Finance for People with Paco de Leon
We are all weird about money. Whether you have a lot or a little, your feelings and beliefs about money have probably been shaped by a combination of silence (or even shame) around talking about money, personal experiences, family and societal expectations, and more. It's no surprise so many of us find it so difficult to save enough money (but way too easy to get trapped in ballooning credit card debt), emotionally draining to deal with student loans, and nearly impossible to understand the esoteric world of investing. If you feel unseen, ignored, or bored to death by the way personal finances are approached and taught, get ready to go on a journey of self-discovery and step into your financial power.
Finance for the People with Paco de Leon airs December 1st at 8:30pm, and December 2nd at 1:30pm on West TN PBS.
