Ever wanted someone to sit you down and calmly explain the ins and outs of personal finance in just a few minutes? Well, look no further, Chris Browning is the man for you! Chris is the creator of the wildly popular financial podcast, Popcorn Finance, a podcast which is dedicated to helping you understand your finances better in about the time it takes to make a bag of popcorn. After shelving the idea for his podcast for three years, he finally decided to turn his fantasy into a reality when he realized that most millennials were struggling with cripplingly credit card debt, bad saving habits, and a serious lack of financial literacy. His podcast offers an array of different series, such as Popping with F.I.R.E, Back to School Series, Investing 101, Side Hustle Series, and Tiny Living Series, which focus on different ways you can gain financial independence and money wellness. During the day Chris works as an Analyst, but at night, he shares his passion for teaching and discussing personal finance to listeners just like you. He has been featured on CNBC, Nerdwallet, Pennyhoader, Investopedia, and Vice and Popcorn Finance is frequently credited with being one of the Top Ten Financial Podcasts available worldwide.
