“I just wanted to say thank you to Katie and everyone that participates in the creation of this show. I’m 43 and have $100,000 in student loan debt and only earned $24,000 last year through working a full time job , a part time job, and teaching a few yoga classes as a side hustle. I’m also in graduate school with 2 years left (meaning more student loans to come). I have no retirement, no investments, and no credit cards. I do not enjoy my life as it is.
Listening to this podcast has helped me better understand the mechanism of my personal financial situation as it relates to larger concepts. I’ve been living in the American Dream that seems to fuel class separation — “You can have stability and happiness if you just work hard enough”. Katie’s delivery of the info makes it palatable and digestible . To the extent that I’ve begun to learn more on my own and have made a few decisions to realign my financial path with what’s actually available to me right now. I don’t think I could have done that if I hadn’t come across this podcast.”
