Ever want to see how someone else lives and spends money? The Money Diaries, a wildly popular feature at Refinery29, digs into the personal lives of people who volunteer to share the details of their lives and expenses. What you find, are lots of lessons that now Work & Money editor Lindsey Stanberry has compiled and used as the basis for a new book which dishes out popular lessons on money, from setting a plan, to paying off debt, to insurances and investing. It’s all here and we’re excited that Lindsey is coming today to the basement to share some of the biggest lessons.
Plus, in our headlines segment, we’ll list off the 10 highest paying jobs in the USA. There might be some trends that you may want to explore if you’re looking for your next employment opportunity. We’ll also share lessons about other careers NOT listed among the top ten. Also, in our second headline, one big ETF company is cutting some funds from its lineup. Are you invested in any of them? Even if you’re not, what happens to the money from the investment, and what should you do if it happens to you in the future? We’ll share all of the details.
And of course, we’ll still have time for Doug’s trivia, throw out the Haven Life line, and answer your questions from the mailbag.
