The publication
What to expect.
Money with Katie takes familiar personal finance questions and asks what the surrounding culture and economy leave out. Katie Gatti Tassin combines money explanations with commentary on work, consumption, wealth and the systems shaping individual choices. The Wednesday newsletter remains active after her return to independent ownership in 2026. The former Money with Katie Show stopped production, so the email and essay archive are the relevant ongoing reading products. The perspective is especially useful for examining advice that treats every financial outcome as purely personal.
Who it’s for
Readers who want practical money thinking alongside a critical look at work, gender and economic systems, especially when conventional personal finance advice feels incomplete.
