Managing money in a business can often be complicated and confusing, especially without the right type of financial education. However, financial podcasts and books provide a convenient — and inexpensive — way to tap into expert subject knowledge. We have rounded up a list of five podcasts that can help you understand business finance better so you can become a skilled budgeter and keep your business financially healthy.
You Need A Budget, popularly referred to as YNAB, is a weekly personal finance podcast hosted by Jesse Mecham. It covers the basics of budgeting, including how to save more money, get out of debt and ensure that you’re not living paycheck to paycheck. Each episode lasts anywhere between five and 15 minutes, which makes it an easy listen. In just a few minutes, you’re treated to a motivational pep talk or invaluable information that helps you stay on track.
In this podcast, the two hosts discuss the important areas of personal finance — namely, investing, budgeting, paying off debt and so on, in a non-intimidating way.

Recent episodes have covered timely topics like foreclosures and index funds, while some of the series’ most popular episodes include coverage of using IRA strategies to cut taxable income.
