Your World on Money - Behind the Scenes ...

About this episode

How do you improve your credit, your real estate savvy, your knowledge of taxes, your ability to budget and save, and more? You listen to shows like SB, watch YouTube, read books, and surround yourself with great people! A new series from Million Stories gives you ALL of those topics AND combines them in a humorous, fun, introductory way, and today we go behind the scenes to see how they made it! We speak to host Andini Makosinski who is NOT a money expert herself, so the series features her learning alongside off of the viewers. We'll share clips, talk about trying to make the often-dry topic of money exciting and fun and more.

In our headline segment, we share some new data from Vanguard Investments on 401k plans. How many people are using them? We'll dive into that AND help you get started using yours. 

Of course, we'll also share Doug's trivia, answer a call from help to the Haven Life line, and more. Enjoy!
