Something You Should Know
Why Couples Hate to Talk About Money & How Scents and Smells Affect You
13 Jan 2025
In the online shopping world, there is something called “cart abandonment discounts.” Listen as I explain what they are and how you can save money on some of the items you want to buy as long as you are not in a huge hurry to buy them. https://thekrazycouponlady.com/tips/store-hacks/amazon-cart-abandonment-discounts Money is often a difficult subject for couples to discuss. One of the big reasons is that those discussions often turn into fights. But what if you could turn those discussions into fun and enjoyable talks that resulted in a shared vision of a rich life together? And what if the fights over money stopped completely? Wouldn’t that be great? It can happen if you listen to my guest Rahmit Sethi. For several years he has been helping people look at their money differently. He had a huge bestselling book a few years ago called I Will Teach You To Be Rich (https://amzn.to/4h47FIm) and his latest book is called Money for Couples (https://amzn.to/4j3daJo). There are so many ways your sense of smell works to your benefit. For one thing, you are attracted to another person (or turned off by them) often because of how they smell, even if you are not conscious of it. Your sense of smell works in some interesting and mysterious ways. And here to explain the science behind all of it is Jonas Olofsson. He is a professor of psychology at Stockholm University, where he directs the Sensory Cognitive Interaction Lab and he is author of the book, The Forgotten Sense: The New Science of Smell – and the Extraordinary Power of the Nose (https://amzn.to/3DSgNS8). Your bedroom is probably dark when you go to bed – at least mostly dark. But is it completely dark? If it’s not, there is something you need to understand, and we learned about it from hamsters. https://sciencemadefun.net/blog/this-color-night-light-is-best-for-sleep-the-color-will-surprise-you/ Learn more about your ad choices.

We're so done with new year, new you. This year, it's more you on Bumble. More of you shamelessly sending playlists, especially that one filled with show tunes. More of you finding Geminis because you know you always like them. More of you dating with intention because you know what you want. And you know what? We love that for you. Someone else will too.
Be more you this year and find them on Bumble. Um, I think I just won my taxes. Yeah? I just switched to H&R Block in about one minute. All I had to do was drag and drop last year's return into H&R Block, and bam, my information is automatically there. So I don't have to go digging around for all my old papers to switch? Nope. Sounds like we just leveled up our tax game.
Switching to H&R Block is easy. Just drag and drop your last return. It's better with Block.
Today on Something You Should Know, a clever way to get discounts online for products you want to buy. Then, money and couples, and the best way to discuss the topic.
I think the biggest mistake couples make with money is that they don't have a shared vision of a rich life. You can't live a rich life if you're spending the next 30 years fighting about celery at the grocery store.
Also, there's something going on in your bedroom while you're sleeping you need to pay attention to. And all the extraordinary ways your sense of smell affects you, including your love life.
Those people who lose their sense of smell often report that their love lives suffer, so they don't feel as connected to their partner. And oftentimes they might not be aware that it's the sense of smell that brought about this close emotional tie between them.
All this today on Something You Should Know. Every time I've had to hire someone, it had to be done fast. But as I've discovered anyway, hiring can be very time-consuming. And even still, there are no guarantees. Which is why when it comes to hiring, Indeed is all you need. Right? The trick to finding the right person is to make sure a lot of qualified people know about your job opening.
And you see, Indeed has this thing called Sponsored Jobs. So your post jumps to the top of the page for relevant candidates. So you can reach the people you want to reach faster. And it works. Now here's what I think is the magic of Indeed.
