    Should You Rent or Buy? The New Math.

    For many millennials, buying a home has become almost entirely out of reach.

Rent vs. Buying was a perfect addition

The episode on renting vs. buying was a great addition. I love that you hit on topics they impact our country and this one is one that is also causing a lot of Americans stress and lack of sleep. I throughly enjoyed this one!

Some episodes are presented in a silo ignoring salient facts

Overall, I find this an informative and enjoyable listen however, there are episodes presented with clear slants that ignore important factors that provide context to the subject matter. For example, a most recent episode, covered renting versus buying, and it was presented from a space of, as we stand currently in our economic climate it makes more more sense from millennials to rent versus by what it did not do was highlight what is driving those factors which would be extremely important to reinforce what is going on, it would be nice if they included the full context.

DealBook interview

I can’t believe they let this be published. Terrible interview. The journalist lost control in the first minute.
