They talk through transparency, privacy, passcodes, deleted messages, and what phone boundaries can reveal about trust, insecurity, and the bigger health of a relationship. They also answer real financial questions people may feel awkward asking, including what financial advisors actually do, whether it is okay to hide small purchases from your spouse, and the money habits that make Brett cringe most.
