Description

“What I like the most about personal finance is actually not the money moving around. It’s what you can learn about people.”

As a longtime host and senior editor at Marketplace, David Brancaccio has covered some of the most important financial stories of the past four decades. An award-winning journalism career that has spanned TV, documentary filmmaking, and books began when he took his first job in radio at the age of 13. (Yes, really.)

From the Marketplace studios in New York City, David discusses:
  - How often he’s asked for financial advice
  - What he learned about money when he traveled across America researching his book Squandering Aimlessly: My Adventures in the American Marketplace
  - The important lesson William Shatner (aka, Captain Kirk) shared with him about debt
  - Why a side hustle in the hospitality industry is not out of the question
and much more.
