We started to watch this series, hoping it gave folks some decent information and advice.
The 1st episode "Get Rich Quick Schemes" was decent, and showed how scammers have not only not slowed down in the past 20 years, but there are more scams today than ever before. And many are perfectly legal.
This episode I give 4 out of 5 stars.
The 2nd episode - Credit Card Debt, was a good episode. Describing the predatory lending practices, debt anchoring and other methods banks used to make literally $trillions in profits. And even discussed personal responsibility and poor money management that gets you in that position in the first place.
This episode I give 4 out of 5 stars.
And this is where the series gets lost.
The 3rd episode - Student Loan Debt is terrible. It is obviously nothing but propaganda for the loan forgiveness and free education movement.
It repeats the false statement about how minorities are "unfairly" targeted and have three times the default rates as whites. But fails to mention the very reason why blacks are failing in the first place... a system that shoves them through by lowering standards and pushing them through regardless they have basically failed every subject. Let's ignore that... and just pretend it isn't reality.
This episode I give 1 out of 5 stars. Misinformation and outright false information.
Yeah... done with it.
