137. “MLMs, crypto, real estate—I can’t stop falling for get-rich-quick schemes” (Part 2)

David, 33, and Halima, 37, return to follow-up on last week’s episode, where we learned about their debt, painful backgrounds, unrealistic expectations, and patterns of negative behavior with money. Today, Ramit brings them back down to earth, dissects their numbers, and sets the stakes.
