Top 5 Eye-Roll Financial Tips You Should Ignore SB1664

The Stacking Benjamins Show

Ever been told to buy the biggest house you can afford... to “motivate yourself”? Or to skip insurance because “nothing bad will happen”? Yeah—us too. And we’ve got some thoughts.

In this episode, Joe, OG, and Doug break down the Top 5 Worst Financial Tips they’ve ever heard—and more importantly, why taking them seriously could leave your finances in a flaming dumpster behind your dreams.

From personal debt confessions to debates about extreme couponing, bad budgeting ideas, and the wild world of TikTok money myths, this episode is your roadmap to not falling for advice that sounds smart but… absolutely isn’t.

In this episode:

• Why “buying big” won’t necessarily inspire you—it might just bankrupt you
• Skipping insurance to save money? We’ll show you how that plan ends
• Should couples really share just one checkbook? We investigate
• The great emergency fund vs. credit card debate
• When DIY everything turns into Why Did I Try?
• How the satire in The Joneses movie is secretly more real than you think
• Listener Q&A: Impact investing, private debt financing, and what it means to be an accredited investor
• Plus, a surprise TikTok moment, OG's thoughts on calendars, Doug’s history of April Fools’ disasters, and much more

You’ll laugh, you’ll learn, and by the end, you’ll be a whole lot more confident dodging bad advice in the wild.

🎧 Tune in and stack smarter by skipping the “advice” that could sink your stack.
