Show Notes
My guest today is Dr. Thomas Richardson. He has a doctorate in Clinical Psychology, with a special interest in financial difficulties and mental problems. He's done a lot of research on the subject, including co-authoring a research paper that examined the relationship between personal unsecured debt and mental and physical health.
