Nothing To Smile About: When Debt Costs You Dental Visits
5/21/202638 min
The dentist can be spenny, but necessary. So what happens when you can’t afford an appointment? And what if your treatment is kinda important or worse… urgent?
This week on Friday Drinks, we discuss a Money Dilemma that questions whether we can ever really afford to miss health-related appointments when we’re in debt.
We also answer a DM that’s all about diversification and whether buying diversified ETFs is enough. If you’ve been afraid to ask the question or considering how to diversify your portfolio, this episode’s for you.
