Millennial Money

Millennials face an unprecedented financial landscape in modern life. We’ve been told all along there are financial markers to being a grown-up: owning a home, having kids, traveling, having some kind of social life. But for many millennials, lots of those things feel well out of reach. We’re fumbling through a brand new version of adulthood, but how do we navigate that without being stressed about finances all the time? Business reporter Ghada Alsharif speaks to fellow millennials about their relatable financial dilemmas, then brings it all straight to an expert to work out some options, because money is more than numbers on a spreadsheet. This is your life. And we’re talking about it, here on Millennial Money.
