730. Personal Finance...A Harm reduction Approach w/ Kara Perez
Published 5 months, 1 week ago
Description
In this episode of the Earn and Invest podcast, host Doc G sits down with Kara Perez, a financial educator, founder of Cara Explores Money, and author of Money for Change. Perez, who successfully paid off $25,000 in student loan debt on a modest salary, joins the show to explore the intersection between the Financial Independence (FI) movement and environmentalism. She argues that true sustainability isn't about buying expensive eco-friendly products; instead, it looks a lot like what lower-income individuals already do out of necessity, such as upcycling, repairing items, and using what you already have rather than buying new.
