About this episode

There are a lot of sneaky fees in bank accounts and credit cards. Basically anywhere a sneaky fee can be, it’s going to be. One of the primary reasons for staying on top of your money every week is the chance to spot these fees because many of them you can avoid paying. The savings you find, while it might only be a few dollars here and there, can actually radically change how fast you hit your money goals.

Our guest, Paul Kasserwani from Cushion.ai, is here to share the top five sneaky bank and credit card fees you need to know, what to do about them, and how they can transform your finances.
