There are so many ways to learn about personal finance these days – there are TV shows on it, books, online articles, and more! Here are some of the many ways you can get advice:
Podcasts
There are lots of podcasts of all different aspects of personal finance – from how to get out of debt to how to invest. If you’re the kind of person who wants to learn, but doesn’t have a ton of time to sit and read, then podcasts may be a great choice for you.
Personal Blogs
Personal finance is definitely a hot topic for personal blogs, and some have amassed quite a following! Some of them are from people who have professional training, whereas others are like me and just want to share the knowledge they have.
Books
I haven’t bought a ton of personal finance books, but I did enjoy “The Wealthy Barber” by Dave Chilton and “Millionaire Teacher” by Andrew Hallam. No links because I recommend you support a local bookstore or try your local library! They are both great books that explain a variety of personal finance issues in an easy-to-understand way.
TV Shows
As my husband can attest, I used to be addicted to “Til Debt Do Us Part” with Gail Vaz-Oxlade. She’s written a number of books as well and also hosted two other money-based TV Shows. She’s blunt and funny. Her shows give you a chance to watch how other people re-examine their spending habits and may encourage you to do the same thing yourself!
