If you've never taken a look at a credit union, now is the time. Credit unions are a cooperative banking system meaning they exist literally to give back to their members.

They pass profits back to members in terms of lower fees and better rates. You may remember Tamar Atamian, VP of Marketing and Advertising from Wescom Credit Union, from an episode in October, and we are back for part 2 to help you fall in love with credit unions and uncover why credit unions might just be better than banks.What You'll LearnWhat is a credit unionWhat makes credit unions different from traditional banksHow credit unions pass profits back to membersHow you can join Wescom credit unionWhy credit unions like Wescom give back to the communityHow to find and join a credit unionLinksWescom Credit UnionTamar Atamian on LinkedInWhat Would You Give Up to Get Rid of Debt podcast episodeEpisode TranscriptSUBSCRIBE & SHAREWant to be the first to know when new episodes are released? Click here to subscribe in iTunes!
