What Is The $400 Problem?
According to Ram Palianappan, the CEO and founder of Earnin, 40% of the people in America cannot find $400 in their bank account when they need it.

I knew I was obviously gonna love my son, but I wept when he was born, I mean, I dropped because I just couldn't. That was just an amazing, amazing experience. I think the biggest revelation is that it's a constantly moving target.
When you have a kid, you could be doing everything right and he's still just not gonna sleep right, or you did everything right and he still just doesn't want to feed ...etc.
I think that's a really good just practice for life.
You can do all the things right in life, you can wake up early, you can work out and eat healthy, but you still might get cancer. You just never know.
