Description

When she was in high school Sara Rathner knew she wanted to be a journalist. But it wasn’t until after she graduated from Northwestern University and working at The Washington Post that the “money light” flipped on for her. (It helped that her mother was sending her books written by personal finance expert Suze Orman.)  Now a senior writer, credit card expert, and spokesperson for Nerdwallet, Sara shares:
  - How growing up in Miami is not what most people think
  - The rationale behind her 20 credit cards
  - Why “money TOTALLY buys happiness”
  - An underrated 1980’s finance film she loves the most

Opening clip – “Casablanca”
