STOP THE POCKET WATCHING!!!

Spencer Pratt is firing back at folks who think he's bad with money ... and he's defending his much younger self for blowing through $10 million.

Spencer was on the "No Jumper" podcast when he took aim at critics bashing him for spending his own money back in the day ... saying every dollar he spent came from his "The Hills" paydays.
