Episode Summary:
In this week’s episode, we get chatty with Liz from LizGetsLoaded, the money kind of loaded. Liz describes herself as someone who likes to drink wine, spend money, and max out her tax-advantaged accounts. She started with a very pretty financial spreadsheet and then created an Instagram account to connect with other personal finance nerds, and now she has over 13K followers, a podcast, and a blog. Ultimately she enjoys nerding out about money with smart people, so that’s what we had the pleasure to do with Liz.
