This Week: October 24th, 2017

On today’s show Kate Archer Kent and I discussed WalletHub’s rating of the financially-savviest states, using a Roth IRA and a Roth 401k, filling out the FAFSA, and deciding between cable and satellite for your TV programming needs.

Some of the websites we mentioned:

The FAFSA
Calculating the Expected Family Contribution for financial aid
Student loan information
Inherited IRA RMD calculator
Find your FICO score (and how to improve it)
Take the CFPB’s e-mail course Get a Handle on Debt Bootcamp

That's all for now. Send your questions and comments to [email protected], contact me directly at [email protected], or use our online contact form. Until next time...

Spend less, have more!
