Summary

Meredith is joined by two of her favorite Boston Globe colleagues, business reporters Diti Kohli and Dana Gerber, to chat about two things that have long bothered her: the way lease cycles influence relationships, and the financial gap between coupled people and single people. Plus, they discuss a pair of letters, including one from a single person who is worried their married friends are growing distant.

0:00.0	Hey, everyone! We're about to wrap this season of Love Letters, which, as you know, has been all about love and money.
0:05.6	I've learned so much from our guests and their stories.
0:08.7	But before we go, I need to know, what are you taking away from this season?
0:13.0	What did it make you think about? Did it remind you of a money story from your life?
0:17.7	Do you have any money-related relationship advice that you just need to share with the world?
0:22.8	Send us a short voice memo, like three minutes or less, to lovelettersatboston.com.

1:25.8	about two years. Hello, my name is Ditty Coley. I'm also a business reporter at the Boston Globe,
1:31.4	which means that I cover all of the wonders of our financial lives, and I'm also 22.
1:37.1	Wonderful. Okay, so Ditty, can you tell me a little bit about what you think about when you think
1:43.0	about covering the experience of young people in the city? We just did an episode that featured two
1:48.4	people and the cost of dating. And when you factor that in with rent and drinks are $70.
