How Our Banking System Keeps Americans Poor

Uncover how the banking system is structured to profit immensely from consumer ignorance and debt. This enlightening episode delves into the predatory practices of credit card companies and banks that thrive on high-interest rates and excessive fees, turning ordinary financial behaviors into profit centers. Here's what we cover: Credit Card Debt Trap: Learn why credit card companies label customers who pay off their balances each month as 'deadbeats' and how the average American household with credit card debt ends up paying a staggering amount in interest over decades.

Using the System to Your Advantage: We discuss strategies for turning these exploitative practices to your benefit, including smart credit card use and wise banking to avoid unnecessary fees and interest.
