What’s up with credit unions?! We often suggest them here on the show but we’ve never fully explained what credit unions are and why it is that you need one in your life- it’s time to remedy that problem! We dive into the history of credit unions and why we think there is a fair amount of confusion around them. Are they even legit? There are some serious advantages and so we dive into why it is that credit unions are excellent institutions and how it is that you should utilize their offerings. But we’re also telling the full story and we explain why you shouldn’t be ditching your online bank- credit unions are great, but they’re not perfect.

Additional links from this episode:

  • To find a local credit union near you, head to MyCreditUnion.gov
  • With a one time donation of $5, you can meet the eligibility requirements of online credit unions like Alliant, Blue, and Consumers Credit Union– just be sure to check the rates on their products before joining!

There are a number of confusing things in life- for some it’s deciphering the latest Christopher Nolan film, for others it might be the process of building whatever is in that flat pack box from Ikea. But what about taxes? They can also be a puzzling topic and we also tend to have some janky tax ideas in our brains. Unfortunately, those ideas are often what we base our decisions on if we don’t have a tax professional in our life. So our goal for this episode is to clear up some more common tax misconceptions out there and to make sure that we’re all making decisions based on what’s true instead of based on a video that someone made on TikTok, or what we heard a friend say. 37 0
