What can a 90s rom-com starring Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan teach us about money? A lot more than you'd think. In this fun and insightful episode of Money & Movie Mashup, Laura Sexton and Coach David Gibbs break down the financial truths hidden in You’ve Got Mail. From generational wealth and class dynamics to emotional spending and the myth that money makes you evil—we unpack it all with humor, heart, and just a little bit of nerdy nostalgia.
Whether you're a golden retriever spender, a savvy beaver builder, or a hopeful ostrich, this episode explores how your money identity impacts your relationships, career, and legacy.
In this episode you’ll learn:
