171. “I got into a PhD program! But he’s only worrying about the cost”
About this episode
Katy and David are both 32. She just got into a PhD program—one she’s very excited about! But David replied by peppering her on possible outcomes, timing, and most of all, cost. It’s just one stark demonstration of how they’re misaligned on money, but many more examples come to light.
