Hello, Winebers, my name is Jesse Meekham and this is podcast number 425 for

Wineb, where we teach you four rules to help you stop living paycheck to paycheck, get out of debt and save more money.

We talked last week about watching Rule Zero morph before your very eyes, watching, kind of learning from this crazy time.

And I'll admit, I'm trying to find silver linings. So here we are.

Trying to find those silver linings. So I've made a list. I've called it learning from COVID-19

And I really just don't want to lose what I've learned as I've seen rule zero morph in front of me

how I've seen my life priorities become very very crystal clear.

It's been fascinating to not have to compete with kids activities, kids friends, school to a degree.

Calendar stuff is just wiped clear.

It's like going on vacation but staying at home, but also things are

super scary so it's not really like vacation. But there's still been some learning

to be had. One thing that I've learned is, well I'll talk about this actually for next

week's podcast, but it's just kind of about being a little more ready for something again.

We'll talk about that next week. Okay, silver linings. I've learned that I can spend a good

good chunk of time with my kids and I actually start to like them more and more.

I thought they would start to drive me crazy,

but it's the opposite.

Maybe I'm just getting used to their craziness.

I've also learned that my kids can handle boredom just fine.

And actually, they're pretty darncreative more than I originally thought as it comes to entertaining themselves.

I've found that a movie every night is just what the doctor ordered. And I've also found that the instant pot still delivers

if I want to make delicious meals
