'Money, Explained' Netflix Review: Stream It Or Skip It?
The latest in Vox Media’s Explained series, Money, Explained is a five-episode guide to what we do with our money these days, and why we spend it (or waste it) in the ways we do.
Opening Shot: “Scrolling through social media, there are lots of people offering secrets to make money quick,” says narrator Tiffany Haddish as we see animated get-rich-quick social media posts fly by.

Millennial Money: A flashy credit card may not fit you best | The Sumter Item
The credit card you pluck out of your wallet can make as much of a statement as the purse or pants you keep your wallet in. With cards touting sleek metal designs, luxury perks and loyalty program status upgrades, simply carrying a flashy card can make you look like the kind of person who has access to whatever it is they hide behind velvet ropes.
Brand recognition is big, and credit card companies benefit from loyalty and familiarity (sometimes you can benefit from loyalty, too — more on that later). Depending on what you need out of a credit card, though, the option that looks impressive may actually leave you wanting more. It can pay to be practical and even consider a card you may not have heard of before, or carry multiple cards at once for different types of purchases.

Joe Biden is at it again, throwing stimulus money around as if it were candy, attempting to buy good will (and perpetual votes) wherever he can.

A stack of a TRILLION $1 dollar bills would be 68,000 miles high (FYI…outer space is generally believed to begin 62 miles above the earths' surface)
