2. Logan’s Income Breakdown

“That’s what hits your account on a monthly basis if you withdraw, which you should.”
—Caleb [07:01]
- Caleb presses Logan to actually withdraw the quarterly bonus (money he’s been leaving untouched with his employer).
3. How the Debt Started: The Jeep Compass Catastrophe
- Logan blames his mountain of debt on buying a used Jeep Compass for $21,000 at age 19, after consulting "finance YouTube" (Caleb and Graham Stephan).
- The car required $7,000+ in repairs (including a new engine), is still not fully paid off, and lost significant value.
- Caleb FaceTimes Graham Stephan for a live clarification; Graham denies any recommendation to buy a Jeep Compass.
“It was used. 60,000 miles. I got it in perfect condition... and then it’s been a nightmare.”
—Logan [08:39]
“I replaced the whole engine in it. It was a nightmare.”
—Logan [13:41]
- Caleb points out that extensive car issues are "bad luck" but that Logan’s story also reflects poor decision-making (buying a more expensive car than needed, over-repairing, etc.).
4. Lifestyle, Spending, and Simp Confessions
- Logan admits to blowing through around $120,000 earned between high school graduation and now, with only $10-15k in savings at one point.
- Large amounts were spent on lavish dates, girlfriends, travel, tech gadgets, booze, and covering expenses for others.
- He owns two vehicles: the cursed Jeep and an expensive new Ford Ranger ($33k+ loan).
“Women are my demise, bro. Latina baddies are my addiction.”
—Logan [19:03–19:13]
“I made more in my last job. Actually. Traveling, women, food, women.”
—Logan [19:47–19:53]
-
Spent $17,000 in two months—claims some was on travel and tech, not just "racks" (women).
-
He openly labels himself a “simp,” and Caleb roasts him for going into debt “to be a simp.”
“Going into debt to be a simp is a bit... it’s a little pathetic.”
—Caleb [20:15]
5. Relationships & Toxic Cycles
- Recurring toxic relationship patterns: Logan frequently spends far more than he can afford on girlfriends, who often move in quickly, contribute little financially, and sometimes act destructively (one keyed his car and poured water on his bed).
- Logan confesses he tends to crash and burn after breakups, both emotionally and financially.
- Recent ex-girlfriend exhibited problematic behavior (substance abuse, violent outbursts).
“She keyed your Jeep? ...Because I tipped $4 on a $21 bill and she said I was showing the chick bartender special treatment.”
—Caleb & Logan [34:14–34:28]
- Admits to being blocked by exes on social media and having poor family ties: “They’re just people I grew up with.”

Current Debt: ~$66,000 (Logan thought $64k; Caleb corrects him)
- Jeep Compass: ~$13,700 at 8% APR

“That one is probably gonna… that’s a rough one.”
—Logan on his highest credit card [49:51]
- He's using the snowball method but has made little visible progress so far; all cards essentially at minimum payments.
7. Spending Habits and Failed Budgets
- Repeated overdrafts: Checking account started at -$394; Logan admits to insufficient tracking and budgeting, frequent cash flow problems, and not maximizing his income for debt paydown.
- Food: Eats out constantly (Chipotle, Red Bull stops, fast food), spends over $1,000/month on dining even while struggling.
- Subscriptions: Pays for unnecessary streaming (Peacock, Crunchyroll), OnlyFans subscriptions (admitting to being “scammed”—no calculus nudes).
- “Crashing out” refers to spending sprees during periods of depression or after breakups.
“Red Bull, Chipotle, Red Bull, Chick Fil A...We could be paying down all our debt. By the way, you said, oh, I'm making snowball. There is no more than a minimum payment on any of these.”
—Caleb [83:18]
- His emergency fund is just $1,000 and was recently loaned to a friend in need.
8. Financial Planning, Solutions, and Prognosis
- Caleb maps out a strict budget, allowing $1,900/mo for San Antonio rent, $330 for insurance, $300 for groceries, and $250 for “fun.”
- Advises Logan to sell the Jeep after $500 in final repairs, cut his lifestyle, and not attempt entrepreneurship or quit side jobs until fully debt-free with an emergency fund.
- Suggests Logan is still susceptible to falling back into old patterns (“You will fall back in...I don’t believe you’re going to change your lifestyle for a better”).
“If you actually follow this budget... you’ll be debt free in a year and a quarter, year and a half.”
—Caleb [90:58]
- Stresses:
- Logan must stop treating financial advice like a buffet
- No more major gifts, no quitting side hustles
- Focus all extra cash on paying down debt
- Seek accountability, avoid relationship/“simp” relapse
- Only contribute to retirement up to employer match

Tone and Notable Themes
- Raw and irreverent: The episode is filled with explicit, self-deprecating humor, and frequent banter about dating, simping, and "Latina baddies."
- Financially tough love: Caleb uses a mix of jokes and blunt honesty to challenge Logan’s excuses and rationalizations.
- Generational reality: The discussion captures the struggles of a young adult with high earning potential but little discipline; plenty of money was wasted on fleeting pleasures, bad relationships, and impulsive purchases.
- Self-awareness, not self-control: Logan is unusually aware of his own pitfalls but lacks the demonstrated discipline to change.
In Summary
Logan arrives as the "pathetic simp drowning in debt," but despite the ceaseless jokes, he’s a cautionary tale of what can happen when high income meets poor boundaries, impulse spending, and unresolved emotional logic. Caleb’s blunt guidance lays out a realistic debt-free timeline—if Logan can avoid falling for the next Latina “baddie.”
Score: 2/10.
Prescription: Extreme budget discipline, purge the credit cards, no new relationships until financial stability, and focus income ruthlessly on debt—while resisting the gravitational pull of bad habits and simping.
