You got problems that you ought to be concerned with, blah, you don't know how you're supposed to earn it or what to do with it or how to keep it.

You're a freak with a dark shame, folks see it break, but you're not the only one.

Teach your hidden financial fears to the blessed sun. Now your healing has begun. It's back with money with Gabby.

Done. Hi. I'm Gabby Dunn and this is my show Bad with Money.

This episode is so far from a bummer, it almost feels like too much of a treat, like an indulgence, a sexual binge if you will.

In the first ever episode of this show, I went out to a coffee shop near my apartment and asked random people there two questions.

You think me being Don Monogamous is disgusting? How retro!

But, just when you think you figured out your sexuality, boom! There comes gender hitting you smack in the face.

I've mentioned this on social media and if you follow my other podcast just between us and Tuckwood Stocks podcast gender reveal, then you've heard me talk about it.

But yes, let's get official. My pronouns are now they them theirs. I'm non-binary.

You can't see that I'm putting my hands under my face like a cherub.

I came out officially on July 5th with a photo on my Instagram of me holding a sparkler.
