Description

This podcast focuses on learning how to effectively manage both your money and your life. Importantly, it is done simply with real-life memorable examples rather than theory, numbers and lecture. It is built off of Cary Siegel's best selling books "Why didn't they teach me this in school? 99 personal money management principles to live by” and “Why didn’t they teach me this in school too? 99 life management principles to live by”. The goal is to motivate you to take control of both your finances and your life.
