How the Economy Really Works, with Kyla Scanlon

Today on The Wallet, Emilie Bellet is joined by Kyla Scanlon, recognised by Fast Company as ‘the internet’s favourite econ nerd.’ Kyla’s new book, "In This Economy?", equips readers with the tools to understand the economy and its impact on their finances. In this episode, we discuss misconceptions about the economy, the concept of "vibecessions," and how personal financial decisions fit into the broader economic context. Kyla also shares insights on improving financial literacy and practical tips for making smarter financial decisions.
