On the Mark: Rachel Gordon

Financial decisions shape nearly every aspect of our lives, but many people still struggle with the basics. In this episode, President Mark Ginsberg sits down with finance expert Dr. Rachel Gordon to unpack what financial literacy really means in today’s complex economy. From budgeting and borrowing to investing and managing risk, Dr. Gordon breaks down the essential skills everyone should develop—and why knowledge alone isn’t enough without the ability to put it into practice. The conversation explores how rising costs, financial technology, and generational habits are reshaping the way we manage money, while offering practical, accessible strategies to build stability and long-term success.
