Fintech One-on-One #414: Devin Miller & Suze Orman of SecureSave

Fintech Nexus

This country has a savings problem. We have heard it so many times: the average person cannot afford a $400 emergency expense. While fintech has made some inroads here the problem is worse that it has ever been. What we need is a fintech that is laser-focused on this problem, working to create a simple and effective solution to truly address it.
I am delighted to welcome my next guests on the Fintech One-on-One Podcast.
