Life isn’t just expensive — it’s strategically expensive. From college debt to first apartments, weddings, babies, buying homes, midlife career chaos, and finally retirement, every life phase hits your wallet harder than the last.
In this episode of Everyone’s Talkin’ Money, Shari breaks down the five (plus!) biggest financial phases you'll face — and how to survive each one without spiraling into panic mode.
You’ll learn:
How to avoid student loan traps and budget through the broke college years
Why your first paycheck isn’t as big as it looks — and how to adult without going broke
The real cost of weddings, homes, and babies (hint: it’s more than your Pinterest board thinks)
How to financially prepare for midlife chaos — career pivots, aging parents, and rising healthcare costs
Why retirement isn’t a finish line — it’s a decades-long phase you need to plan for now
Whether you’re knee-deep in bills, spotting life changes on the horizon, or helping someone else navigate their journey, this episode is your practical guide to building financial confidence through every stage.
Tune in, take notes, and share with a friend who needs a financial BFF in their corner.
Because no one should go through these expensive phases alone.
