033 Life’s a Trip: Would You Help Your Parents If It Set You Back? What is Considered Struggling?

Cousins, it’s time for another Life’s a Trip! This week, we’re diving into some of the toughest money conversations families face. Should adult children help their parents financially, even if it sets them back? What advice would you give someone approaching retirement who isn’t financially prepared? And what’s actually harder, making money, keeping money, or saying no? We also tackle a question that’s sure to spark debate: Can someone honestly say they’re struggling financially while continuing to spend money on luxury items? As always, Necia and Hailey share their honest perspectives, challenge each other’s viewpoints, and invite you to think critically about money, family, responsibility, and financial priorities. There may not be one right answer, but these are conversations worth having. Tap in, cousins, and let us know in the comments: Which question challenged your perspective the most?
