Ramit Sethi challenges Carl on his money-saving habits despite having $4M. Carl argues for valuing time over money, citing TSA PreCheck and weeks spent on home repairs. The conversation explores when it makes sense to spend money to buy back your time.
I don't think the two of you actually want to change. You occasionally acknowledge that what you're doing is not serving you, but you have redefined the way that you treat money to be a virtue. How does that strike you?
I would disagree, and I think it's a factor of age. I value my time more than anything right now. Mindy will tell you another flight story. For the longest time, I wouldn't sign up for pre check, and we just did. And it's glorious.
Pre check costs like $50.
I know, right? I think it's 75 by now.
Carl, if you really cared about the time that you could get back, then you would not be spending the next four to 12 weeks doing doors. Mindy, how does it strike you? What I said?
