What a special week. On Tuesday morning, I was scooped up in a large SUV to shoot millennial money segments at CNBC. While back stage I met Sue Herera (Nightly Business Report and Power Lunch) who gave me and my fellow panelist (Amanda Lott) some unsolicited parenting advice.

Monday night’s Nightly Business Report, which airs across the nation, debuted the three part CNBC special titled Millennials & Money, which I filmed back in May with Sharon Epperson.

Sharon Epperson of CNBC came by office with her wonderful director, Judy Gee, and crew to film an interview regarding financial issues facing millennials. We talked about millennial debt, investing[…]
The Millennial Generation is diversely one. I was reading an article on POPSUGAR titled Why Early-’80s Babies Are Different Than Other Millennials.
