| 0:00.0 | Hello, whinabbers my name is Jesse Meekam, and this is podcast number 238 for Wineb, where we teach you four rules to help |
| 0:15.8 | you stop living paycheck to paycheck, get out of debt and save more money. Today I want to talk |
| 0:20.9 | about outsourcing. I was pleased to be featured by my good buddy Mr Money Mustache on his blog fairly recently and one of the questions he asked me was about fitness. How do you do the fitness thing? I love fitness, but lately I've been pretty |
| 0:34.7 | busy not thinking about fitness and I had the thought while doing the interview, I've |
| 0:40.4 | basically outsourced it. And I don't mean outsourced in the sense that you have someone else do the work for, |

| 1:23.0 | And that's the part I'm really liking. |
| 1:25.0 | I'm getting results without the mental overhead of thinking exactly how I'm supposed to get those results. |
| 1:30.0 | And could you not potentially apply that to your money? |
| 1:33.6 | Could you not perhaps outsource your |
