  Suze: December 25th, 2025. What do you want to say?
• 0:11
  KT: Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas. Happy Christmas. It's here.
• 0:15
  Suze: It's here. She says Happy. I say Merry, Merry Christmas..
• 0:19
  KT: And happy Hanukkah for those of you that enjoyed that
• 0:22
  KT: week of lighting candles, playing the dreidel game, Suze, tell them what the dreidel is
• 0:28
  Suze: I was just gonna say, and we hope all of
• 0:29
  Suze: you had a great Hanukkah because we did. And what's
• 0:32
  Suze: so strange about the dreidel game that KT just talked about,
• 0:36
  Suze: which is literally just a game,
• 0:38
  KT: Little wooden tops, and you spin them.
• 0:40
  Suze: And depending on what comes up on the top when
• 0:42
  Suze: it lands, you either win money, you, whatever it is.
• 0:46
  Suze: Every time she did it she won.
• 0:48
  KT: I won.
• 0:48
  Suze: I'm telling you she fixed it. I don't know how
• 0:50
  Suze: she did that, but it's impossible that that little top
• 0:54
  Suze: landed on winning every single time. But anyway, what else
• 0:59
  Suze: were you gonna say, KT?
• 1:00
  KT: I've been working the past few days, everyone, in our
• 1:03
  KT: storage unit here in Florida, and we'll tell you why
• 1:07
  KT: in a moment, but
• 1:08
  KT: I get a phone call yesterday. It's late in the afternoon,
• 1:12
  KT: Christmas Eve. Suze said, KT, come home, come home, I
• 1:16
  KT: miss you. I said, all right, I have to make
• 1:18
  KT: one stop at FedEx. I stopped at FedEx. I'm shipping
• 1:21
  KT: all these things, and the two guys I work with,
• 1:24
  KT: Rodney and Gavin, look at me and say, KT, you
• 1:26
  KT: don't look very happy. It's Christmas.
• 1:29
  KT: I said, you know what, boys, I don't even have
• 1:30
  KT: a tree yet. I don't have a Christmas tree. I
• 1:34
  KT: think I'll stop and get some clippings and put them
• 1:36
  KT: in a vase like Suze and I do all the
• 1:39
  KT: time and put lights on it and, and try to
• 1:42
  KT: make it a Merry Christmas. And they said, KT, forget
• 1:46
  KT: about it. It's already, you know, Christmas Eve, it's over. Anyway...
• 1:50
  Suze: Wait, before she goes on.
• 1:52
  Suze: On the island, because it's not easy to get Christmas
• 1:56
  Suze: trees on and off an island, we had this big tree,
• 2:00
  Suze: as all of you saw over all the years that
• 2:02
  Suze: was artificial, and that was that, right?
• 2:05
  KT: Colo and I would decorate it.
• 2:07
  Suze: As you also would see, but in Florida, which is
• 2:10
  Suze: where we are, we don't have that tree. And so therefore,
• 2:15
  Suze: go on, KT.
• 2:16
  KT: OK, so I said, all right, so I go home.
• 2:19
  KT: I get home.
• 2:20
  KT: And the door in the foyer of our condo is
• 2:23
  KT: closed and it smells delicious. It smells like mulling spices
• 2:29
  KT: and cloves and cinnamon, and, and Suze's greeting me at
• 2:32
  KT: the door, which is rare, and she said, KT, I'm
• 2:36
  KT: so glad you're home. I said, Susie, it smells delicious.
• 2:39
  KT: It smells like Christmas.
• 2:41
  KT: And she said, KT, Merry Christmas, and she opens the
• 2:45
  KT: door and there in front of me is a beautiful
• 2:50
  KT: live Christmas tree decorated with little baby lights, little crystals
• 2:56
  KT: hanging on, crystal ornaments and photographs all over the tree,
• 3:02
  KT: and I burst into tears. I was crying and crying,
• 3:06
  KT: and I told her how I was telling the boys
• 3:08
  KT: at FedEx I don't have a tree.
• 3:11
  KT: Anyway, Suze, when I was working all day, did this
• 3:15
  KT: by herself, a huge surprise...
• 3:19
  Suze: To both of us, I didn't know how to wrap
• 3:23
  Suze: lights on a tree because the one in the island,
• 3:26
  KT: Everything was automatic.
• 3:27
  Suze: Yeah, you opened up the things and there were the lights.
• 3:29
  Suze: I mean, it was quite something.
• 3:31
  KT: So Suze did this by herself. No one could believe
• 3:34
  KT: she put this all together. She had a stand. She
• 3:37
  KT: had a beautiful red satin...
• 3:39
  KT: Um, we'll have to send a picture to everyone. We'll send,
• 3:42
  KT: we'll post a photo tomorrow. We'll post it tomorrow.
• 3:45
  Suze: That was my...
• 3:47
  KT: Wait, can I tell them the photos? The photos on
• 3:50
  KT: the tree, everyone was significant and meaningful, and I'm not
• 3:56
  KT: gonna share the details, but she wrote a personal note
• 3:59
  KT: on the back of each photograph.
• 4:02
  KT: And I cried and cried and cried and I said
• 4:05
  KT: this is the best Christmas gift of all time and
• 4:10
  KT: the house smells like pine.
• 4:12
  Suze: I was so happy because I was able to give
• 4:15
  Suze: her something that she really, really wanted. So that's how
• 4:21
  Suze: Christmas started began.
• 4:22
  KT: That's how it began on Christmas Eve, which is really
• 4:26
  KT: the most significant night that we celebrate being Italians.
• 4:31
  Suze: You know, KT, I don't know if we ever even
• 4:33
  Suze: finished the beginning of this podcast, which is, Welcome everybody
• 4:37
  Suze: to the Women in Money podcast as well as everybody
• 4:39
  Suze: smart enough to listen. We just went straight into Christmas, KT,
• 4:44
  Suze: and maybe all of you noticed that the
• 4:47
  Suze: title of this podcast is There's Something I Want to
• 4:50
  Suze: Say to You Older Folks. And the truth of the
• 4:55
  Suze: matter is KT and I are older folks now. I'm
• 4:58
  Suze: going to be 75. KT's going to be 74. So
• 5:02
  Suze: many of you out there
• 5:04
  Suze: are older than us, are our same age, are 10
• 5:07
  Suze: years younger than us, and a few of you who
• 5:10
  Suze: are smart enough to listen are a lot younger than that.
• 5:14
  KT: Do you feel older? Do you feel like an older folk?
• 5:19
  Suze: It depends how my body feels, honestly.
• 5:22
  KT: How about your heart?
• 5:23
  Suze: Oh, my heart is as young, as young
• 5:26
  KT: And feisty
• 5:27
  Suze: and loving as possible.
• 5:29
  KT: We're having a honeymoon.
• 5:30
  Suze: Yeah, we are.
• 5:31
  KT: And what, what about, um, what about your head? How
• 5:35
  KT: you think?
• 5:36
  Suze: Oh, of course I think like a two year old.
• 5:38
  Suze: Are you kidding me? But, but there's a reason why
• 5:43
  Suze: I wanted to call this podcast that.
• 5:47
  Suze: Because when you get older, sometimes, no matter how much
• 5:52
  Suze: you love something,
• 5:55
  Suze: No matter what's going on in your life that you
• 5:58
  Suze: hope goes on forever.
• 6:01
  Suze: Sometimes there's a time that things just need to come
• 6:06
  Suze: to an end.
• 6:08
  KT: It's called change.
• 6:09
  Suze: And it's called change. And as many of you know,
• 6:14
  Suze: for the past 14 years, KT and I have lived
• 6:19
  Suze: on the most magnificent private island.
• 6:23
  Suze: In an extraordinary home that I built for KT from
• 6:27
  Suze: the ground up, I designed every aspect of that home
• 6:33
  Suze: to be called pure perfection for KT, and that was
• 6:38
  Suze: a gift. The island, truthfully, everybody was a gift to KT.
• 6:44
  Suze: We had Colo there as you know we had a
• 6:48
  Suze: dock we had a boat we had fishing equipment we
• 6:51
  Suze: had it all. The name of our home, our boat,
• 6:57
  Suze: even our everything around us is what KT?
• 7:01
  KT: Purnata.
• 7:02
  Suze: Tell everybody what Purnata means.
• 7:04
  KT: Purnata means perfection.
• 7:06
  Suze: And in actuality it was a perfect life, a perfect time,
• 7:13
  Suze: and we lived in pure perfection.
• 7:17
  Suze: All right, KT, you're on.
• 7:19
  KT: So after 14 years of living perfection, honestly, and loving
• 7:25
  KT: every minute except for hurricane season, loving every minute of
• 7:30
  KT: our experience together...
• 7:32
  Suze: The truth is we really loved hurricane season too.
• 7:35
  KT: You were petrified of hurricane.
• 7:37
  Suze: Yes, but I loved the wind. I love that doesn't
• 7:40
  Suze: mean I wasn't afraid, but I was.
• 7:41
  KT: She liked the Mother Nature. We never knew when she
• 7:44
  KT: was gonna deliver and what she was gonna deliver. So anyway,
• 7:48
  KT: we both looked at each other, and after all these years,
• 7:51
  KT: after over a decade of our life, we knew it
• 7:53
  KT: was time for change.
• 7:55
  KT: And as difficult as it might seem and as people
• 7:59
  KT: wonder like, well, why? Sometimes you just need change, everybody,
• 8:03
  KT: so we sold our island home and it just closed
• 8:08
  KT: last week with a lot of tears and a lot
• 8:12
  KT: of work to take all of your life and move.
• 8:17
  Suze: And which is why KT was in the storage unit
• 8:21
  Suze: where many of the things went, but Colo, everybody, and
• 8:25
  Suze: I know you're all wondering about, but what is Colo
• 8:29
  Suze: gonna do? Did he come with you? Is he living
• 8:31
  Suze: there with you? What about Colo?
• 8:33
  KT: Yeah, everyone doesn't care that we, we sold our home.
• 8:36
  KT: They're saying, Well, what'd you do with Colo?
• 8:38
  Suze: The truth of the matter is Colo is staying on
• 8:42
  Suze: the island that he actually has been on for over
• 8:45
  Suze: 20 some odd years now.
• 8:48
  Suze: And he's going to stay with the home. He loves
• 8:54
  Suze: the new owner. He loves the new owner's wife. It
• 8:58
  Suze: is so perfect for him, and you know what he
• 9:01
  Suze: loves more than anything?
• 9:03
  KT: His wife!
• 9:04
  Suze: His wife Annie is going to be with him.
• 9:07
  KT: And she's there now having Christmas with him, right? And
• 9:11
  KT: so he really doesn't miss us that much.
• 9:13
  Suze: No, but they're gonna work it out that they can
• 9:16
  Suze: have a life together as time goes on.
• 9:20
  Suze: And so Colo, I know that you're listening to this.
• 9:23
  Suze: You know we miss you. You know we love you.
• 9:28
  Suze: KT is now crying.
• 9:30
  KT: Colo, Susie got me a real tree, and I, I
• 9:33
  KT: wish you were here to decorate it with us.
• 9:36
  Suze: It's decorated. I did a great job.
• 9:38
  KT: I know, but Cola, we decorated our tree together for
• 9:41
  KT: so many years.
• 9:42
  Suze: All right, so while she's now crying, because obviously you
• 9:47
  Suze: can all imagine,
• 9:49
  Suze: what it's like leaving a home like that, but the
• 9:53
  Suze: truth of the matter is.
• 9:56
  Suze: That we're so happy now in our little condo, and
• 10:01
  Suze: what I love most about it, everybody, is that over
• 10:06
  Suze: the years.
• 10:07
  Suze: KT and I have owned many, many homes. At one point,
• 10:12
  Suze: not so long ago, we had five homes. We had
• 10:16
  Suze: a magnificent home in South Africa where I worked. We
• 10:20
  Suze: actually had two in in New York, one in the
• 10:24
  Suze: Plaza Hotel, everybody.
• 10:26
  KT: San Francisco
• 10:27
  Suze: San Francisco, magnificent.
• 10:31
  Suze: And the island, it was...
• 10:33
  KT: The island was like the cherry on top
• 10:36
  Suze: And the condo in Florida, which is where we are now,
• 10:40
  Suze: which we got in 2004 simply because my mother, who
• 10:46
  Suze: lived in Chicago, refused to move here unless KT and
• 10:51
  Suze: I moved here. So one day we went fine.
• 10:55
  KT: Tell them what we did. We, we called my sister
• 10:58
  KT: Lynn and said, find us a condo we can just
• 11:01
  KT: fly down and buy something on the beach, something small,
• 11:04
  KT: something easy. So she said, OK, we flew from New York. We,
• 11:09
  KT: we were working like every day doing shows and really busy.
• 11:13
  KT: We flew down early in the morning, got off the plane,
• 11:17
  KT: came and looked at with a realtor at a couple condos,
• 11:20
  KT: found this one, said, done.
• 11:22
  KT: Suze wrote a check, got back on the plane at lunchtime,
• 11:26
  KT: and went back to New York to work. That was
• 11:29
  KT: our little Florida condo, and that's why her mom decided
• 11:34
  KT: and agreed to move out of Chicago to Florida.
• 11:38
  Suze: And to our surprise, honestly.
• 11:41
  Suze: We fell in love with Florida.
• 11:42
  KT: We loved it here.
• 11:44
  Suze: We were in shock.
• 11:45
  KT: First of all, everything was easy driving here.
• 11:49
  Suze: We didn't need a driver here.
• 11:50
  KT: We didn't need a driver. We actually shipped our San
• 11:52
  KT: Francisco car here, so we had a car. Long story short,
• 11:58
  KT: we couldn't believe how easy it was to drive around
• 12:01
  KT: and park for all of you New Yorkers, you know
• 12:05
  KT: what it means to try
• 12:07
  KT: and park a car in New York City.
• 12:09
  Suze: But what was fascinating is we go out to eat sushi,
• 12:13
  Suze: $32 the exact same meal because we always order the
• 12:17
  Suze: same thing was like $200 in New York. So little
• 12:22
  Suze: by little we fell in love with it and we
• 12:25
  Suze: changed our residency from California to Florida because we now
• 12:30
  Suze: are in Florida all the time.
• 12:33
  Suze: And truthfully wanna hear something that was great...
• 12:36
  KT: It's warm.
• 12:36
  Suze: Besides that, what we saved on California income tax, paid
• 12:41
  Suze: for the condo outright the next year, so it was fabulous,
• 12:47
  Suze: everybody in every possible way and again, California is really
• 12:52
  Suze: where we lived most of the time, but not anymore
• 12:57
  Suze: as soon as we moved here.
• 13:00
  Suze: Then as time went on, just so you know our
• 13:03
  Suze: history of homes, because we were never in California anymore
• 13:08
  Suze: really because we loved it here so much, we sold
• 13:12
  Suze: the California residency
• 13:14
  KT: And the Suze Orman Show was always taped in New
• 13:17
  KT: York City.
• 13:18
  Suze: But we were never in New York long enough to
• 13:20
  Suze: become New York residents because we were Florida residents. So
• 13:26
  Suze: then as time went on.
• 13:29
  Suze: We ended the Suze Orman show in 2015.
• 13:33
  KT: So after Suze said, KT, we're gonna get rid of everything,
• 13:38
  KT: sold New York, sold California, sold South Africa, so here
• 13:41
  KT: we are in Florida, and Suze decides we need to travel, we,
• 13:47
  KT: we can't just stay in this little condo so she
• 13:49
  KT: buys a big yacht. And I think all of you
• 13:52
  KT: that know us know that we lived on.
• 13:55
  KT: A beautiful large asimut. We had a captain, a big yacht,
• 13:59
  KT: and we had it right here in the Florida condo
• 14:02
  KT: in a, um, a little marina that this condo has.
• 14:06
  KT: So everyone, we traveled all throughout the Bahamas loving our
• 14:10
  KT: life on a yacht, our little condo in Florida, and
• 14:13
  KT: when I say little, it's little, it's a little two
• 14:16
  KT: bedroom and one room is now her recording studio which
• 14:19
  KT: we're in right now. We love it.
• 14:21
  KT: And we lived on that yacht and then discovered our
• 14:25
  KT: little private island which then we bought land, built the home,
• 14:30
  KT: and that's what we've done, I guess, in the past
• 14:33
  KT: 25 years together. So now it's time for a new chapter.
• 14:39
  KT: It's 2025. It's our 25th anniversary. Suze's turning 75. It's the.
• 14:47
  KT: the perfect time for something different different new.
• 14:52
  Suze: However, the little boat that we had is over here
• 14:56
  Suze: as well in a little marina here, so life will
• 15:00
  Suze: go on in certain ways...
• 15:03
  KT: But we can't wait to explore again and travel.
• 15:07
  KT: We cannot wait to do that. We're, we're actually really
• 15:11
  KT: excited as much as you, my friends, everyone's saying, KT,
• 15:15
  KT: how can you leave your island? How can you and
• 15:18
  KT: Suze leave such a, an amazing one of a kind lifestyle?
• 15:23
  KT: And I said, you know what, it was just time.
• 15:26
  KT: And I keep using a metaphor that you'll all relate to.
• 15:30
  KT: Remember when you're in high school and it's time to
• 15:33
  KT: either go and get a job or go to college
• 15:36
  KT: or do whatever you're doing, but you left high school
• 15:39
  KT: and those friends that you grew up with for four
• 15:43
  KT: years and loved every minute of it and you're still
• 15:46
  KT: pretty
• 15:47
  KT: much single and it's time for something new that is
• 15:52
  KT: exciting but at the same time you're so sad to
• 15:54
  KT: leave what you knew and loved all those years. That's
• 15:58
  KT: what it feels like it's new and it's time.
• 16:01
  Suze: Yeah, and the reason why
• 16:04
  Suze: I wanted to call this podcast that there are things
• 16:08
  Suze: that I wanna say to you older folks, is that
• 16:13
  Suze: now that we've actually done this.
• 16:16
  Suze: I have to tell you, KT and I feel young again.
• 16:21
  KT: Honeymoon.
• 16:22
  Suze: Young in a different way, like we're gonna be forever young,
• 16:26
  Suze: and I finally, I know everybody's gonna think we're crazy.
• 16:31
  Suze: That I achieved a dream that I've always had.
• 16:36
  Suze: Do you remember what that dream is, KT?
• 16:39
  KT: It makes me laugh because it's kind of funny that you're,
• 16:42
  KT: she's setting it up like this romantic dream but wanna
• 16:45
  KT: hear what it really is?
• 16:47
  Suze: That if we, that if we had to.
• 16:51
  Suze: If we hadn't amassed everything that we have, and you
• 16:54
  Suze: can imagine it doesn't even matter, but if we were
• 16:57
  Suze: like just, just...
• 16:59
  KT: Just me and Suze, we can live on our Social
• 17:02
  KT: Security checks...
• 17:03
  Suze: In this little condo without because we don't own anything.
• 17:08
  KT: We have no expenses. We have no debt. We have
• 17:11
  KT: a free life.
• 17:13
  Suze: Are we gonna live like that? Are you crazy, everybody?
• 17:16
  Suze: There's a few luxuries that we are not going to
• 17:18
  Suze: give up. Trust me on that one.
• 17:21
  KT: But just the knowing that she can do that, being
• 17:24
  KT: the money lady, that means a great deal to Suze,
• 17:27
  KT: not to me, but to Suze.
• 17:29
  Suze: However, more than that.
• 17:33
  Suze: Both of us are so happy like yesterday and early
• 17:38
  Suze: this morning.
• 17:40
  Suze: I have to tell you when we were talking to
• 17:42
  Suze: KT's brother and we said we feel so young again,
• 17:45
  Suze: we feel so free, but here's the point of what
• 17:49
  Suze: I want to say to everybody out there.
• 17:52
  Suze: There comes this time when it makes sense, emotionally, physically,
• 17:58
  Suze: and financially to downsize. It just does, and we have
• 18:04
  Suze: significantly now downsized our life, and I mean significantly, and
• 18:09
  Suze: in the way that I tell all of you.
• 18:12
  Suze: And I've written in the Ultimate Retirement Guide for 50+
• 18:17
  Suze: that as you're getting older, those are the things that
