"Poverty, By America" Audiobook Review

by Kyle Burbank
It's been a while since I've reviewed a book for this site. To a point, that's because books about finance often cover the same few topics, making them harder to assess on my part. In turn, I'm always excited to find a book that fits into my wheelhouse but does something different. Luckily, I found that in the recently-released Poverty, By America from author Matthew Desmond. While I wasn't 100%...

Money at 30: Rocket Money Review

by Kyle Burbank
There are times when I download an app on my phone... and let it sit there for months before I truly dive into it. Admittedly, that's exactly what happened with Rocket Money.

Does the Apple Card Belong In Your Wallet? (2023 Review)

by Kyle Burbank
In 2019, Apple announced what many had suspected: it was releasing its own credit card. While Goldman Sachs would be the ones actually issuing the product, the card would combine the user-friendly tech and stylish aesthetic that the company’s many raving fans have grown accustomed to.
