This week, some of our favorite stories of how money drives the choices we make. Host Gabriel Spitzer plays a game of Job Title Bingo. Ed Ronco gets a history lessons from Bill Kurtis on skyjacker D.B. Cooper. Writer Paulette Perhach makes the case for creating a fund specifically in order to escape a bad relationshiup or job. Nick Morrison talks about his experience working in the potato biz with his father. And the “Obamacare Kid” opens up about how life has changed since the signing of the Affordable Care Act.
