You’ve probably heard the age-old arguments. Old dude on the radio says “all debt is bad.” Your savvy neighbor says that there’s “good debt” and “bad debt.” You watch relatives YOLO with credit cards. Where’s the line, REALLY? Today we’ll ask three people who are good with money: contributors Paula Pant from the Afford Anything podcast and Len Penzo from LenPenzo.com are joined by great saver AND blogger Lance Cothern from the Money Manifesto blog. Plus, we have to give a special shout-out to our celebrity reader Robert Farrington for reading today’s article. You can find more from Robert at his site, TheCollegeInvestor.com We’ll dive into the good, bad and ugly of debt.
BUT that’s not all. On today’s Friday Fintech segment we’ll learn about a new company called Nestegg helping small landlords compete with the big kids. How does it work? We’ll all find out together.
Of course, we’ll still have our trivia challenge, answer a MagnifyMoney.com call for help, and more! Enjoy!
Thanks for tuning in this week!
