Rather than coming across an ad for a new offering, I saw a post from one of my favorite YouTubers Amanda Golka (AKA... Personal Finance
Money at 30: Life-Changing Money
by Kyle Burbank
The term "life-changing money" is one that gets used fairly frequently but has only recently caused me to perk up my ears. It occurs to me that, perhaps, the expression is limiting in its scope. Oftentimes, the phrase is used on game shows when contestants win five or maybe even six figures in prize money.
