On this week’s special Rich Girl Roundtable with Berna Anat: Traditional financial advice isn’t “one size fits all,” and that’s especially true for first-gen Americans who face unique challenges around building wealth and supporting family.

Rich Girl Roundup is Money with Katie's weekly segment where Katie and her Executive Producer Henah answer your burning money questions. Each month, we'll put out a call for questions on her Instagram (@moneywithkatie). New episodes every week.

In 2019, I read Ramit Sethi’s bestseller I Will Teach You to Be Rich for the first time—and it was nothing short of revelatory for me. Since then, Ramit’s work has focused more directly on a specific aspect of money management: couples. I’ve always found navigating this topic to be a challenge, because the most common problems are relational questions, not financial ones. Ahead of his new book release, Money for Couples (out 12/31), Ramit joins me today to discuss how you can make your relationship with money feel amazing, particularly if you’re partnered.

Rich Guy Ryan's girlfriend just got a raise, and they're interested in opening an IRA for her to begin investing—but stocks keep hitting new all-time highs, making him nervous that a correction is coming. Should they wait it out for the next bear market to start investing, or get in now? Plus, how to check your investments for weapons manufacturers and privatized prisons, and a wheels-off job posting that launders unrealistic expectations in the language of Hustle Bro nonsense.

How have the last 40 years of American history—starting from the Reagan era—delivered us to where we are today? Today, we'll explore Reaganomics and its continued implications on the economy, what Bidenomics really was (versus what it attempted to be), and what we’re likely to see over the next four years under a second Trump presidency. I also wanted to dig into some of the questions I’ve received since the election about whether our individual strategies need to shift.

At her career’s height, Lacy was earning more than a million dollars per year (!) as an executive at a major bank. Then, one early morning, Lacy woke up and realized she was unable to hear anything in her left ear, experiencing something called sudden sensorineural hearing loss. She feared the worst: Her career, as she knew it, was over. Fortunately, Lacy had purchased a valuable insurance policy a decade earlier. And you don’t have to be pulling down seven figures like Lacy to benefit in the same way.

In our "money dysmorphia" episode, a theme emerged that I wanted to revisit: Money anxiety increasing with income, not decreasing. While most of us are probably familiar with the law of diminishing marginal returns and accept that after a certain point, money won’t make us any happier, the idea that money could make us actively unhappier is pretty antithetical to the entire capitalist enterprise. So to get the inside track, we invited Clay Cockrell, a therapist for the ultra high-net worth, to talk through some theories about why someone might experience enhanced anxiety as they ascend the income ladder—and what it might mean you need to do next.

If you’ve ever found yourself feeling skeptical about capitalism (or the idea that its current iteration is the best and only economic system worthy of our attention), this episode is for you.  My guest, Grace Blakeley, recently published a book called Vulture Capitalism in which she tees up what we fundamentally misunderstand about capitalism and knocks down the many half-truths that enable the status quo's most powerful narratives.

For the first time ever, we're updating an episode we did back in 2022, all about money management systems. I’m detailing the two-track approach I recommend to hit your financial goals with minimal stress, because by taking advantage of the two big As—Automation and Amortization—you can put your financial life on the third A (Autopilot).

One listener reached out to ask, "If I know I'm getting an inheritance, how can I ask my parents for it earlier? It'll go further now in my 30s than later."

We unquestioningly repeat the knowledge that index funds are the easiest way to “passively” build wealth. But what happens when too many investors go passive? Is this the most “benevolent bubble” in history? (Fair warning: That description is hyperbolic.) In this week’s solo expedition, I attempt to make sense of these claims—and what it would mean if they’re true.

Traditional retirement advice often suggests balancing stocks and bonds as you near retirement—but as two Rich Girls pointed out, bonds seemingly don’t have great returns. So are they still worthwhile? And if so, should you buy them? Plus, we respond to some critical feedback we received.

If we’re talking about negotiating for higher income without talking about labor organizing, we’re outright ignoring one of the most powerful determinants of how people are paid. This week on the show, you’ll hear from two people: an anonymous 20-year veteran of publicly traded, multinational corporate human relations who believes the “at-will employment” structure in the US is the core of our systemic insecurity, as well as renowned labor journalist Hamilton Nolan, who advocates tirelessly for union density as the best way forward.  Transcripts, show notes, production credits, and more can be found at: https://moneywithkatie.com/unions.

Hey everyone! Just caught the latest episode of "The Money with Katie Show" and I have to say, it was incredibly insightful. Katie really knows how to break down complex financial topics into easy-to-understand nuggets of wisdom. In this episode, she tackled the importance of emergency funds and how to build one even on a tight budget. Her tips on cutting down unnecessary expenses were on point and I've already started implementing a few of them. https://500px.com/p/wax-paperie I've been following the show for a while now, and I must say, each episode brings something new and valuable to the table. Whether you're a financial newbie or someone looking to fine-tune their money management skills, Katie's show has got you covered. Plus, the guest interviews are always a treat – real stories from real people who've achieved financial success. https://dribbble.com/Wax-Paperie/about

I really enjoy the Money with Katie show, but I was disappointed that this show was so unnecessarily slanted towards women. From personal experience I can tell you that men need prenups at least as much as wonen.
