    24: Will You Stop Glorifying Being Busy?
    Oct 6 2025
     Welcome back to Broke is Boring. And today we're gonna talk about how to raise kids who know what the real value of wealth means. As moms here, raising kids in, in these times. We really want to teach values to teach them that generosity is so important. And that freedom that they can get to because their adulthood is gonna look completely different from our adulthood. And I really want to lean into not glorifying that grind culture that we've become so familiar with, I don't want my kids to, when I ask them what's new with them, them to just say, oh, I'm busy. Like I don't wanna keep glorifying being busy. Okay. I have a story with this. So my 10-year-old just applied to a writing contest and she was really proud of it. But she wrote about a story about when we were in Barcelona this past year. For her 10th birthday and my husband and I try to teach our girls to live with an open hand, so instead of a closed fist. And what that means is when you have an open hand, you can give and receive. And when you have a closed fist, you can't lose any money that's in your hand, but you also can't receive any. So we have this open hand concept. We've really like drilled it in, you know, really taught it a lot throughout our parenthood. As we've been parents, so we're in Barcelona, we have this banana from the cruise ship, and it's been in our bag all day and we're on the beach and it is like kind of brown and, you know, smashed a little. But we got it that day. It's still good, but we're not gonna eat it. And we turn around and there's a guy digging through the trash behind us and we said, Hey, why don't we go give this banana to that guy? And. Our 10 year old's like, okay, I'll go do it. And so she did. So she went and gave the guy the banana and instead of us throwing this away, right, and he immediately said, Gracia, and then he started eating it. He walked away and just opened it up and started eating it. So my daughter wrote about that, and she just wrote that what she learned was that she had to be brave because she was in a foreign country. She was talking to a stranger. You know, my husband went with her, of course, but. And then the other lesson she learned is that you, you don't have to speak the same language to be kind. And then when we are reading it to you, your lesson was also that like it costs $0 to be kind. And she, so she added that to the, to the submission for the contest. And it was just like such a proud parenting moment that she, this was what she wanted to write about and reflect on for this contest. I love that. And it just shows who she is as a kid and her heart and you as parents on full display. I'm really proud of her. I'm proud of her too. Thanks. Thanks girl. So like, what does, what does wealth mean to you? Like, again, we always go just toward the financial wealth because that's what we were always taught. And then when I read that book, five types of Wealth that really hit home, like for me being. Together for lunch and dinner every single day. I know it's such a gift because probably 90% of American families are either not present for one or both of those meals, and I know a lot of families out there haven't had a sit down meal together in ages because they pack the evening schedule with. Sports and practice and work and all these things that for them to just sit down and ask how each other's day was, is something that just doesn't really happen. So for me, that's like a huge time wealth thing that I, I really love when I ask someone how they are and they immediately say they're busy. It's, it's a trigger for me because busy is a choice. And if you have a full calendar. You show it to me, I bet I can see the choices you've made to fill that calendar. To me, wealth is an empty calendar, an availability and an openness to receive new ideas. Like, oh, do you want to go to lunch? Sure, because I'm available. And being able to be fully present parents with the girls. When we are working on our phones, they'll be like, oh, why are you on your phone? And we're like because it's two in the afternoon on a Tuesday. This is how we work. And most people have parents who are at work and then the kids are in school. And also then you would go to an afterschool program and I wouldn't see you till this evening. And then we would probably take you to a, some sport. Sport, right? So like, your life is not, your life is different and you're welcome. And you're welcome. Another thing I, another thing I think is super important as Luca grows up is giving him that abundance without spoiling him. And he, as a 4-year-old, a normal 4-year-old is we're experiencing, you know, we're going into all these markets on our world crews, and he's just, I wanna buy that. I wanna buy that. I wanna buy that. And I just have to keep saying, no, no, no. Or I didn't bring money for that. And he. Probably thinks that we have no money at all. But I'm trying to, you know, not lean into buying him anything he ever ...

    23: We Built The Lives We Thought We Wanted, Now We're Dreaming Even Bigger
    Sep 1 2025
     Welcome back to another episode of Broke is Boring. Today we're gonna talk about how we built the lives we thought we wanted, but now we're dreaming even bigger. Is it possible to just continue to set goals? You know, if you, you set a goal, you, you achieve it, and then are you done? I think the answer has to be no. I actually find this to be in my business a lot because there's different ranks and so you strive so hard for one rank, you finally hit it, but you never just stop. Don't run to the rank, you run through it because then you go to the next one and the next one and you're, and Dan was like, so you're gonna stop when you hit that this one, right? And and I'm like, yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. That's six figures. I don't need anything more. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'll stop then. Then you hit it and you're like, Ooh. But the next one is gonna open up even more doors and possibilities. And what I realized is like helping other people. Hit their goals in their business and their ranks in their business. Only just bring me up further and it becomes this kind of like win-win. And then it makes me never wanna stop. And I'm really struggling with this, honestly, like between you and me I retired my husband that well first, no. My first goal in my business when, which I started seven years ago, was to make the same, I would pay for daycare. Mm-hmm. So that way I knew, okay, if I wanna stay home when I have kids, I can. Then I hit that in the first couple months and then I said, okay, let me match my teaching salary. That was my next goal. We've talked about that. $38,000. I did that in my first year. Perfect. Done check. I can do that again, and now I can have this business be my primary income. If I want it to be approved to myself, I can. Then after I did that, my goal was to retire my husband. To, to get to an income level in my business where we would have that option because he was always super miserable in his finance job. And so that was a really big stretch goal that we hit last year. And so we decide, so when we booked this world cruise, it gave us a deadline. It gave us a specific date where we said, okay, he has to retire by that date so we can do this world cruise. And that's just kind of like putting all those pieces into action. Right. So then. I hit six figures in my business, which actually wasn't my goal. Again, money is never my goal. It's always what the money can do for me. It's always a tool. So hitting six figures was not actually a, a goal like it, it was part of it, part of the equation, but it wasn't the goal. So then last year, the day before his 40th birthday, Dan had his last day of work. It was awesome. He rode his bike in and rode, you know, was coming into the driveway and was like, meet, meet with this little, oh, I love that, that it was this little bike thing. That was fun. Okay, so then it was Dan retire and then we want to eventually planned a flag in Europe. So last summer we purchased a home in Ireland. For a variety of reasons, Ireland was the best place for us to plant that European flag. So. So I'm like, oh my God. Okay. I left my job, I made my income, I made enough that Dan could retire. I, I have a mom. I'm a mom of a healthy, happy, sweet kid. We now have this home in Europe. We're on this four month world cruise like. What is next for me? Like I, I'm actually struggling with this because I feel like I've, I have everything I've ever wanted and I, this is the first time in my life I haven't had like a huge life goal that I'm working toward. It's been so fun to watch you go through that, like understanding on the crews, you know, you, you and Dan kind of talked through this like you guys have been really successful at setting goals. Same with Marco and I and achieving them. So in our life, people will always come up to us and say, Hey, what have you guys got going on? Because they always know we have something going on. I'm gonna have something interesting to tell you and. That we're in the exact same position with you right now. When we go back, what do we have going on? What is the next thing? Our rental properties are doing great, and they all have brand new HVAC and roof and plumbing and electric. All the things that we have dealt with, all that sexy stuff. So many years. You know, when we were on the world cruise while there was like bad weather back in Indiana. This was the first winter where we weren't like, oh no, what is gonna happen now? You know, it's rainy again. What is going to flood? And knock on wood, we got through the entire season and it was like, oh my gosh, we did it. Like we have good sustainable properties. This is going well. Well now what is next? Hold on. I do wanna point something out though, because I feel like we're in the one percenters of the people who actually hit make, make that goal and then say, okay, what do I have to do to hit that goal? A, B, C, D. Okay, let me do A, B, C, D. Like, what Gene do you and I have what? Like. ...

    22: Why Go To Couples Therapy When You Can Go To Iceland?
    Aug 25 2025
     Welcome to Broke is Boring. The podcast where we stop glorifying the struggle and start talking about what really matters. Freedom, living life on your own terms and the money you need to make that happen. We're your hosts, Tiffany and Jane, and we're two mamas who love making money and spending it on the things that truly matter to us. So pull up a seat at our table and let's get into it because Broke is boring and we are here to prove that money does in fact buy happiness. 1, 2, 3.  Welcome back to Broke is Boring. And today we're gonna talk about who needs couples therapy when you've got Iceland. Hello from Iceland, and we are here with our amazing friend Danielle, who also somehow crushed this romantic getaway that Tiffany and Mark planned. So let's back it all the way up. How the heck did we end up in this camper right here, huddled around our phone in Iceland to record this. Okay, so every year my parents for Christmas give us a Christmas gift of a, it started out as a weekend away. Well the first time they did that, mark and I went to Belgium for the weekend, from Indianapolis for the weekend. Yeah, because. My mom thought I was gonna like spend a romantic evening at melting pot, like having fondue with Mark in downtown Indy. No, no, no, no, no. We're going pub hopping in Brussels. Thanks so much. And so that's what we did. And somehow over the years, it has actually gotten to be one week. So this year she said, Merry Christmas, you get a week away. Where are you gonna go? Well, we went on a world cruise and I'm like, I don't know. I can't think past the world cruise. Go on the world cruise. We come back and we're like, Hmm. Jane and Dan always talked about Iceland on the cruise. Well, no, you said, where should we go? And I said, go to Iceland, but do it in a way you can't do it with your kids, which should be in a camper van. And so we did. So we were like, okay, we're doing it. We booked it. That's, hold on. That's one thing I actually really love about you guys. You always say what you're gonna do. You are like, that sounds great. And then two days later you're like, so we booked that. Like you don't think twice about anything and I really admire that about you. I think that's why Danielle and I have. Definitely connected over the years. Like so we're cousins growing up, we were, how, how different do we have six years difference. Age difference. Yes. Six or five. Yeah. So, so we were close growing up and then Danielle and Ethan came to visit us when we lived in Italy, and I think that was really when we like hit it off and kind of got the travel bug in you guys also. Is that like Yes, a right scenario? Yeah, it really was when we saw you guys in Italy and we saw it was our first experience going overseas and getting to like really hang out with you guys for an extended period of time and we realized we had so much in common. So yeah, ever since then we've loved, like following what you guys do and trying to make our own version of it too. And they've done it so they are traveling all over with their kids too. And so, when you suggested that we do a camper van in Iceland, we're like, okay, yeah, we're gonna go do that. And then what happened ladies? And then we got jealous and we're like, well. I wanna come on that. We, we wanna come. Yeah. That actually sounds amazing, weren't it? And then I was like, there's no way my mom would watch Luca for a whole week. And I don't know how she said it. I think I, I probably planted the seed. 'cause I'm really good at that. Yes, you are. And I'm like, oh mom, Tiffany and Mark are going to Iceland for a week. How amazing is that? They're doing it without kids and, and then I think she eventually offered and we took her up on it immediately. Yeah, that's right. Because I think on the world cruise we had discussed that we have this week away. So Betsy was there also listening to my parents talk about all the shenanigans we've gotten into over the years, getting this week away. And then when she offered to watch Luca for the week, then even Mark and I were like, you have to come. Like this is the opportunity of a lifetime. Let's go. Well then it was like that weekend, right? We went to one of my, I, my cousin's house we're playing, I think we were playing kickball. Kickball that weekend. Kickball, yes. And we're talking about it. And then we ended up, yeah, we ended up crashing along to, I don't even remember our exact conversation, but we were like. We're in, like, that sounds amazing. You want to come And we actually have never done a kid free trip ever. My oldest son's nine years old and we've never been away for any kind of trip. So we went to my mom and was like so what do you think about this? And she agreed. It was really funny because Ethan said that or maybe you said your mom. Asked like, why Iceland? And you're like, yeah, yeah. We were like, we've never been. It sounds awesome. It looks beautiful. And the only, the only rule was that we ...
