Do you want to have a more lighthearted relationship with money? Want to learn the integral concepts about money in one single book? Then listen to this episode as I interview for the second time my friend Emily Guy Birken about her new book “Stacked: Your Super Serious Guide to Modern Money Management”. We chat about investing for retirement vs saving for retirement, disability insurance, inflation, and learning as you go with compassion, grace, and humor.
“Saving for retirement is giving something up in order to get something later while investing for retirement sounds more like an opportunity rather than some kind of deprivation.” - Emily Guy Birken
