If you’re tired of being broke, Erin Lowry is coming to save you today. Erin’s the author of the new hit book Broke Millennial, and shares stories about examining your past, focusing on your tendencies, and then going on the offensive with your debt.
In our headlines segment, Brittney Burgett from Haven Life joins us to talk about how expensive parenting has become. She’ll share some tips for parents about priorities and protecting your biggest asset: your time.
Plus, we throw out the Haven Life line to Andy, who’s wonders about international funds. We answer a letter about student loans with some help from Adam Carroll.
