It seems that all Mindy & the guy are only interested in making this Side-Hussle to make them more money. Nothing solid is being Shared. These folks or their guests Never share which Stocks or Mutual Funds invested in to be Financially well off. Even in this last episode with the King of FI, JL Collins … never bothered to Ask him what do you have in your Portfolio or your daughter, are you folks just Buying VTSAX or VTI, and for bonds VBTLX or BND. And How are Living off of your Portfolio when VTI is kicking off ONLY 1.23% Dividend. Never any Useful tips, just more ADs & ADs.

The show seems to focus more on Scott then a larger population. I listed to multiple episodes and was repeatedly finding everything to be about how it applied to Scott. I did enjoy some episodes but found they tended to be the ones without him in them. I believe there can be a greater application of this podcast.

BiggerPockets Money is hands down my favorite podcast of all time! Over the course of 14,765 miles (and counting) of running, it has kept me entertained, informed, and motivated to make smarter financial decisions. The hosts break down complex money topics in a way that’s both engaging and actionable, with real-life stories that resonate. Whether you’re just starting your financial journey or looking to optimize your wealth, this podcast is a must-listen. It’s been the perfect companion on my long runs helping me go the distance both financially and physically! Thank you so much Scott & Mindy! - Jared

I was really excited to listen to the most recent episode about diversifying investments from index funds but, wow, I found Scott’s anxiety about market uncertainty to be incredibly anxiety-inducing. It didn’t feel very informative. It felt like Scott was almost seeking the audience members’ assurance.

You said under this administration you don’t think taxes will go up but in the next 30 years taxes will increase. Vote to keep your money in your pocket it seems like a simple solution

Scott had me hooked in the most recent episode as he almost seemed to imply that VTSAX and chill was not sufficient. But after listening to the whole show I heard a slightly less controversial decision from Scott. He’s achieved FI and doesn’t need another slam dunk. He just wants to protect his assets so he is moving to a more typical retiree portfolio. Makes sense for him especially since he feels very competent with real estate. Good food for thought.

I’ve been listening to this podcast since it started and I’m still enjoying it years later. Thank you Mindy & Scott!

I’ve listened to every single episode and just cannot get enough! Wonderful free education this show has given me a great base and inspired me to reach for FIRE!

I didn’t know what I didn’t know. Bigger pockets help me to know what questions to ask to learn what I need to be successful. They have given me exactly what I needed!

Bigger Pockets Money has changed my life. When I stumbled across the podcast, about four years ago, I had nothing. No savings, no house, just debt. By utilizing the knowledge I have gained by listening to hundreds of episodes, I now am planning on retiring early with a seven figure net worth. I couldn’t be more grateful!

These people are so out of touch with reality. They drew up a scenario to get a 50 year old with zero net worth to retirement. The lady’s advice was to go find a $30,000/mo side hustle. The guy rightfully pushed back on that absurd suggestion but then countered with saving up 25k to buy a 4-500k house on an entry level salary. I’m sorry but nobody earning 50k a year is getting approved for a 400k mortgage. Also the lady is very annoying to listen to. Seems like a phony. Unsubscribing.

I really enjoyed episode 576 withMindy and Scott’s reflection on their FIRE journeys. They did a great job of sharing important lessons to help you think about FI beyond just numbers. As Mindy mentioned, It's so important to find a way to enjoy the journey itself and this episode was a great reminder to build a life you actually love. Thank you for the motivation and interesting perspective on balancing frugality and joy!

She is very annoying to listen to. Scott is okay, but maybe some new hosts are needed to liven up the show and make it flow better. I have found other podcasts to listen to instead of this one that give the same info but the host isn’t gratingly annoying like Mindy.

Don't push passive investments. Right now, you have tons of "syndicators" on BP who are incompetent at best or basically stealing investors' money. The fact that you promote these investments now is shameless. The fact that you actually want to charge your users to get access to these terrible investments (more often than not) shows your true colors, Scott. Also, let your guests speak more.

Work

Used to get a lot out of these shows. Now the thumbnails are bush league and regurgitated content is useless. BP has lost their way and it’s showing…

Great info but with the addition of redundant comments and tons of advertising makes it difficult to filter the important details. Should really consider not having so much propaganda mid episode. Unfortunately agree with previous poor ratings. Gave it a chance. Unfollowing now.

I used to love this show, but unfortunately Mindy going so hard and negative on the younger crowd’s investment decisions was too much. She also brags how she bought Tesla and it went up a lot but then tells us we must buy index funds lol

I would listen to this podcast much more if the episodes were like half as long and they got to the information to be concise. It’s a lot of story telling and filler. We don’t all have time to dedicate to an hour and ten minutes. Feels like they could just save us some time when we all have lots going on.

I’d stay away from anything bigger pockets related. I had a thread on their forum with personal details and they refused to remove it for me. Very sad and not a good look for the company. Just robotic responses, nothing like what they were 10 years ago when I joined.

I really appreciate Scott’s sharp thinking to always zoom out and summarize key takeaways / learnings for us. This podcast does a great job spotlighting different stories and backgrounds.

Really loved this longer and in depth discussion of episode 538 for late starters. The conversation was full and filled with great tips and insight from all 4 speakers. I saved it to listen again. Would like more longer and in depth discussions like this with the highs, the lessons learned in the journey and real numbers and portfolio makeup.

Thank you for saying it.

Love this podcast but realized that details are lacking in the episodes. I would love to hear more details about how people got successful rather than the high level overview that is usually given. Valuable information and inspiration is given and I enjoy that aspect. This would be a 5 star podcast if the guests could give more of their step by step process to get from point A to point B.

I’ve been listening for several years now, and this is one of my favorite podcasts. I love Mindy and Scott. I’m also super excited to see Amanda returning as a host. I have been following her since she was a guest on this podcast and really appreciate her point of view. One negative is that Bigger Pockets seems to be selling out with the commercials lately. Blue Nile and EBay don’t really seem aligned to the values BP share with listeners.

I’m up 700% on my Bitcoin investment. Just pointing that out for the Dave Ramsey crowd over here

I really enjoy this show. It has more than just real estate investors and talks about getting your money right. I do wish we had more people that were actually in the trenches and y’all giving them instructions on what to do next, instead of people that used to be in the trenches and are now successful. Some hot seat episodes so to say. I want to get out of my situation, but can’t seem to find the right first step, and it would be nice to have some real time guidance.

Great show. I enjoy listening to all the great content. Thank You!

I have been listening to the podcast for years, love it! BUT now there are SO MANY commercials, it ruins it…

Been listening to you guys since the beginning, great podcast, thanks for directing me in changing my life

I’m not just here for the great dialog but also the never ending quality of shows.

My goodness, I absolutely love this show and listen every week but Vivian Tu was absolutely terrible. Please never ever have her on again. She goes against everything that makes this show and Biggerpockets so great.

Great content, and very thoughtful episodes! Can’t wait to listen and learn more about the financial world.

This was my finance/money STAPLE when I started my journey. I love this podcast and Bigger Pockets. I recommend it to all my friends looking to start their personal finance journey.

Love this show especially finance Friday. But just listened to the campfi episode with Stephen and Mindy was just rude as she continues to be. She told Stephen he was bad at selling campfi and I was very interested that sounds like there’s people like him there and not just people with annoying high energy like Mindy there. She then tried selling it herself and I was like ugh this is just another get together with people with that extrovert high energy. Not everyone is like you Mindy.

How is the bigger pockets money show advertising Draft Kings???? Disappointed.

On the most recent show you mentioned several times that low income (MAGI) would result in access to Medicare. (A federal program for the elderly or those with disabilities). I think you meant Medicaid - the state run program. Otherwise love the guests- especially Michael Kitces and Sean Mullaney. Keep it up!

Love listening to this show! Highly recommend!

This is one of the most informative and easy to listen to podcasts about all things money!

This is the podcast you need to listen to when you’re getting started. I am heavily interested in real estate but I’m not able to start in real estate how I want to because I can’t qualify for real estate on my own until I have one more year of business income. This podcast has educated me on other ways how to grow my money in the meantime.

The recent Codie Sanchez episode was particularly inspiring!! Love it all for the ideas and experiences though.

I’ve been listening to your show for a couple years and love your content. I’ve made many small but impactful changes to my finances over the last couple of years and now own 8 rental properties that are cash flowing my daughters college expenses. Yay!! On this Mother’s Day morning, I went for a nice walk on a nearby trail and listened to your episode that highlighted Jazmyn’s story. Wow. Hours later, I sit here and am still so moved by what I heard today. I am filled with gratitude toward Scott and Mindy, and want to thank you for the content you share with the BP community.

Love all BP Shows but especially this one as it gives some great variety to topics that aren't just real estate focused

They get good interviewees, have good topics, but the hosts don’t interject to ask questions enough. And when they do, they’re not good questions. So we don’t get a clear, in depth interview like we do with the pros on the main Bigger Pockets podcast. Work on your hosting skills, guys. Do more prep, so we can all get more out of these.

Love the wide range of topics and audiences!

I’m so excited when new episodes launch. The podcast has taught me so many money saving tips!

This show is amazing. Trustworthy, helpful and fun!

The path to having more money doesn’t have many steps. Podcasts cover all the necessities quickly, but the biggest benefit they usually provide are voices that reinforce the message. For the shortened listening experience, I highly recommend some of the earlier episodes with stories of people who made it and episodes with tips about how to save and invest. Some of the best are the episode with Scott Trench #2, David Greene #12, Julie #181, and Barabara Sloan #386

Really liked the discussion with Chris Lopez. I’d like more strategy oriented content like this. Keep up the great content.
