Brilliant advice! I have listened to literally hundreds of money “experts” - the information Katie provides is a unique perspective, and one that totally makes sense and provides me with money hope and a solid money plan. Thank you Katie!

I’m a new listener, and a new active “follower” of Money With Katie on IG. I’m a 27 year old corporate girlie who is interested in learning more personal finance and just finance in general, and was seeking a podcast that had more conversational depth and nuance than the other millennial financial “girl boss” podcasts I was listening to. Don’t get me wrong, I love an advice episode that gives you the set up on how to invest and actionable steps on how to meet your financial goals, but I was just bored! One day I just decided to give this podcast a listen after seeing Katie post something about it on her IG stories. Fast forward a few days and I’ve already consumed about 10 episodes in a 4 days, even played some episodes at the gym because I was so interested in these types of conversations around money and the nuances of it in our American culture, and gender and different socioeconomic classes. Also generational. Each episode feels like I’m attending a crash course, or a lecture (in a good way!! I promise) on a very niche and particular subject, and Katie tackles it with so much nuance leaving a lot of room for thought. She poses questions and concepts, backed by both experts and studies. She is also not scared to be blunt about uncomfortable topics and statistics on shocking realities. She’s inclusive and very self aware of her privilege, and honestly it is so refreshing to hear. Also the sound engineering is amazing, so shout out to that team as well! If you’ve read this far, and are on the fence about listening- do it! Just pick an episode with a title you find most interesting. You won’t regret it! If anything, you’ll learn a bunch and leave the conversation with new insights and perspectives. :)

I’d consider myself financially savvy and “seasoned” with a deeper understanding of financial know-how and investment strategies. Even so, I still benefit from all the golden nuggets that Katie puts out in her vast array of content. She’s wise beyond her years and equally helpful in sharing her bits of wisdom. With investing and finances, it’s a journey and Katie acts as a helpful guide and sherpa to help others up that financial summit. Thank you for all that you do and the fantastic content you put out - much appreciated 🙏

Katie casually said, (roughly) “millionaire next door surveyed baby boomers!” Said like it was obvious. It is. And I never connected the two. I knew that what worked then doesn’t work now, but I have never been able to pin point the exact reason WHY. Katie so succinctly summarized the entire difference in one, almost so obvious it seemed like she doubts whether is had to be actually articulated, remark. So obvious and yet so impactful for me! I am a Gen X-er (yeah 1976 Mrs. Katie!) so I was fed the diet of live beneath your means and you’ll be rich forever. It’s awesome (oh yeah- 90’s lingo!) to hear you make those observations and bring me along! Love the podcast and content. Keep up the great work!

I love love love this podcast! Insightful & honest.

This has become one of my favorite finance podcasts. I’m loving the investigative journalist style depth and research. Katie discusses and teaches about current issues that effect women and society in a way that I’ve not heard in any other finance podcast. I’m sure this podcast, and Katie herself will get bigger.

She makes sure that everything is thoroughly researched and provides the nuances around each subject, which can be so rare in the financial space!

Katie provides a new and refreshing voice to the financial advice space. She has the ability to give a humorous perspective in some episodes and also dive into heavy, and often complicated, issues with a respectful and curious mindset. Her episode on the Low Wage Cycle shifted my perspective on my own situation with expensive childcare in the US. I have learned more from her podcast, Instagram, and blog than my MBA. I share this podcast with my family and friends often!

Katie you are the every(rich)girl in the best way— you have a relatable past, relatable tastes, even a relatable name. But sometimes you are strikingly reflective, balanced, and eloquent!! This is why you and your show are gems!! Keep brainstorming both practical and deep topics— you cover both very well!

I teach a financial literacy class to high schoolers and Med school students. I like Katie’s fresh approach, and accurate assessments. I recommend all students follow her!

I always learn something new. Katie is intelligent and asks great questions for her competent guests. She has a fun sense of humor and honestly, she does her research and gets to the bottom of things.

Theories are ideas to account for a situation or justify a course of action. Narratives form around these theories. Katie and her team are speaking to the heart of working, middle class Americans (and yes! Also looking at you, all you “work-horse-rich” docs, lawyers, etc.!) Don’t think just b/c you’re work horse wealthy that you aren’t middle class - high-end middle class….yes! But still middle class. Just imagine how much larger your “piece of the pie” would be as well if $$$ was redistributed equitably… not equally!!! EQUITABLY 🙌🏼 My perspective: I am a nurse - we focus on Evidence Based Practice. Components of EBP: 1) Best Available Evidence (research; stats) 2) Clinician Knowledge and Skills (experiences; what do we do and see?) 3) Patient Wants and Needs (Granted these factors are impacted by insurance companies - they really make everything more complicated for patients and providers; nightmare!) I think a version of EPB needs to infiltrate economics and business and I think this is what Money w Katie is accomplishing! We don’t pay attention to people and circumstances when discussing the market. It’s not simply “supply and demand.” There are so many deeper layers!

MWK is the most relevant and relatable financial content on the interwebs for millennials. She hilariously tackles the difficult topics facing millennials and gen z and our futures when it comes to all things finance: homes, jobs, offspring (mostly dogs), etc. She challenges the bootstrap status quo with evidence that maybe other mindsets and cultures (dare I even say within socialist countries) are doing something better, while giving us tools, ideas, and new paradigms to make things better for ourselves in the US.

Love Money with Katie! To me, she is the most relatable finance influencer as I am also a 20 something female. I like the previous format of longer episodes a bit better but I will listen to it all no matter the format! Thank you Katie and team!

One thing I enjoy most about Katie’s approach is her obsessiveness over topics that causes her to do deep dives. I think this provides a well thought out, well-researched point of view that is both educational and fascinating. As I get older and financial security becomes more important to me than it ever has before, she provides information in a way that is somehow not boring and stodgy. I recommend this podcast to all my friends.

I’ve been following Katie’s work for a few years and am continually impressed by her willingness to deeply consider social context. She is smart, and her perspective and candor are funny and kind. Her ideas and what she shares are thoroughly researched and data driven. Love to see and hear her voice in this space!

I thought I had my retirement plans in decent shape until I started listening to Money with Katie. She explains complex and boring topics in a way that is so entertaining and motivating. This podcast has changed the way I think about retirement and how I plan for it. She covers so many relevant topics, like how to manage finances as you approach marriage (me this year). And she’s funny!! I look forward to episodes each week.

I love Katie’s no-nonsense take on all things personal finance. She offers insightful deep dives into systems of inequality and oppression and personal finance best practices, and does it with humor and even some sass. Very well done!

Katie and her team do a fabulous job breaking down large topics into bite-size pieces of information. I truly do appreciate all the research that goes into the show! PS, thank you for the dividends income show!!!

I listened to one episode and couldn’t stop listening. I have been sending Money with Katie Episodes to my husband, sister, and friends to help them in certain situations like starting a job, or preparing for a layoff. LOVE this show!

I love having them separated out. I’m using them as a tactic to get my friends into the show and with the short format I’ve gotten a few hooked!

This show is always well researched and is honestly a breath of fresh air. Some have complained that it’s “woke,” but maybe they’re confused about what actual well researched and peer reviewed topics and arguments sound like. Katie has just the right amount of spunk for my personal finance liking.

I have been an avid listener to Katie after hearing her on Jason Tartick’s podcast. I have never felt more empowered and motivated to learn about finance. She eloquently breaks down complex personal finance topics and makes them entertaining! A huge thank you to Katie for enhancing my knowledge and understanding of topics that will help me navigate this world! Your impact on my life will surely compound over time (hehe)!

The amount of time and energy that goes into each episode never fails to amaze me. Katie and her team break complex topics down to such digestible content with wit and humor sprinkled throughout. I never thought I’d enjoy listening to a podcast about an otherwise boring topic.
