Most of us were never taught how money actually works — and it costs us for the rest of our lives. In this episode, Jennifer Valoppi sits down with Jamie Byington, CPA, CFP, and longtime Women of Tomorrow board member, for a plain-English crash course in financial literacy every woman should hear.

Jamie spent 40+ years advising high-net-worth individuals and real estate developers at firms like Cherry Bekaert. Here, she breaks it all down — from your first paycheck to your retirement account.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

• Why you need a 3–6 month emergency fund — and where to keep it
• Budgeting apps that actually work (Rocket Money, EveryDollar, Greenlight)
• Credit scores demystified — and how to repair one that's been damaged
• Credit cards: when they help you, when they bury you
• Student loans, mortgages, and the truth about "good debt"
• How state taxes (or no state tax) change your real take-home pay
• The W-4 form and why you might still owe at tax time
• Compound interest: why $300/month from age 20–30 beats $300/month from 30–60 — by over $100,000
• S&P 500, diversification, and dollar-cost averaging in plain English
• The investment fee question your broker doesn't want you to ask
• LLCs vs. S-Corps: what they protect, what they don't
• Traditional IRA vs. Roth IRA — which one and when
• The new Trump Account $1,000 baby savings program
• HSAs, term vs. whole life, renter's insurance — what to buy and what to skip
• How to negotiate with credit card companies when you're underwater
