À propos de ce contenu audio

How Money Really Works is a personal finance and financial systems podcast explaining what’s actually happening behind your paycheck, bank account, debt, investments, and the global economy.

Most people are taught how to budget—but not how money works. This podcast explores personal finance through history, the psychology of money, and the hidden mechanics of the modern financial system so you can finally understand the forces shaping your financial life.

Each episode blends financial history, behavioral finance, neuroscience of money, and clear, practical explanations of how money really moves through banks, markets, credit, inflation, and debt. You’ll learn:

  • How money evolved from barter to banking to digital currency
  • How banks create money and why debt runs the system
  • How inflation, interest rates, and credit actually affect you
  • Why financial crises, bubbles, and crashes keep repeating
  • How fear, greed, and social pressure drive markets
  • How the brain processes risk, reward, and financial loss
  • How incentives quietly shape the entire financial system

This isn’t a stock-tip podcast or a motivational finance show. It’s a story-driven guide to how the financial system works, money behavior, financial decision-making, and understanding the machinery behind modern life.

If you’re interested in personal finance, financial education, how money works, behavioral economics, psychology of money, banking, investing, inflation, financial history, and finally making sense of a confusing system—this podcast is for you.

How Money Really Works Because understanding money is the first step to controlling it.
