Queer Money®: How Gay People Do Money

How do you save for tomorrow yet still have a life today? This is an important but delicate balance!

We spoke at the ReachingOut MBA or ROMBA conference in Chicago last month and one of the attendees asked us this very same question, and we think it’s a great topic for this show.

This is Queer Money episode #452, and today, we’re sharing how you can balance the needs for tomorrow with the desires and needs for today as part of our ongoing financial well-being series sponsored by Capital One.
