Alright, who are my sports fans? There are few things we all love more than sports. Being in a crowd at a game or having friends over and rooting for your fav team is simply the best feeling. And if you’re a sports fan you know that sports can be downright budget-breaking. According to a Lendingtree.com survey, sports fans will shell out an average of $664 this fall and 33% may take on debt to do so.
Our guest on this episode is Matt Schulz, chief credit analyst for LendingTree, and he’s here to break down how to enjoy sports without going into debt and if you’re a parent, how to afford the sports your kid wants to play. He’s even got a super cool credit card tip that you need to know if you are in debt. As Matt says, “there are few things we love more than sports and in good times and bad times, we’re willing to spend money on sports as an escape to bring us together. Nothing quite unites like the love of sports.” So here’s to loving sports but doing so while balancing your money goals. Let’s start talkin’.
