, like, 70 or 80 or something?
I'll have like 32 million or something like that.
$32 million at age 74?
Yeah.
What does it mean to you?
That's unfathomable. I don't really identify with that.
If you can't learn to spend a little bit of money right now, then how can you learn to spend millions and millions and millions of dollars? Mindy's taking deep breaths right now.
Don't know how to handle that kind of money.
