Why is talking about money and class so awkward?!

How to Be a Better Human

How often do you know your friends’ exact salaries? For most of us, the answer is almost never.

How can we cohabitate knowing that in class, we are unequal? And does being rich make you a bad person? Host of the podcast Classy, Jonathan Menjivar, and Chris Duffy break down the answers in this episode.
