The G&E Show

Grant and Elena urge everyone to communicate! There are tough topics that affect relationships and money is certainly one. It is vital that couples are on the same page when it comes to money. Grant and Elena admit that when they first met the money discussion was difficult. Elena earned her own money but says as a “free spirit” and a “giver” she spent her money on others. Elena was earning a great living as an actress and between roles and commercials was able to afford a home and several muscle cars. She never spoke about money with any of the men she dated before meeting Grant. Grant is a numbers guy and when he met Elena he had a clear goal for his financial future. It was important to Grant that the partner he chose had respect for money. Grant explains that you cannot expect to hand over the financial responsibility to the other person and that both people must be on the same page. Grant also says that he thinks it is sexist to presume women have different views on money than men and that each individual, regardless of male or female, has their own personal views about money. Grant encourages couples to focus on what they do want out of life as opposed to the differences and they will see they aren’t as different as they thought. Take away tips on Money and Relationships: 1. Communicate 2. Negotiate 3. Be on the Same Page Brands and People Mentioned on this episode include: Dave Ramsey, Tiffany & Company.

Entrepreneur and NY Times bestselling author Grant Cardone and wife Elena Cardone, offer 3 steps to solve every problem on the G and E Show. Problems arise in any relationship. Life gets complicated but with three simple questions one can come to conclusions faster so they can solve problems. Grant believes when things are too easy to be on alert because trouble is on the way. He also explains that too many people talk about what they would like to do or what they want out of life but few actually take steps to make anything worthwhile happen. Recently Grant interviewed Larry Winget, motivator and best selling author who offered Grant these 3 steps to solve problems and inspire action. 1. Determine where you are presently. 2. Determine where you want to be. 3. Determine what you are willing to give up to get there. Grant and Elena apply these three steps to matters regarding their girls schooling and Grant and Elena’s bike rides along the boardwalk on Miami Beach.

On today's episode Elena and Grant talk about Ray Rice and the controversy surrounding his suspension after allegedly physically assaulting his fiancé in an elevator in Atlantic City. The media has been weighing in on this story and the issue of physical abuse. Everyone from ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith whose comments on the matter got him suspended for a week by the network to Whoopie Goldberg and the ladies of ABC’s The View have been sounding off on this hot topic. Grant and Elena begin the show talking about “whoopins” they got as kids which becomes the overall message of the show. Parents should not hit their kids. It does nothing to change the behavior and instead devalues both the child and the parent. Additionally it teaches by example that hitting is normal and acceptable which only creates a cycle and legacy of physical abuse. Callers weigh in on physical abuse and ultimately the message Grant and Elena send is clear: 1. Parent must not hit their kids. 2. Women must NOT hit men. 3. Men must NOT hit women. 4. People overall should not hit one another. Relevant Links: Ray Rice Controversy: http://ftw.usatoday.com/2014/07/steph... Stephen A.

Grant Cardone talks about how to resolve conflict with his Wife Elena Cardone on G&E show First the question is why am I doing this weekly show on relationships ----- I am the business guy -- Sales Guy Negotiating and money guy But let me explain ---my relationship with Wifey and my kids -- my family is the most important businesss I am running... Why have success in business and not have it at home... And its tough to be on all day and then say -- ahhh turn it off... I share every problem I have with my wife Wife -- Mother Friend Most trusted sounded board And Elena and I are working on a number of other projects together that puts us working together --- And that is a whole different kind of relationship. We have now joined the status as the Go To couple for advice. I received an email from a gal that works with her husband and they fight a lot at work. She gets angry at him and the last thing she feels like doing is talking to him at night when they go home. She does her thing, he does his etc. The marriage is suffering but they can't not work together ----- they work together. She writes that she is desperate for help. What do I do Elena? So now that I am the uncertified expert I wrote her back and I will tell you what I told her and then you tell me what you would have said. I just looked at what we do. 1) When I do this with GRANT ----- I go on and on and about from minor ot more significant terrible or slightly terrible errors he makes everyday Then I remind myself that never helps me.... Criticizing him does not make me feel better. I told her to do what I do - I look at what I can change ---- I need to do the changing not him. I find one thing I am doing that I am not ok with 2) Knock it off and quit acting like a little bitch ---- 3) Make a list of at least 5 things that she likes/loves about him and remained focused on those! 4) Start paying attention to the things I like about him not the things I don't. (Whats my score) Take away: · You are responsible for everything that happens to you....only thing you can control is the thing you are willing to control · Change what are you doing that is not optimal · Re-establish fondness for the other · Give Give Give is always GRANTs first rule · Relationships are complicated. · They need to be worked on over and over. · What you did yesterday won't create tomorrow. · In relationships you are either making deposits or making withdrawals. The main thing is to get on same page with goals and objectives and to not get so wrapped up in smaller issues. Then you can get to a point where you can talk business 24/7 cuz you are teammates again.
