About this episode

We’re kicking off the week by answering your listener questions!

Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!

 

1 - Is it worth paying for Robinhood Gold in order to snag the higher match they offer on IRAs?

2 - Should my husband remove himself as an authorized user from his mom’s credit card that has a large balance, even if it’s his oldest line of credit?

3 - Does it make sense to switch to the new SAVE plan to save $6 a month if we’re expecting our incomes to rise?

4 - How can I find a decent $5,000 car- is it even possible?
