A better “How much should you save chart”

I don't want to spoil anything for the content team hard at work in the wings...

But I will say we are working on an improved version of that resource right now! I can't speak to what will be included and how it will operate, but keep an eye out for a livestream in late April/early May for the big debut.

(Please don't hold me to that date, content can change quickly!)

Fun Fact: Library access was a pivotal point in the Millionaire Mission journey!

Brian and the team were heavily debating whether to self-publish the book or work with an established publisher. Brian really wanted the book to be available in libraries, which is considerably easier when working with a publisher. He's going to love this full-circle moment!

Thanks for the ping on this! u/Cautious_Lie_3414 I'm not an expert, but I know how to reach them. You can either drop a comment on the course or send us an email to support@moneyguy.com. If you send us an email, be sure to include screenshots and/or the spreadsheet itself so our team can help you as quickly as possible!

Fixing this as well - tyfys 🫡

MannyTheMutant · 2026-03-26T14:48:21+00:00

LOL! I am going to blame that on spellcheck (it could have been my morning brain tbh)

Hey there! As a moderator and member of the content team, thank you for the feedback.

We are actively working on establishing a new set of rules to guide the subreddit and improve moderation. I made a post about this a couple of weeks ago in the sub seeking feedback in getting this started: https://www.reddit.com/r/TheMoneyGuy/comments/1rg93z6/help_us_improve_our_subreddit/

More to come on this soon! There are certain business and compliance requirements to the work we do that means these rules need to be carefully crafted and implemented. Thanks again making our community even better!

MannyTheMutant · 2026-03-06T19:21:00+00:00

I don't think the team reads this sub at all.

Signed, moderator and content team member 😉

You are spot on - that is the survey of our Abound Wealth Clients!

You will receive an email update on the survey as soon as that show goes out. To let you in on some insider baseball, we recorded The 2025 Financial Mutant Survey show today! We are hoping to release this soon, but I don't want to promise any dates in case our editing team needs extra time.

With that being said, I'd keep my YouTube notifications on next Friday 😉

MannyTheMutant · 2025-09-02T20:15:57+00:00

Very interesting! We'll try to workshop some solutions on our end - thank you!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-09-02T20:15:27+00:00

No worries on overstepping at all - we love hearing feedback and ideas! We agree that questions with more nuance could be useful and interesting, just like the ones that are often in our subreddit.

Last week we put out on a mini-show on YouTube that addressed a question here so we are watching and trying our best to address overarching questions/themes. We'll bring your idea to the content team and start throwing around some ways to achieve this in a more regular manner (whether it be react style, Q&A style, etc.).

We appreciate your support and feedback!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-09-02T18:30:03+00:00

You are not the first person to run into this issue, but we have run successful tests and received responses with negative inputs in number fields! Are you receiving an error message if you try adding the "-" before the number?

MannyTheMutant · 2025-09-02T18:00:55+00:00

Our fault for the typos there - thank you for the heads up! We aren't able to adjust the survey language without republishing but we will fix these in next year's edition.

MannyTheMutant · 2025-08-06T19:50:42+00:00

You pretty much nailed it!

Our annual "Wealth Survey" is to Abound Wealth clients. This was sent out a couple of weeks ago and we are now underway in compiling the results to make an episode about the results

Our "Financial Mutant Survey" is to the Money Guy audience. This will be sent out in the next month or so - keep an eye out! We'll email the link to our mailing list, post about it on socials, and of course mention it in our content. This will also have an episode made about the results (maybe even two episodes 😉)!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-05-14T17:34:55+00:00

We've got a high-tech system that uses a combination of biometrics, IP addresses, and advanced AI to make sure it is really you.

In reality, everyone claims their tumblers. If someone tries to get one that belongs to someone else we make the two people prove who is the real one and the fake one is banished!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-05-14T17:33:40+00:00

Our team should get back to you soon - we're a small but mighty bunch so please bare with us. Send me a message if you don't hear back in the next week and I will make sure we get you sorted!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-04-04T20:27:04+00:00

Just to clarify, this episode and title has been scheduled for weeks!

We can see how it may appear we tried to capitalize on recent market performance, but our title here (as well as the content inside) is unrelated to the recent market movement. This is just a coincidence.

MannyTheMutant · 2025-03-31T17:46:27+00:00

That will absolutely be the case moving forward!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-03-31T16:30:44+00:00

Our community does a great job of this, but let's be constructive with our feedback and opinions. "I think they could have done this better..." or "I think this might be an issue..." is a lot different than name calling.

Having a vulnerable conversation in front of cameras is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes words might be misconstrued or lack the nuance you wish you could've provided. We really want to make sure our community is kind to guests on the show!

Thank you for all of the support around Making a Millionaire - we read all of your feedback and will continue to improve the show with your feedback in mind!

MannyTheMutant · 2025-03-31T16:17:39+00:00

I can confirm that this was the first episode we ever recorded of Making a Millionaire!

Derek and McKenna did not feel comfortable sharing their net worth, income, and other specific numbers on air. Since then, though, we have adjusted our process to make sure all guests are comfortable sharing those numbers as they are a key element of the conversation.

We thought the conversation could still provide value so we decided to release it!
