Why a janitor can beat a Harvard MBA at investing, and why "enough" is the hardest financial skill to master.

In this episode, we dive into Morgan Housel's The Psychology of Money. Most people think financial success is about math, formulas, and IQ. But as Housel explains, doing well with money has little to do with how smart you are and a lot to do with how you behave.

We explore the incredible story of Ronald Read, a janitor who amassed an $8 million fortune, and compare him to Richard Fuscone, a Merrill Lynch executive who went bankrupt because he couldn't control his greed.

Key Lessons Covered:

• Luck & Risk: Why Bill Gates and his friend Kent Evans are two sides of the same coin.

• The Man in the Car Paradox: Why no one is impressed with your Ferrari as much as you are.

• Wealth is What You Don't See: The difference between being "Rich" (spending) and "Wealthy" (not spending).

• The Power of Compounding: How Warren Buffett accumulated $81.5 billion after he qualified for Social Security.

• Freedom: Why control over your time is the highest dividend money pays.

"Is 'Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus' a relationship bible or a manual for outdated stereotypes? 🧐

In this Stuck in The Middle Podcast x Palm Wine Central book club episode, Unkle AK and Terez go head-to-head on the most controversial parts of John Gray's classic. We're asking: did he get it right, or did he teach women to play small?

In This Explosive Debate:

- The "Man Cave" Theory: Is it a necessary male process or just an excuse for poor communication?

- The "Rubber Band" Theory: Terz calls it "permission to be emotionally distant."

- AK's SHOCKING Analogy: He compares the "man cave" to... a woman's menstrual cycle?!

- Does This Book Ask Women to "Shrink Themselves"?

- The "Point System" RANT: AK loses it over the idea that all gestures are "one point."

- "Your Vagina Should Be Screaming!" AK's unfiltered take on big gestures.

- AK's "Better" Love Letter: His hilarious (and X-rated) modern alternative to writing.

What part of this book still holds value for you, and what belongs in relationship history? Let us know in the comments below!

Join the SITM PODCAST Book Club as we deep dive into Mike Gayle’s novel, The One That Got Away, an emotional journey through heartbreak and idolization.

Reuben discovers his ex-girlfriend, Beth, is getting married just six months after their breakup. We unpack the hurricane of emotions, internet stalking, and the elaborate "anti-wedding thing" planned by his friends. The story hinges on a surprising wedding day phone call: Beth asks Reuben to come rescue her from her own wedding.

What drives Reuben’s actions? We explore whether his behavior is motivated by genuine love or toxic idealization, especially considering he had put Beth on a pedestal, believing she was "perfect". Beth broke up with him after he "kissed someone else in a moment of weakness", but the underlying tension was her core belief: she doesn't believe in the idea of romantic love.

The ultimate twist hits when we discover Beth’s fiancé, Leo, has also run away. Reuben, who spent months stuck in heartbreak, must now face the truth: the reason Beth ran was not to return to him. The hosts break down Reuben's path to healing as he puts aside his pain to reunite the true couple.

Key Discussion Points from the Episode:

• Reuben's friends rent a Ferrari as an "Anti-Wedding Day" distraction was this "helpful or misguided"?

• The tension between "words of affirmation" (Reuben’s need for "I love you") and "acts of service" (Beth’s demonstration of love).

• Was Reuben "emotionally immature" or just a "hopeless romantic"?

• How Leo's acceptance of Beth's worldview ("I be me, you be you") was the key difference that Reuben missed.

Did Reuben's journey end satisfactorily? Let us know in the comments below: Do you think everyone has "the one that got away," or is that just a romantic myth?
