So well researched and informative
This show quickly became by go-to for deep dives and interesting topics. Every topic is delivered respectfully and fairly, with deep research you can explore after.

Best finance podcast out there
Not boring topics or just getting lectured too. Katie takes a real deep dive into all layers and levels of finance. She also makes sure she isn’t shaming you and embracing very healthy saving and investing

Ignore the 1-star reviews: This show is SO SMART
The reviewers leaving a one-star review complaining that Katie has a political agenda are completely missing the point. No matter what your political view, if you’re interested in the bigger picture about money and personal finance, you’ll find that this podcast is full of some of the most interesting conversations out there Yes, finance is tied up in with the political, but as Katie points out to insist otherwise is a political statement too. I , for one, am loving the deeper investigation of the systems at work in our lives.

Finance and Everything
Thank goodness there’s women in the finance space. But the reason I kept listening (and continue to listen) are the continuous topic analysis about how finance affects…. Everything. THANK YOU.

Mind Blowing
I’ve been listening to this show for a couple years and her investigative episodes are getting more and more interesting. In fact, they are so well-told that it is changing my perspective on economics. Thank you for tackling such huge issues while still talking about ground-level, personal finance.

So great.
Longtime listener, first time commenter. Loved the most recent episode about the last 40 years. Great analysis, easy to understand and listen to, well researched, and ends on a (surprisingly!) positive note. Keep it up Katie!

Episode 211
Wow!!! I’ve been listening for years and have learned so much. Especially grateful for this episode and the cultural diversity peace. I love how it was discussed with ease and pride! Please keep this up. It’s a huge deal to be a first gen and learn money.

So Insightful
Katie is amazing at going deep on each and ever topic you can imagine and breaking down the information into such an admin format, you will be hooked after just one episode!

Thank u
Amazing, good production & you can tell there is a lot of thought in each episode. I am also learning a lot about finance as a woman in my late 20s with a spending issue who has only recently started saving $$ and needed to know about all of these things but didn't know where to start.

If you think this show is Marxist you’re missing the point
This is the single best podcast I have ever listened to in any genre. I have listened to every single episode, and never miss the weekly episodes. This show not only provides specific tactile personal finance recommendations, it analyzes our role in the systems we exist within that DIRECTLY impact our financial well being. It is an incredibly well researched show, and KGT is a powerhouse that represents the best of our generation’s thought leaders. You would be hard pressed to find a better podcast to fully understand not only your finances but the ways the world around you plays a part in your financial life, and what you can do within those systems to take control. If you come into this podcast with an *open mind*, you can glean incredibly useful life skills. Or you can get defensive, miss the point entirely, and write it off as Marxist. Your choice.

Political Podcast
Was something else at one time but it is now just something to surreptitiously draw you in and then sell you a political message

Now is Out of touch and biased
Former long time lister. I am still a listener. But it’s so hard to take any of her advice seriously when she backs one political party (and gives absolutely no counter arguments by economists to the other side). What a bummer

Such an important podcast
As a millennial, middle class woman I am not “rich” or wealthy, but so much of this content is valuable, informative, and highly engaging to me. If you want an approachable way to learn about managing your personal finances, as well as better understand the context in which macro-level systems impact our financial lives, check out this podcast. There is more great content on her instagram and newsletter as well. ✌️

Thank you!
I’m new to investing and this podcast is so helpful. It has taught me so much about the world of finance and made it feel so much more approachable for me. It’s empowering and helpful and funny. I’m so grateful I found this show. Thank you!!

Out of touch
I used to love listening to this podcast but Katie has become so grossly out of touch that I just can’t anymore. She used to be someone who was inspired and wanted to help, not she is saying all sorts of ridiculous stuff about how we shouldn’t expect our quality of life to get better when we get a new job or raise (which is insane because her own lifestyle has multiplied dramatically over the last three years) and being part of morning brew has just made her way too political. She’s just a shill for this idea that the economy and job market aren’t actually bad.

Thank you Katie & Hannah
I’ve been following Katie for about two years now, I have listened to all her podcasts and I appreciate the depth in which her research is shown in the many episodes (including the rich girl round ups) to come with a sound and fact-based recommendation on a certain topic. The episode of Whole Life Insurance was a great one! Thank you for making this complicated journey of financial independence interesting and fun at the same time.

Long time rich girl
I can’t believe I’m only just writing a review now, I’ve been following Katie since the inception of MWK. This it’s real down to earth money talk we all need to be having and exploring to demystify the world of finance to us peasants. Katie you need to make a whole class for teens so we can finally spit out the generation of financially literate youth america needs. Anyhow. Katie taught me everything I know. I tell all my friends about you. Big fan 5 stars so you can sleep well tonight.

First- Gen problems
I absolutely loved this episode with Berna. She speaks all facts. I’ve recently stopped guilting myself into living for my mom or going beyond my discussed financial support for my younger sibling who lives in the Caribbean and does not work. This content and Berna is pure Gold.

Sound
I have been listening to this podcast on and off, whenever there is a subject that is relevant and it is amazing how Katie manages to find subjects which are relevant.
The show about Life insurance hits a spot. I was sold a similar life insurance over 10 years ago, a policy similar to what you guest was sold, it was put on automatic withdrawal from my bank account and I completely forgot about it (this is due to my money dysmorphia issues), meanwhile I have always had the uneasy feeling that I had been taken for a ride.
Your show basically confirmed my feelings.
I know now that I have to do something about it.
Thank you and thank your for the education.

Great podcast but…
Been listening for years and really love this podcast…however lately there’s been a shift where completely skewed one sided feminist ideology is being pushed…I truly hope this is not the direction you guys will be taking this wonderful show in the future…I sincerely thank you otherwise for great content and wish you all the best…take care.

Best personal finance podcast out there!
For the past 5 years I’ve been listening to all different personal finance podcasts trying to learn how to manage my new physician salary responsibly after growing up in poverty and learning nothing about personal finance. At this point I am far beyond the basics and even got rid of my financial advisor who couldn’t tell me anything I haven’t taught myself. I stopped listening to most of the other podcasts because they became repetitive and no longer helpful, but I have continued listening to this one religiously because it is so thoughtful, well-researched, relevant, and I love Katie’s writing style (also the only newsletter I actually read top to bottom). I love her book suggestions, too. I even started following her on Insta and find her even more endearing now after learning more about her as a person. Katie and Henah you are both doing an amazing job and really changing the financial lives of so many women (and all your other listeners, too!). Can’t wait to see what you do next!

Richer by Association
I just wanted to say thank you to Katie and everyone that participates in the creation of this show. I’m 43 and have $100,000 in student loan debt and only earned $24,000 last year through working a full time job , a part time job, and teaching a few yoga classes as a side hustle. I’m also in graduate school with 2 years left (meaning more student loans to come). I have no retirement, no investments, and no credit cards. I do not enjoy my life as it is.
Listening to this podcast has helped me better understand the mechanism of my personal financial situation as it relates to larger concepts. I’ve been living in the American Dream that seems to fuel class separation — “You can have stability and happiness if you just work hard enough”. Katie’s delivery of the info makes it palatable and digestible . To the extent that I’ve begun to learn more on my own and have made a few decisions to realign my financial path with what’s actually available to me right now. I don’t think I could have done that if I hadn’t come across this podcast.

I’ve never been more obsessed with a show
I came across Money with Katie after her collab with Kate Kennedy and I fell deeply and madly in love with this podcast. I recently graduated with my PhD and have loved this practical education about money now that I’m making more than 25k as a grad student (yay). Money with Katie has taught me so much about wealth building, taxes, and investments while giving me time to think about my own financial goals for by myself and my growing family. Could not recommend this podcast more for both those who are starting from square one in their personal finance journey and those who are already in deep. Very delighted to have discovered the Rich Girls and Boys community!
