Episode Overview

This episode tackles the debate around personal finance advice that fixates on cutting small expenses (like your daily lunch or coffee), versus focusing on earning more and building better spending habits. Travis and Eric blend humor, pop culture banter, and real-world money realities to offer a balanced (and entertaining) look at what it actually takes to get ahead financially in today’s world—where inflation and high costs have made old-school advice less practical. The episode emphasizes the importance of both spending wisely and raising your income, rather than frugality to the point of sacrificing quality of life.

    "What does as you wish mean, Travis?" – Eric (01:00)
    "I don't know." – Travis (01:00)
  • Eric explains iconic lines, showing their camaraderie.

2. What Is “Above Average” Net Worth? (02:14–04:55)

• The duo listens to a viral clip running through Federal Reserve data on median net worth by age bracket and percentile.
• Key stats discussed:
  • Under 25: median net worth ≈ $11,500
  • Ages 25–29: median ≈ $35,600; 75th percentile ≈ $147,600
  • Ages 30–55: median jumps from $100,000 to $411,000
  • Above average requires 2.5–3x median net worth

Perspectives on Percentiles

• Eric and Travis attempt to demystify percentile rankings, swapping jokes on how pediatricians deliver those stats.
  • Notable quote:
    “Percentiles are so confusing to me... if they're in the 90th percentile, that means that they're freakishly large...” – Travis (03:53)

---

3. Discussion: Can You Save Your Way to Wealth? (04:55–07:52)

• The hosts note that compounding is powerful, but question whether skimping on daily life really builds wealth.
• Reflection on millennial/Gen Z struggles:
  • Houses are less accessible, food is more expensive, and expectations about young adult finances have shifted.
  • The viral video points out that people who get ahead typically start investing early and live below their means.
• Eric and Travis critique simplistic advice:
  • “It seems like such a small number, but compounding just makes a huge difference if you start young.” – Travis (06:19)

---

4. The $28 Lunch Debate: Old-School Advice vs. New Reality (07:52–14:35)

• Introduces a parody clip mocking financial pundits’ “skip coffee/lunch to get ahead” advice.
  • Mr. Wonderful (parody): “Why don't you just pour your money into a bowl and light it on fire instead? That’ll be $40.”
• The hosts take apart this advice with both humor and logic:
  • Eric: “People making $70,000 a year aren't not getting ahead because they're spending $28 on lunch. It's because everything else is so goddamn expensive...” (09:57)
  • Travis: “It's not necessarily the $28 lunch that's killing you. It's doing that every day.” (13:09)
  • They agree that regular overspending—not occasional treats—is a problem.

Spending Habits vs. Earning Power

• Travis reiterates the show’s core message: Focus on raising income and building financial momentum, not deprivation.
  • “The core premise of this show is to focus on the income part so that you can spend $30 at lunch and not have to think about it because you’re still also contributing a thousand or two a month to investments or retirement.” (16:12)
• Both hosts note that costs are up, and you can’t “save your way into wealth” anymore—you have to go after higher earnings.

---

5. Compounding and Tiny Habit Changes (15:07–17:53)

• Nuance matters: Skipping a few expensive meals can help if the savings are invested and habits change.
  • “If you skip 10 lunches and put that money somewhere, that could be an interesting strategy.” – Eric (17:03)
  • Travis calculates: “10 lunches = $300 a month = $3,600 a year... do that for 10 years, that’s a lot of compounding.” (17:25)
• They stress that it's about aligning spending with values—not punishing yourself for enjoying life in moderation.

---

6. Food Choices, Health, and Cost Hacks (17:53–22:03)

• Playful tangent: Rotisserie chickens vs. expensive lunches.
  • Eric: “If I bought a rotisserie chicken every day... like 200 bucks a month.” (19:49)
  • Travis: “It’s a pretty good hack for five bucks.” (20:25)
• Reminisce about affordable meals (ramen & grilled cheese) and acceptance of lean times as a young adult.
  • “It never was important to me to eat that type of food all the time. I just ate what I could afford...” – Travis (20:49)

---

Notable Quotes & Moments

• “Millennials can’t afford houses because they’re eating all this damn avocado toast... that’s probably not it.” – Eric (12:42)
• “Your spending habits are probably bad if you feel like you deserve to go eat a $30 lunch... but then you’re whining about how you don’t have any money.” – Travis (15:09)
• “It’s never a one-size-fits-all thing.” – Travis (16:56)
• “There’s nuance here.” – Eric (11:17)

Episode Takeaways

• Spending less helps, but earning more is essential: Build your skills, increase your value, and make enough that you can enjoy small luxuries without guilt. Don’t rely on deprivation alone.
• Habits matter, not individual purchases: It’s repeated, unexamined spending (not the occasional $30 lunch) that derails finances.
• Start investing young, let compounding work for you: The earlier you put money away, the more time it has to grow.
• Context is key: Life is pricey now—not all old-school advice scales to current realities.
• Enjoy life, within reason: Frugality without intention robs you of experiences, while intentional spending helps you thrive today and tomorrow.

---

Final Thought (Travis, 22:25):
“Money only solves your money problems, but it’s easier to solve the rest of your problems with money in the bank. So stop spending $30 on lunch and put it in the bank instead—but that’s it for this episode. Thanks for tuning in!”

What's going on, everybody? Welcome back to the Travis Makes Money podcast, where it's our mission to help you make some more money on the septic show. Oh, look, a little money thingy. Thank you for that. My producer Eric is in studio. If you can't tell, hey, call me

[Eric]

Eric Cash, because we're going to bring some value today.

[Travis]

Well said.

[Eric]

Hey, yeah, so I have a topic today. This is another clip you sent me, and then you said we should talk about this on the show, so. As you wish. And what does as you wish mean, Travis?

[Travis]

I don't know.

[Eric]

It means I love you. What the hell? Have you ever seen Princess Bride?

[Travis]

Yeah, but a long time ago. I don't remember any quotes from the Princess Bride.

[Eric]

When he. What?

[Travis]

None, Zero, Zilch, Nada? What that may.

[Eric]

He says. Because he says a. I don't remember

[Travis]

that part for sure.

[Eric]

When Wesley would say as you wish, what he was actually saying is, I love you. No, he gets pushed down the hill and he goes, as you wish. And then.

[Travis]

I haven't watched that movie in probably 20 years.

[Eric]

And then they do the part where they're on the boat, and he goes, no more rhyming. I mean it. And then he says, anybody want a peanut? And it rhymes.

[Travis]

Oh, no.

[Eric]

You don't know. Inconceivable.

[Travis]

Okay, yeah, I know that one. Yeah, I know that one.

[Eric]

And when he says, you, you only thought the cup was poisoned.

[Travis]

I do remember that part, actually.

[Eric]

Yeah, you remember that.

[Travis]

Remember the part where he, like, slowly poisons himself so he can have a higher tone?

[Eric]

My name is Inigo. Montreal.

[Travis]

Both of them were poisoned.

[Eric]

You killed my father. Prepare to die.

[Travis]

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, I remember.

[Eric]

Do you remember that?

[Travis]

I remember a couple of the famous ones.

[Promo Announcer]

Marriage.

[Travis]

Nope.

[Eric]

With the priest.

[Travis]

Nope. That's it.

[Eric]

All right. Okay. Well, anyway. That's crazy. That's a great movie.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Travis]

Just don't have.

[Eric]

It's a great movie. You should watch it again. All right, here we go. How much money above average people have, Travis?

[Travis]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Okay.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Yeah.

[Eric]

This Is a good one. Okay, good. Great. Okay.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

This is how much money you should have for every age. According to the Federal Reserve, the household median net worth for someone under the age of 25 is around $11,500. And for someone between the ages of 25 to 29, it's $35,600 and so on.

[Eric]

That seems so low to me. 25 and 29 for household income, 35,600 net worth. Oh, no. Okay, never mind. Never mind. Yeah, yeah, never mind.

[Travis]

So net worth.

[Eric]

But I mean, that still seems low.

[Travis]

It's still crazy. But also probably goes into the idea of, like, housing is crazy unavailable these days because that's. That used to be, like, the time where people buy their first house, they start building a little bit of equity. No, no longer.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

Here's what the above average looks like. You can see that if you're in the 75th percentile, that means you're ahead of three out of four people your age.

[Eric]

Percentiles are so confusing to me.

[Ad Voice]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Because when, you know when your kids go to the pediatrician and they're like, they're in the 90th percentile and you're like, oh, is that okay?

[Travis]

Yeah, because.

[Eric]

Because wait, 90th means they're 10%. That's weird. Yeah, because I was like.

[Travis]

It's an odd way to phrase, but what is that?

[Eric]

Can you explain to me since we're on the show, you're educating people. How does that make sense? Because, like, I. Because they would say, like, in height, she was always like, 99th percent. Like, she was super tall.

[Travis]

Yeah.

[Eric]

And I was always like. But that sounds like you're saying she's like 99% of people are this size.

[Travis]

Yeah, it does sound.

[Eric]

But why do they say that? Explain percentiles.

[Travis]

I don't. I don't really know exactly what the verbiage is, but that's. What I know is that if they're in the. If they're in the 90th percentile, that means that they're freakishly large. 10% of the country in that thing. If they're in the 50th percentile, then it's like they're 50. 50. If they're. You know what I mean? If they're in the 20th percentile, then 80% of kids taller than. Than they are.

[Announcer]

So.

[Travis]

Yeah, it's just like it sounds. It sounds backwards.

[Eric]

Yes.

[Travis]

Yeah.

[Eric]

It sounds like she's been top 1% is what I always. I was always like, oh, she's short.

[Mr. Wonderful]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Yeah, she's she's not growing. And they were like, no, no.

[Travis]

She's actually really tall, you know.

[Eric]

Anyway, I. I get. When it comes to the penile, I'm in the 99th percentile. I don't know.

[Travis]

Good one.

[Eric]

All right, let's keep watching.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

So for the bracket of 25 to 29, for example, to be considered above average, you need to have $147,600 in household net worth. So across the board, that means you need roughly 2.5 to 3 times the amount that the average person has to be considered above average. Now, you don't need to earn more money to get there. Usually people.

[Eric]

I hate these little mics. I hate these DJI Osmo. And I hate how it looks.

[Announcer]

Really.

[Eric]

I hate how they look on people's shirt. I think it's so stupid looking. It's the worst.

[Travis]

I just prefer to hold it because it just looks like a little.

[Eric]

Yeah, that's better. I hate, I hate, like the little puffy and all that and the clips.

[Travis]

Well, my question is, like, why don't you just have a lav.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Eric]

That are smaller and look nicer and you can roll it up. Yeah, that's what I do. Yeah, I need to do it.

[Travis]

And a lot of them come with lab attachments.

[Eric]

Yeah, it's. It's just. I hate it. It's like when people hold lavs. That bothers me.

[Travis]

Holding a lab is. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Eric]

Look. So you got a clip on it, bro. All right, let's keep watching. Sorry.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

Humphrey percentile. They just ended up investing early. They stayed consistent and they lived well below their means. That is illustrated between the ages of 30 to 55. So you can see that the median person goes from $100,000 to $411,000. That's roughly four times their net worth in 25 years. But the above average person, they go from $210,000 to 1.186 times the gap that you can make.

[Eric]

That's crazy.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

20s and 30s is going to be the one that actually compounds for the rest of your life. And I will have a separate video

[Eric]

that's like 100x starting a little bit later.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

So say you're starting from 0, 100, 150. As always, let me know in the comments what you think. I'm a number net worth. And if you're already thinking about this

[Eric]

stuff, the only context where he's like, let me know your age in the comments. And it's not creepy. Okay.

[Travis]

That's what's interesting to me though, about that Is that if you just get started younger, the compounding makes it to where it's like, it seems like such a small number, which is like that video sent you the other day about the Kevin o' Leary thing. Talking about on iced Coffee hours.

[Eric]

I saw that come in and I didn't watch it.

[Travis]

Yeah, he basically said, did you text it to me?

[Eric]

I don't remember if I Instagram, but

[Travis]

he basically said it's he for like a kid making $60,000 a year but spending 28 on lunch. That. He said that that's just a dumb move.

[Eric]

I do. I do. Hold on. I want to watch the video because I feel like I. I get annoyed with those takes.

[Travis]

But this was.

[Eric]

But I agree.

[Travis]

This was take. The one I sent you was from Gino.

[Eric]

Yeah. Okay, let's watch it.

[Travis]

Yeah. Who had a comment about that. And he agreed with you, saying that, like, this is a stupid take. Like, that's just what lunch cost.

[Eric]

Wait, so wait, hold on. So I just want to be clear with what you just did. So you're saying you. You just said you sound like Yokuru. Gino's take. And your message to me said, this is.

[Sponsor Voice]

Do you hear that? Sounds like breakfast is ready. Because Quaker's coming in hot with morning nutrition. 100% whole grain oats and a good source of fiber to f fuel the rhythm of your morning and kickstart your day. And that sounds absolutely delicious. Fuel to start whatever's next. Quaker, official sponsor of FIFA World Cup 26.

[Promo Announcer]

You have one new message translating Disney and Pixar's Hoppers is now available on Disney.

[Travis]

You could say that again.

[Promo Announcer]

Critics are calling it Pixar's funniest movie ever. And a wildly entertaining ride. Lizard Potato. It's certified fresh and verified hot.

[Travis]

Now we party.

[Eric]

This is incredible.

[Promo Announcer]

Wow.

[Travis]

I am clearing the rest of the day.

[Promo Announcer]

Disney and Pixar's Hoppers now available on Disney plus, rated pg.

[Eric]

Geno's dumbest take so far. So in a roundabout way, I'm calling you dumb. You're saying I'm a big dumb, stupid guy.

[Travis]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Let's watch it.

[Travis]

Disagreed with the take.

[Announcer]

That's all.

[Eric]

Let's see. Let's watch.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

Okay.

[Travis]

I like most of his takes.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Kids that are making 70 grand a year spending $28 for lunch, I mean, that's just stupid. It's just. Think about that in the context of that being put into an index and making 8 to 10. 8 to 10% a year for the next 50 years.

[Travis]

Interesting.

[Mr. Wonderful]

Hey, Mr. Wonderful, why don't you shut the ever loving wonderfuck up. I'm sorry, I can't do this in the cardi's. Guys, it's time for a pit viper mega rant.

[Eric]

Pit viper.

[Mr. Wonderful]

Do you know why kids are spending $28 on lunch? Ke? Because lunch costs $28. Now I'm sure right before the Uber driver on his lunch break bought a Subway footlong and a bag of kettle chips for 25 bucks, he's thinking, God, what if I put this lunch money in an index fund so in 50 years when I'm 87 years old, I can have $50,000 saved up, which after inflation will be worth about $10,000 today. Or 40 Trump bills. People making $70,000 a year aren't not getting ahead because they're spending $28 on lunch. It's because everything else is so goddamn expensive, including but not limited to the price of food. Have you thought about just not eating? Fatty. You indulgent fatty. Fatso, why are you eating lunch at all? Grab a Quest protein bar, drink a tall glass of water and get back to the workshop. These toys aren't going to make themselves. Get to tinkering. God forbid you get food delivered.

[Eric]

Oh, what'd you order?

[Mr. Wonderful]

A teriyaki chicken bowl from Goop Chicken. Why don't you just pour your money into a bowl and light it on fire instead? That'll be $40. Just stop eating. Every time you put food in your mouth, you're lighting $28 on fire. You can't leave the house without spending $28 anymore. Even when I'm not leaving the house, I get a notification from Apple that they're taking $28 out of my account

[Eric]

for some app that does drive me crazy. And you don't know what some of

[Travis]

these are necessary if you can.

[Mr. Wonderful]

If you can starve yourself for 10$28 lunches a month, that's $280 a month. That's one Trump$250 bill. And if you stack that up over a year now, you've got generational starvation. The money you're saving in index funds is now indexing in your stomach. And your appetite for passive income will actually feed and nourish you. The elite upper class wants you to eat Snickers bars during your 10 hour shift at the data center. And quit your bitching. Eating good food is for poor people who want to stay poor forever. You know what I had for lunch today? $28 in Vanguard.

[Promo Announcer]

Oh, what?

[Eric]

I'm going to.

[Mr. Wonderful]

I'm going to go to A cafe and spend $8 on a latte. Why do that when I can put that in an index fund and grow that $8 at 10% over 50 years, that's 80 cents.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Can't stand it when I see kids.

[Eric]

So I. Okay, okay, wait, hold on.

[Travis]

There's nuance here.

[Eric]

Of course, now there's nuance, but the.

[Travis]

No, it's silly.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

It's.

[Travis]

It like. That's clearly not exactly. What he's saying, though, is. My thing is, like, you can take and assign some additional.

[Eric]

The thing is, Mr. Wonderful is such a hateable person.

[Sponsor Voice]

Exactly.

[Eric]

And I think, of course, he leans himself in Marty supreme in many ways, but. Okay, I agree with Kevin in all areas.

[Announcer]

That's it.

[Eric]

I agree with Kevin. What I took it as when I watched it. Okay. To me, okay, here's what I'll say. This is what. Clips like this annoy me. It's the same thing. I was just talking with somebody about this the other day. One of the most annoying things ever is when there's like a, you know, Francis Ford Coppola is being interviewed, you know, or some director that blew up in, like, the seventies. Yeah. And they. It's such a running meme now at, like, Q and A's, where they're like, what's your advice to young filmmakers? And they go, there's this little device in your pocket. It's a camera make. If we had access to that, we would make movies on that, and we would, you know, go out there and just make a movie.

[Travis]

You got a little.

[Eric]

Everybody in here has got a cinema camera in their pocket, you know, and it's like, yeah, but also, that doesn't really, like. Because there's so much of that. How do you break through the noise and how do you get distribution and all this sort of stuff?

[Travis]

And it's like, oversimplification.

[Eric]

Yes. And I think it's the same thing where it's like, millennials can't afford houses because they're eating all this damn avocado toast. And it's like, well, that's probably not it. So if I'm taking a generous read of Mr. Wonderful, which I hate to do, but I'm going to do it, I would say he's saying, quit having these lavish, expensive meals all the time and then complaining you're not getting ahead. Which I agree with. With what Gino's saying. I also agree with the fact that things are just more expensive. So, like. Exactly.

[Travis]

That's my thing, is two things can be true. And my, like, my broader take on it is more like it's not necessarily the 128 lunch that's killing.

[Eric]

It's doing that every day.

[Travis]

It's the habit of continuously thinking that because you have a job that entitles you to be able to afford all the luxuries that we now have available because we have so many luxuries now that we just didn't used to have. But it's like throughout human history, people have bought food or grown food and made it at their house. Like, and I'm not suggesting you have to grow your own garden to be able to save money, but like, it's still hella cheaper to buy groceries and make your lunch. Like, and, and if you're going to be like, oh, Well, I work 10 hour days, I don't want to make my lunch, like, okay, that's fine, but you're just not going to have any money left. It's just, you have, it's a recognition of both of those things that. Yes, it like literally the other day Jackie came home and she bought a burrito from I think like Cafe Rio or something and then bought three or four donuts. Four donuts for like, obviously one for each of us. And the donuts were like $25 for four donuts. Which blows my mind because donuts used to be like 4 cents, you know what I mean? Like, they were the cheapest item that you could possibly buy. And then the burrito was like $22, like for four donuts and a burrito, it was almost 50 bucks. And she went and picked them up and it's like, prices are great. They're astronomical.

[Eric]

And the cost, the cost that that's gonna put on you guys in the way that's gonna affect your health. That's what I'm worried about.

[Travis]

Thank you.

[Eric]

I wouldn't, I haven't eaten a donut in years.

[Travis]

Really?

[Eric]

I haven't probably. I haven't eaten a donut this year.

[Travis]

Really? Yeah, I've had a couple.

[Eric]

Yeah. But anyway, I get what you're saying.

[Travis]

It's more about spending habits. Like if you are somebody who is constantly spending $28 on lunch, you're probably also the same type of person who's getting the Nikes instead. Or you're, you're buying the, these sunny

[Eric]

Adidas Crocs instead of the regular Crocs.

[Ad Voice]

Yeah.

[Travis]

It's just you're. The, the habits that you are putting into your life are probably of somebody who's overspending on everything and then wondering why they're not getting Ahead. And the point that we talked about the very beginning of this, which is that the younger that you start putting money away, the more compounding works for you. So it's not necessarily about like skipping lunch or, or eating a PB&J every day that you pack before you go to the office. It's more just like say no a couple of times a week and then put that money into something to allow you to experience the momentum that you can create for yourself at that young of an age with just a little bit of money. So it's just, it's more to me just speaking about your spending habits are probably bad. If you feel like you deserve to go eat a $30 lunch because you can technically afford it, but then you're whining about how you don't have any money in the like, it's like, well, again, two things can be true. You can recognize the pricing is insane while also just choosing to eat at home or choosing to pack a lunch. Yeah, it's just still significantly cheaper to do that. So it's more. It's not like that was just a micro example of what the spending habits of somebody that he's talking about look like, which will affect your ability to build long term wealth for sure. But obviously. Sorry to cut you off, but obviously the core premise of this show is to focus on the income part so that you can spend 30 bucks at lunch and not have to think about it because you're still also contributing a thousand or two thousand bucks a month to your investment account or your retirement fund or something like that. And then you can spend the 30 bucks without having to think about it because you've learned how to increase your skill set and be more valuable to the marketplace or to your job and you figured out how to make more money. So it's like, I agree with both takes, but in different scenarios for different people. And to me, always, it's never a one size fits all things.

[Eric]

I think what I was going to say before being rudely interrupted was Gino kind of made a good argument for Mr. Wonderful in the middle of that where he said, if you skip 10 lunches and put that. And I was like, yeah, if you skip 10 lunches and you just fast those lunches and put that money somewhere, that could be an interesting strategy.

[Travis]

Like 10 lunches, 300amonth, which is $3,600 a year, which if you do that for 10 years, that's a lot of compound. When you started doing that when you're 20 years old, what that's going to be when you're 65 is is is ridiculous. Like when you start factoring in and looking at the cost of items in terms of what it's going to cost you in the future, then it might make sense to skip a couple of those lunches. And frankly, most of America is eating too much anyway, so it might not be a terrible thing for your health to skip one.

[Eric]

Well, listen, I'm not gonna let you be fat phobic and crap on the lower income earners of this country. Travis well, it's not the lower income. That's like I should we should only respond to each other like we're in a May mayorola mayor mayoral debate Mayoral debate. Yeah. You know what's dumb? Why is mayor debates mayoral debates. President is presidential and then governor is Goober. Was it gubernatorial?

[Travis]

[Eric]

Yeah. The goober. Is it goober. Goober. Yeah. Gubernatorial.

I'll tell you this, there's quite a few goobers in these goobernatorial debates. You sure live up to the office there, pal. Why don't they just call it a governor's debate?

[Travis]

I don't know.

[Eric]

The debate of governors. Gubernatorial. Gubernatorial.

[Travis]

That's a wild.

[Eric]

Can't believe you didn't know that.

[Travis]

I did not know that.

[Eric]

We learned on this show. Anyway, I thought it was interesting skipping a few meals. There was one more thing I was going to say, but I don't remember. Do you have anything really good stuff. I had something about it, but the main thing I was going to say is he kind of argued that point in a way. Oh, I was going to say with food. Food and health. I did realize I was like if I bought a rotisserie chicken every day.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Like 200 bucks a month.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Eric]

And I could get what I need.

[Travis]

It's $5. Get a little Broccoli for, like, it's. I actually looked it up recently. The Costco chicken. Yeah. Rotisserie chicken.

[Eric]

Is that good?

[Travis]

What do you mean?

[Eric]

They're rotisserie. Is it as good as people? Because there's, like, lines for the rotisserie chicken. I've never eaten rotisserie chicken.

[Announcer]

Yeah.

[Eric]

Is it better than a typical rotisserie chicken?

[Travis]

Honestly, I have not eaten the chicken off of the actual. Because Jackie basically buys them, and then she makes this really cool, delicious chicken salad out of it.

[Eric]

Oh, okay. So you've never had. Just strips all the chicken off our chicken. Never makes it. We put on the counter, and we start ripping it shreds with our bare hands.

[Travis]

Yeah. I mean, it.

[Narrator or Clip Voice]

It's hard. Not.

[Travis]

It's a pretty good hack for five bucks. It's like. It's. I think I want to say it

[Eric]

was like Whole Foods, $2 off every

[Travis]

Tuesday calories and like, 200. It was like, this is like a. If you just ate a rotisserie chicken a day.

[Eric]

Well, I. I can't, but I. But I. But I do, like, for certain days, I've done that. It's like, I just eat that in hot sauce, and, like, I eat it till I can't eat it anymore.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Right.

[Eric]

And I don't have to worry about anything.

[Travis]

I just. I don't know.

[Eric]

So get rich.

[Travis]

As a young person, I just, like. It never was important to me to eat that type of food all the time. I just ate what I could afford, and it never, like, I never looked at it as, like, oh, like, how terrible of a situation I'm in that I could only eat ramen or a grilled cheese or whatever.

[Eric]

I just, like, don't just miss when you could eat ramen and grilled cheese every day.

[Travis]

Dude, honestly, that's a fire meal. We still do that, like, probably twice a month. Because I make some pretty good grilled cheese.

[Eric]

We've been just ordering such healthy food lately, and it's like, that is expensive. And I'm like, wintertime, we just eat macaroni and grilled cheese.

[Travis]

Cold outside, grilled cheese and some. Some. What's that? What's that? One company Hot and ready, I think.

[Eric]

No, no, no. Little season.

[Travis]

Just a grilled cheese and a pizza.

[Eric]

Dude, that sounds good.

[Travis]

No, they're. They're. It's like hot and hot and something hot and spicy or something.

[Eric]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Those big tubs. Yeah.

[Travis]

Bowls of ramen that you get.

[Eric]

What's good here? $1.29 Migusta tacos in Vegas has. Has a birria ramen, where they put it in the tapatio ramen container. That's so good.

[Guest or Additional Speaker]

Good.

[Travis]

That has to be good.

[Eric]

And it's got a lot of sodium in it. But that's. That's probably my favorite Mexican place in Vegas.

[Travis]

Anything biria like, I'm sold. Yeah, yeah, it's fine.

[Eric]

Tara makes really good beer. Yeah. Does she? Y. Well, he cooks, like, all day.
