Welcome to Friday of our Greatest Hits Week.

I'm Joe Saul-Chi, and let's talk about why I chose today's episode and give you the

rundown on what to look out for from an episode that we played previously. If you're brand new to the show on

Greatest Hits Weeks, I always like to begin them with a little why and what to listen for.

And on Fridays, we normally here have a roundtable discussion between frequent contributors

or people who are prominent in either the

blogging space in the personal finance community or the podcasting space. And this is a roundtable

with three of our frequent contributors, Paula Pant, Len Penzo, and OG. And on this episode, you know, I opened up this

week talking about clutter and about how sometimes it makes these episodes for me. Because right now,

just getting back from vacation and I think about not just the clutter around me, but the

clutter in my mind, clutter all over the place.

I really am in cleanup mode.

So I'm super excited to replay this because I think for all of us, we're in the same spot.

Now, we often have this construct on Fridays called a game show, And we take a piece from the financial press,

and it's generally one of these crazy lists. Sometimes they're good. Usually they're pretty bad lists.

But what I love is that we ask our contestants, our contributors to the Friday episode, to bring their own list to the table.

And often the things that our contributors come up with are far, far, far better than what's in the list.

And we get a fantastic discussion.

And this is no difference at all.

So things to stop buying to reduce clutter and to save money. It's a fun

roundtable. We have a lively discussion and I think it's a great way to end our greatest hits week.

We also, at the beginning of next month, are raising the price on our guides, our tax guide and our HR guide.
