There are always more needs and wants than cash to pay for them, so all of us face money trade-offs: pay this bill or that one? treat my kids now, or save for their future? In this episode, Dara and Yasmine chat about just how common money trade-offs are, share some times they’ve traded off one thing for another, and realize they have lots of thoughts about sleep.

One of the worst parts of making trade-offs is when you get down on yourself about it. Your co-hosts explain why you don’t need to beat yourself up, and show how to make hard choices easier by talking to yourself the way a friend would. Warning: they do some role-play.
