Summary
We’re kicking off the week by answering listener questions! And if you have a question that you’d like for us to answer on the show, we’d love for you to submit your own via HowToMoney.com/ask/ , send us your voice memo. Regardless of how random or bizarre you might think it is, we want to hear it!
1 - My daughter doesn’t like the helmet I bought for her that was on clearance - frugal or cheap?
2 - How do I overcome some awkwardness as my partner and I combine our finances?
3 - Should I be looking to just get the match or should I max out my employer provided 401k?
4 - Does it make more sense for an older family member to draw on retirement accounts before social security?
5 - Is using a balance transfer credit card a good idea for a large expense I have coming up?
