In this episode, we discuss a number of issues that can derail software developers from effectively managing their finances. We start out with a breakdown of some pretty alarming statistics regarding average household debt levels in America and how those are broken down across a number of categories.


Next, we discuss some ways that developers can deal with their financial problems. Without getting too technical, we suggest some strategies to being digging out from under debt, including ways to reduce expenses, reduce outstanding debt, and increasing income. Finally, we point a couple of things that may help you get through it all successfully.
