Feeling overwhelmed by budgeting, saving, or Investing and tired of hearing advice that doesn’t fit real life? In this episode of Ditch the Suits, Travis Maus answers some of the most common Money questions people actually search for, from how to build a realistic budget and emergency fund, to deciding whether you should invest, pay off debt, or ignore the Crypto hype altogether. You’ll learn how compound interest really works, how to think about retirement accounts without the jargon, and why financial progress isn’t about perfection, it’s about making smart decisions at every stage of life. No scare tactics, no sales pitches, just practical guidance for everyday people who want to get more out of their money and life.
Based on lessons learned during the 2008 Financial Crisis and extensive professional experience, Ditch the Suit’s was a response to the panic induced by the COVID-19 Financial Crisis, where a collision of social fear and financial volatility, fueled by the politicization of nearly every issue, seemed to tip the world upside down. With the goal to help people avoid making financially destructive decisions, co-hosts Travis Maus and Steve Campbell produced daily recordings on a wide range of topics, such as staying positive, understanding the financial impact of new legislation, how to take advantage of the stock market when it crashes, blocking out fear-mongering, etc. which eventually gave way to the creation of the Ditch the Suits Podcast.
Ditch the Suits has become more than a podcast – it’s become a movement. Travis and Steve share their experiences and industry insights in order to help you make one good financial decision after another.
Their listeners know they will hear things from us that no one else is willing to tell them!
