#11: Money Series Pt. 1: Debt.

The Gargoyles

Debt, almost a trigger word for some people. Whether you are a young student applying for colleges or a family person owning a house, most of us have had to deal with this in one way or another. The necessity of more money than our capital can offer is a reality most of us experience through many facets of our lives, taking many different shapes and languages depending on the specific needs we encounter. With our wonderful guest of the week Amos Margulies (a high school teacher with vast experience with recent immigrant students), we explore the complex topic of student loans and the importance of having a clear structure of a career path before taking such debts. In addition to that, we talk about credit, the most influential credit bureaus in the U.S., and the relationship they have with debts when assigning a credit score. We also explore a counter argument with Quanita Kendrick who has studied proven ways to create a lifestyle without depending on credit and debts despite our capitalist society. This is the first of three episodes where we are going to explore different aspects of money. Tune in next week when we talk about budgeting!
