Money Palooza
Money Palooza is the personal finance fiesta you’ve been waiting for! 🎉 This upbeat podcast turns learning about money into a celebration. Designed for Gen Z and Millennial Filipinos – from students and young professionals to OFWs chasing their dreams abroad – each episode feels like chatting with a financially savvy friend at a barrio fiesta. We take the “ugh” out of budgeting and bring the “aha!” with relatable stories, humor, and real-talk tips on handling budgeting, ipon (saving), utang (debt), and investing.
Formerly known as “Pera Palooza,” Money Palooza keeps the same handaan (party) vibe but now welcomes an even wider audience to the table. Hosted in a mix of English and Tagalog for that genuine Pinoy touch, the show breaks down money matters into bite-sized, practical lessons. Our mission is to empower you to build wealth and confidence one fun episode at a time. (After all, only about one in four Filipino adults is financially literate – we’re here to change that in the most engaging way possible!). Whether you’re tackling your first budget, plotting your next investment, or sending money back home, Money Palooza is your upbeat companion on the journey to financial freedom. Halina’t maki-saya at matuto! (Come join the fun and learning!) 🥳💰
