The Personal Finance History Podcast is a personal finance and history podcast exploring how ordinary people have earned, saved, spent, borrowed, and worried about money across centuries.

Before budgets, credit scores, retirement accounts, and investing apps, people still had to survive winters, manage debt, build wealth, avoid ruin, and plan for the future. This podcast tells the forgotten story of personal finance through history—and explains how those past systems still shape your money life today.

Each episode blends financial history, behavioral finance, psychology of money, and clear explanations of the modern financial system. You’ll learn:

• How people managed money before banks and paychecks
• Why debt, credit, and interest evolved the way they did
• How inflation, wages, and wealth changed family life
• Why financial crises keep repeating
• How fear, greed, and status shaped money decisions
• How the brain processes risk, reward, and loss
• What history teaches about saving, spending, and investing

This isn’t a stock tip podcast or a motivational finance show. It’s a story-driven guide to personal finance, money behavior, financial decision-making, and understanding how history quietly built the systems that control modern money.

If you’re interested in personal finance, financial history, behavioral economics, psychology of money, how the financial system works, wealth building, investing behavior, and learning how the past explains today’s money problems—this podcast is for you.
