Broke millineal
If one thing’s become an apparent in the age of the Internet, it’s that being an Adult™ is super confusing, especially when it comes to money. Money is a crucial part of all our lives, but most of us were simply not taught how to handle it effectively. Our lack of knowledge can potentially lead to serious financial hardships down the line. To make matters worse, gen z and millennials are often shamed for not knowing how to do “simple” things like filing a tax return (as if we chose to take two different kinds of Algebra instead of practical math).
That’s why Erin Lowry created the blog Broke Millennial—it’s a resource for college students, recent graduates, and young adults in general to consult for advice having to do with money. Broke Millennial talks about all things finances, from getting out of your parent’s house post-graduation to finding a side-hustle to make some extra cash. It is one of the best resources out there for learning about the financial details we aren’t yet privy to. It can mean the difference between you having a tough time figuring things out on your own or navigating the adult scene comfortably with the information you’ve been armed with.
