What the heck do we need money for? Is being rich ethical? At what point does saving money stop becoming a prudent decision to support yourself and becomes greed? We discuss America's culture of money, philanthropy vs. taxes, the way we were raised to think about money, the classic "what would you do with a million dollars?" question, and whether working hard really has anything to do with what economic class you wind up in.

Meronne mentioned in this episode an anecdote about Gary Varynerchuk selling his family's wine business. This was incorrect, he actually renamed the business to "Wine Library".
