No Budget Needed w/ Dana Miranda #914

For this episode we might need to adopt a new, honorary name for our podcast – maybe How NOT to Money since this is going to feel at odds with what we typically discuss here on the show! And that’s because ‘budgeting’ is almost synonymous with ‘building wealth’ and living the kind of life you want, but our guest today is offering an alternative to traditional personal finance advice in favor of empowering and flexible strategies. We’re joined by Dana Miranda, author of the new book “You Don’t Need A Budget” which comes out later this month. Dana is a Certified Educator in Personal Finance and is a contributor to the NYT, The Penny Hoarder, and The Motley Fool just to name a few. She is all about building a financial life that works for you as an individual – she’s flipping the personal finance script, ditching the budget, and reimagining your relationship to money entirely, enjoy!
