To save you from the last-minute scramble, I pulled together a list of 10 gifts that are actually worth giving. No more grabbing cheap candles and endcap leftovers, hoping it looks like you tried. Nothing says “I care” like grabbing whatever’s within arm’s reach. *Here are 10 of my favorite gift ideas for 2025* I’m including options at every price point, from super affordable to ultra luxurious. See if any of them feel right for the people in your life — or for yourself. I only recommend things that have genuinely been great for me. 10.

Nobody ever wants to floss — there’s never a good time, and nobody feels like doing it — but you have to. And once you see what’s still in your teeth after regular floss, you’ll understand exactly why you need this. 9.

One charger can power up to four devices fast, and the best part is you don’t need a single cord. Whatever you’re using, this will charge it quickly and you don’t have to dig for cables or realize you left one at home.

My kids and I loved getting to watch them and relive the magic all over again.” *Use promo code RAMIT to get $35 off the best-selling Carver Mat frames at* *Aura Frames* ( https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VW34_P2fhrX0Mq_tFNWfc30W4gSXWJ5GydS0N4gTlKl3qn9qW7lCdLW6lZ3pbW5HgXKx5yPnHHW2jtjw17dLhwBMTVTzQzh2-NW8p93qD7M3Q_tW5n3v_B28F0ysW8yMCVL8cBfS5W7Lc2LB8vcZrCW5zR7X24KjMC5W1tyWQ21m0d9LW1XJrFP4kczdZW5dFV551_w76PW4x87vh7WS6K9W4fjf1522GfMQTrNB787wqzPW4w9WrY19ztBbN8-WD-PKbl_pV2gDYK18462LW6SCDw27gfg7mW3Wt_2y8PD0qnW83tycF3T5TbfN4lcqvh9016kW8c4ykH3wtyHsW5Y16pn5HXDNnW6GSKhs8kN3y_f5Yjrv804 ) *.* ( https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VW34_P2fhrX0Mq_tFNWfc30W4gSXWJ5GydS0N4gTlKl3qn9qW7lCdLW6lZ3nCW2pxbS81HZYFXW4m9SRD7C92bXN5yDlyHLHS2dW1zGNmH6TkPtdW8LNvwh7sv_GxW2RqZK61PpRSDW7Lq5pR5jqVNVW67YCNn88gYzkW4JFLBt8g4pBzW7QNLJT8PfMY8W4tMct96SGBWsW7d0JPz5NkqCWW3Gdc8v12XG27W3S3CHv9lmr-JW562KlN4nVgtWW8Z7vjr5l-WprV9zlzS1M64zzW1WHJsd60c651W2rnycr2z-lzQW59mxKp35NZPKW5vCVWs3M7M9SW7pNkT93fFwnCW3qGb_Q34KltMW7vWLGg7_zwkVf70xXSz04 ) 7.

Displaying these jars instantly makes your kitchen look organized and intentional with clear glass, wood lids, and no clutter. 6.

I want to acknowledge that there is a strong cultural element at play here with the expectation of filial piety. But, there is your independent need to focus on yourself and your future family. I'm going to be direct with you. Your strategy here is to show them the path that they are on and where it is leading precisely. For example, you should be as direct as this. > > > > “Here is how much money you have today. Here is how much you are spending. > Here is how much you will have in 10 years and 20 years. Here is what that > lifestyle looks like. Finally, here is how much I can help you with.” > > When you are this direct, and you show people the exact path they are on, their reactions are quite startling. I do this on my podcast when couples will spend three hours pontificating about their philosophy about money and why they can't pay off their credit card debts. And finally, I will show them exactly how much money they will have to live on when they are 65 years old. Sometimes the number is $30,000 or $40,000 in retirement. At that moment, it suddenly sinks in for them. So much of this thinking — buying random cars and hoping for some money to fall down from heaven — lives in the shroud of unspoken expectations. This is especially true with the cultural aspect at play. As you know, I grew up Indian, and I understand Indian culture, while not the same as Korean culture, shares some of those unspoken expectations. In collectivist cultures, people will often not say exactly what they want , which allows them to later use that ambiguity when they say things like, “You never told me.” It is important for you to acknowledge and honor your own cultural upbringing, but to pave the way for your own chapter of life. So, how do you do it? Well, you can do it on your own. You can send them a note that says, > > > > “I need to have a candid conversation with you about money, and I need you > to be in a place where you can listen and make decisions. > > > > > > > > “Is Wednesday evening or Saturday morning better for you?” > > By sending this message ahead of time, you are giving them time to prepare. You are giving them expectations that decisions are going to be made in that conversation. My guess is if you present it to them like this, you're going to get evasion and deflection. You know, it could be as simple as “We're not available,” but of course, they won't offer another time — all the way to “Who do you think you are to set a schedule with us?” Ignore all of that. Ignore the drama that your parents will almost inevitably create and simply focus on your key to-dos. Or you can get an advisor. It could be a fee-only financial advisor, it could be a trusted third party. It's very likely that your parents will listen to someone from a position of authority rather than you. Do not get frustrated at this fact. This is simply the way it is. Just figure out the strategy to get what you need. In this conversation, you have two keys: * Establish that they are making decisions today. Not deciding is simply not an option. You will sit there for as long as it takes for them to make a decision. * They must make the decisions, not you. In many cultures, when there are uncomfortable decisions to be made, you will notice people often deflect. They'll often say, “I don't know. How could I know?” They turn into very innocent “How could I know? I never learned this stuff.” *Nope. It is their life, their money.* You will sit there as long as it takes, but they will make the decisions, not you. Lee, this is going to be one of the most challenging series of conversations you have, but it is so important, and I'm so glad you are having these conversations now. Please keep me updated. Let me know what you decide. To help you get started, Lee, I'm going to send you a free ticket to my Money for Aging Parents event ( https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VVy47W1ZxS2nW4x7tkK9kBVVNW5QKV2t5DZq72N67vcnP5nXHCW7lCGcx6lZ3p1W4BfW-83mN-kvN2m36cmqgx1qVDyC123Gb7y4W4WvZtD7YjK1vW1jV74j8DS6vtN8GHn1tKbHVrW3VrTCJ41W_DzW35_-lV1svNTGW4cslKC6_SG5xW7wpzZN1ycPBJV71JQc9ltWCFW4_Chw458ZM0GW2TbSRd25_T0pW1-bdJP1LknwVW7sfvWm8p1g8kW98r9tL4gnY9LW2XQv0Y16PW3qW3FVS4H4R9vKtN3s2PjhNt7YzW7lh2Vd2WXxzjVHQNRN3xjQXcN7tdV9lh8dFWW3QQcBY5M4rQ_W3-txvr7PyM0DW3k-cBd2tNZzJN5mPvxPK8mVJW2WMVMC3P73PmW7ghNvR1YmgNrVjvTs_3zMJ1cW6YCjHB66PzkHW8c08Nt3_kXWnW7SL9Fd9c6SwSVfsCVK6k3Y2yW8H3qNm1TdRS5W74mFx742DW4gW4YygSv1rK-DZW15pJcz8J8DL8W3ph6jt2qbvpXW7ZwPfx6qGkHwW7QqSPv13Z1DCf6MjV1T04 ).

Now for this week's question. > > > > Dear Ramit, > > > > > > > > I have about $40,000 of debt that my partner has no idea about. I’ve > gotten myself into a situation and I need your help. I stopped working > when my daughter was born, and debt started piling up. We talk about > buying a home and taking trips together but I’ve let this go on for too > long and feel guilty this will hold us back from doing those things. > > > > > > > > How do I tell him I’ve been hiding this debt? > > > > > > > > -Callie > > Hey Callie, It can feel incredibly scary to admit that you’ve been keeping a secret from your partner — especially when that secret is about money, and especially when that secret is *as large as $40,000 in debt*. But you still have to tell the truth. It’s important to understand why you got yourself into this situation — not just so you can explain it to your partner, but also so you can ensure you never, ever get into this position again. Many people who get into debt and keep it a secret *feel a deep sense of shame*. I’m almost willing to bet that’s the case for you. Maybe it happened small expense by small expense. Maybe there was a major, medical expense. Regardless of what happened, you have to be very honest with yourself about why , so that you can tell your partner. N ext, how you approach this conversation will determine a lot of what happens next. I encourage you to script it out and be extremely honest. You might say something like this: > > > > [Partner], I have something I need to talk about, and it makes me > incredibly nervous to bring up. > > > > > > > > Four years ago, when our daughter was born, you know I stopped working. > Since then, our debt has grown, and I haven’t been honest about it. As of > yesterday, our debt is $40,000. > > > > > > > > I need to tell you the truth. This is my fault. At first, I wasn’t paying > close attention to the situation. Over time, I became embarrassed, and I > let it go on for way too long. I’m ashamed, and I promise never to let > this happen again. > > > > > > > > Since realizing this, I’ve made a debt payoff plan ( > https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VWsX8G89d-hHW8TS4Jq5K_3bNW8tMMP_5DHpryN7PgQ303qn9qW95jsWP6lZ3nZW8JCfdg71P3JLW29Mhyp3LsgB3W4gxlvp8L_qwgW2dhRT-8-fZS9W1tmpN31P3VrrW1sfPmc2q3HWnW1t55W23Y4qp_W3L9_Gy3VS9RJW3pT0DP1hhT_CW7n2X-Z7QVfllV477nX4plflxW33WFVD8g9PsVW7_FjCr6Df8J9W1d2T2Q3nRs9YW6Bmzg51q0NnhW5bldpR3JGTd9W7ww7nV6XnQWHW5dKmWS4Sb5dNW8L9r8K75wkGqVn2j5b8qJ2k-W8c0gBf22pKPFW777Nf-8K9jm4W6c7RkP8v48NHW8MGY7w49rrldW5H8jkJ3xn6XpW5HbVXT2Dnpt_N2-h6X5ZkpVCW63RtDz77yC9PV3R0pN10f2gMN2GqH-qR2RxQf7XdBDz04 > ). I know it will take us 4.7 years to pay off this debt.

But there is a way to recover from it. It requires you to be unflinchingly honest and proactive in making a plan. All while taking responsibility and ensuring this never happens again. Good luck.

You asked, “What are the *best practices for money and a marriage* where one partner is temporarily out of work?” In many relationships, at one time or another, *one person is out of work*. This might be because of: * Giving birth * Childcare * Being a caretaker to an elderly parent * Being out of work involuntarily * Choosing not to work In all of those situations, the non-working partner *should still have access to the family finances*. The most common way for that to work is that money is pooled in a joint account, and each person, even the non-working partner, gets individual, no-questions-asked money every single month. I outline this system in my latest book: Money For Couples ( https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VWZ_0h6pwQRzW42mS_j5_wCJ5W7bJF9w5D6q7TN8Vtb8z3qn9qW95jsWP6lZ3nRW5xdwhY5T4dW6W4cTZm86rK0ZTW44l_V97VB_xSW1Qgmwp8dfg4XW3JVdVd3Hq0SNN6gQ5FClYxRzW13Jjg84R40_fW6My3rH5JRpdGW620l5x7NNGn4W5NK-WN3byJw1W2ThwKJ7Bt9-TW60TjNy5bG4cKW3RdbXP6j91-gW1BGzhx93zKgJW3VLthL3tXQt4W1SDklf520h-vW78320v2T49S0V3HSbM8sWPZLW23xhL17-2P_tW695FH_4JwWYNW7FFZqS5qFhZkW25k-Pr5cKx7BW4x906W7dBqvvW10P6h_7cqS_nW8CGcZY56JdZTW69LBh66_sKW0W3DX-123JXwT3W4j2mT-2yQD28W6xntbw6pXTZ6W7tWMGq5XML90f6nzldC04 ).

The way that you describe your husband's relationship with you and with the family finances is extremely troubling. If you spoke to a financial therapist, I am almost certain *they would describe it as financial abuse*. So, while I have shown you the way that other couples would handle joint money, I would strongly encourage you to think about what your future might look like. If this is the treatment you're receiving after being out of work for 2.5 months, that is an ominous sign of what is to come. I can't make any relationship decisions for you, but I wanted to address this so that you could see an outside opinion of how dangerous this situation is. If you need to be connected to resources, I'm going to direct you to a couple of them below. * National Domestic Violence Hotline - Financial abuse safety planning (

He’s the trustee and wants me and my brother to form an LLC to keep two rentals and split the income. I live out of state, have no interest in becoming a landlord, and have serious concerns about *my dad’s erratic, disrespectful behavior*. My partner has urged me to stay out. I asked to be bought out, but my dad said, “I have a lot of plans, *but giving you half a million bucks is not one of them*.” At 34 years old, I've never made much money. I earn $68K, have $1,600 in credit card debt, and $14K in a Roth IRA. *This inheritance would be life-changing for me*. I’m speaking with a lawyer, but here’s what I want to know: * How would you approach your investments? * What would you say to explain to my dad why I am not interested? * And what should I expect emotionally or financially that I might not see coming? -Claudia Claudia, No, you don't give up on two million dollars of inheritance. You build and you fight! *You build the skills to be able to manage your difficult dad*. Claudia, I'm sorry that your father is so problematic, but if you are inheriting an amount of money that will transform the trajectory of your financial life, I simply will not allow you to give up because it's going to be hard to deal with him. *Sometimes, life is hard*. We don't wish for it to be easier. We wish to build the skills to be able to deal with what comes our way. And, candidly, a two-million-dollar inheritance is worth building skills for. The way that you do this is, yes, speak to a lawyer first. Next, you can also do a lot of research on your own. You can look at the inheritance subreddit, and you can certainly search online for stories about people who inherited properties and had to manage it with problematic family members. *This is why people treating housing as "generational wealth" drives me crazy*. When somebody passes a house to their three children, what if one person can't afford the upkeep? What if another wants to sell and a third wants to keep it? How do you manage it? Most parents never think about this. They literally only think “house = generational wealth.” But look at this: ( https://d586LZ04.na1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/W5+113/d586LZ04/VVFqC32trkmSW57rkny31NMsqVSnzBh5Czrp7N3Gk38P3qn9qW8wLKSR6lZ3n1W62ZKVt3fH-jxW6FN2z17f4j6GW99qfVf4KbGxSN44Rpcp-pn0tW43mw_q4qgb-0W5rglqM8lhJ58N3Ls7v-S8HncW1nWK4q8jKVN5N5MRwSQw3p38W4m7x8q7TxFGgW97CkgJ1xZfBMW2NbmHm6LGNVcW8J2PrH68R2zKW7rbf272WVnr1W2ks7z94FhhdWVCmfR32VbqPKW2bxj622RmXkKW4Zd5P18w2dnXW4n7Tfj1V3BNJW532NnM6cgnZbW1K9Tt88Hn7vxW72fCxX6dlyWlW5ltDlz7fGJ32W79VygQ68Hp0ZW6NgLCx1fY4nkW37ddWM6G6slDW8mKr5R4npDS-W6b4ZBp5XNxftf841w-H04 ) The vast majority of people would rather have a *la rge stock portfolio* than an illiquid, likely deteriorating *house* in a possibly unpopular area that has to be split across multiple people. *It's likely you're going to end up liquidating*. It's also likely that you will have to end up taking legal action against your dad. Your lawyer can advise you whether or not to enter an LLC and how to structure it appropriately. My suggestion: Buckle up. This is a large amount of money, your grandmother wanted you to have it, and therefore you will level up so that you can appropriately manage it. *This will also require some serious emotional practice*. It's never easy to deal with problematic business partners. It's even harder when that person is a parent. You may want to enlist the help of a therapist to be able to work through this problem. *Spending money on a therapist and a lawyer, in my opinion, is absolutely the right thing to do*. Now your question was: how would I approach my investments? Let's deal with your investments down the road. *First, I want you to mentally accept that this is worth fighting for.* Second, I want you to start getting your team together: your lawyer, your therapist. And you want to create a plan of action. That plan of action likely involves communicating about this in writing — not over the phone, probably not over text — as much as possible, so that you have records of it and you can be crystal clear. You already know reasonably certainly that this is not going to end well. So your job is to stay as emotionally cool as possible and get to the outcome that you want. Treat this like a business decision, because it is one of the most serious ones you will ever encounter. P.S. You know I love calling out the phantom costs of owning a home. But I’m curious: what’s your setup right now? Do you own a home…or are you renting and being told you’re ‘throwing money away’? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- * I own a home (

My brother passed away in 2023 at the age of 40 after a *short but brutal struggle with severe mental illness*. As a result, I became the beneficiary of a modest Roth IRA and life insurance policy — the only two assets not left to his wife. *I’ve hated that money since it touched my hands*. I gifted as much as I legally could to my sister-in-law and nieces, but she urged me to keep the rest. With what remained, I maxed out my Roth IRA, invested in an ETF, and left the rest in a HYSA. Ironically, as the sole beneficiary of my parents’ and two extended family members’, I’m probably better set up than most. When I told my therapist how sick this money makes me feel, she asked, “Wouldn’t your brother want you to have something nice?” She’s right. But *the idea that* *my life might be easier because my brother died is almost impossible to accept* *. * Your ideas about guilt-free spending and the Conscious Spending Plan have helped me in daily life. But in this case, I’m really struggling. *How do I deal with this money that makes me feel sick to spend? * -Angela Angela, what a beautiful and sad email. I'm sorry for your loss. I wanted to answer this question because at some point, every one of us will lose a loved one. And it can feel so lonely trying to navigate through loss on our own, especially when there are conflicting feelings around money. *Angela, you don't have to do anything with the money right now. * If you don't feel absolutely confident about how to use that money, then I encourage you to simply put it in a separate savings account and let it sit there for the time being. In the meantime, I would encourage you to spend time continuing to work through your feelings about this money. There is no rush. By the time you decide what you want to do with the money, I want you to feel confident. I want you to feel good about it. Now from your question, I know that the real challenge here is not a lack of ideas, but rather *how to deal with the loss of your brother and the connection with that money*. If you spend it, does it mean you're losing the connection to your brother? Are you benefiting from his death? As somebody who is a third party, my answer is of course not. But for you in this situation to see this with clarity — and to really feel it — will take healing and above all, time. If and when you decide to spend that money, all I encourage you to do is to infuse that money with meaning. *What is meaningful to you, Angela?* What would honor the memory of your brother? And what would honor you? It could be as luxurious as a beautiful piece of clothing. It could be as adventurous as a family trip. As utilitarian as a coffee maker. Or as generous as a large donation to a public library or charity. That's up to you, but to get there and to feel really good will take time. I'm so glad that you are discussing this with a therapist. I encourage you to continue that. Again, I am sorry for your loss, and I thank you for writing. P.S. Have a money question you'd like me to answer? Send an email to ramit. sethi@ iwillteachyoutoberich. com ( ramit.sethi@iwillteachyoutoberich.com?subject=Dear%20Ramit ). I'll answer the best questions.
