Netflix‘s How to Get Rich is advertised as a Marie Kondo-style coaching series for your checking, savings, retirement, and investment accounts.

The show features a wide range of characters, from working-class folks to six-figure earnings, and it works on two levels: It offers to provide some suggestions that you may find useful in your own circumstances, as well as disclose other people’s financial details, allowing us to condemn them for all of their blunders Juicy.

So, with the show’s popularity growing by the day, fans are anxious to learn more about the show host’s personal life and wonder what he really does.

During Ramit Sethi’s time at the university, he created a method that allowed him to apply for over 60 scholarships and earn enough money to go graduate school at Stanford.

Talking about the Netflix show, Ramit Sethi will spend the following eight episodes assisting a diverse group of Americans in sorting out their financial issues so they may live their rich life, which he claims will allow them to spend more money on what they love rather than what they despise.

What is the first thing Ramit Sethi does before meeting with people? He goes through their credit card and checking account statements looking for forensic evidence of financial incompetence. In this scenario, he notices overdraft costs, which occur because, according to Seth’s calculations, this household earns $24,000 per month but spends $27,000. And Matt and Amani are Sethi’s clients in the show’s first season.

Ramit Sethi comes down to interview them, and we quickly question whether he’s not only a financial expert, but also a marriage counselor, because Matt and Amani start fighting straight away, over deeper concerns than money – how they communicate, self-worth, and who controls what around here, and other delicate issues. Are we taken aback?

No, because if you’ve never had a money quarrel with your significant other that didn’t escalate into a disagreement about something bigger than money, you live in a culture that has yet to adopt a currency-based financial system.  Later, Sethi assigns homework to Matt and Amani – a journal full of questions to answer – as he does to everyone he consults with.

Following Matt and Amani, Ramit Sethi works with Donnell, a store employee, and Monique, a self-employed carpenter who has three children, one grandson, and approximately $200,000 in debt. Their credit is in bad shape. For some reason, they have heaps and piles of – no, not unpaid bills, but checking and savings accounts. They want to buy a house and speak more effectively about money, which they believe is taboo when it should not be. While they complete their studies, Sethi will calculate the numbers on homeownership for them.
