For the Finance Wiz

“Planet Money” from NPR

As a business person, it’s important for you to not only understand your business and local economic situation but also what’s going on in the larger national economy too. While this may not always be the most interesting topic, “Planet Money” seeks to explain our economy in an easily-understandable, engaging way. More recent episodes explore the obstacles facing many public universities or the ever-growing challenge of being a truck driver in the U.S. By understanding what’s going on at a larger economic scale, you’ll be able to make more informed decisions for your business’s future.
