The Best One Yet - 🥸 “Rice & beans forever” — Dave Ramsey’s financial advice. Scrabble’s new game. BMW’s electric surprise.

✅ Vote for TBOY to win the “Best Business Podcast” Webby Award: https://vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2024/podcasts/shows/business

Dave Ramsey has created a $200M fortune by giving out financial advice on the radio, but now he’s facing a backlash — So we’ll share our #1 rule for personal finance.

Scrabble just unveiled “Scrabble Together”, which is less competitive, more for fun — Purists were furious, but this reminds us of Coca-Cola’s new sodas and the backlash they received (or didn’t). 

And the surprise car brand that’s catching up to Tesla? BMW — Beamers are doing one thing on the assembly line that no other car company is, and its electric cars are thriving.

Plus, the #1 new office accessory is the couch — But have we hit peak office comfort couch?
