Real Spiel 20/20 is an unscripted, unedited and unfiltered show hosted by Shawn King. This show takes an honest look at relevant topics and how they impact our personal and professional lives. ​Skip the dramatic savings scheme. Don’t go crazy with unrealistic goals about how much you’re going to save this year. Keep it simple; spend less than you make, and save up for the big-ticket items until you can afford them. But when you can, enjoy the fruits of your labor; money’s only something you need if you don’t die tomorrow. Avoid extreme and unrealistic health pledges. Eat right, exercise sensibly, and drink mostly in moderation; it’s not rocket science. Write down your goals. Less than 10% of people ever fulfill their resolutions, but when people make lists, they are significantly more likely to accomplish them. . Stay in on Friday nights. Go tech-free, read a book, avoid the teeny-bopper date night crowd, and have a more productive weekend. It’ll also save thousands of dollars per year. Put your phone away at dinner. Checking your phone after someone else pulls out their phone is the yawn of our generation. Get a comprehensive health exam. Spend more time with people you disagree with ideologically. This is how we get smarter. It’s okay to like Bill Maher and Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, Anderson Cooper, Sean Hannity and Sarah Silverman. Read more. Take a vacation by yourself. Make your bedroom technology free. You’ll sleep better, live longer, and have a better relationship with your partner.  Laugh more. What does that mean? Socialize. Drink. Throw parties. Host game nights. Upgrade your friends if necessary. Don’t just rely on the gym. Remember that feeling of playing a competitive sport as a kid, when you’re on the field, and not thinking about anything else? Take more pictures with a camera. You’ll end up doing more interesting things in the process. Make yourself more interesting. Take a course, class, or adopt a hobby. Don’t just read about Daisy and Jay, go out and be them. Most people wouldn’t even be the main characters in the movie of their own lives. Never forget: You die twice, once when you stop breathing, and again when somebody mentions your name for the last time. Live accordingly.
