The A$k My Mom Podcast
At the Ask My Mom Podcast it is our goal to share all the things you didn't learn, or may have missed, that will help you move into your future with financial security and success. So many young adults fall into the debt spiral early in life and don't know the strategies to save or how to plan their spending to reach a level of financial security their peers may have. We often say on the podcast that it does not matter how much money you have, it is how you mange it that counts. We truly believe this statement and with just a little planning, you can have confidence in your finances at any income level. Having the information we share on the podcast puts you on the path to financial freedom.
If you have a question about something you didn't learn in school, then chances are someone else has that same question. WRITE IN to the pod at askmymompod@gmail.com.
