Each month, Brain Food highlights podcasts by others on key issues that impact your pocketbook.

This month we highlight several video podcasts from the Federal Trade Commission.

These Money Transfer Scams video podcasts describe several types of money transfer scams, when money transfers are appropriate, and what to do if you've if may have been scammed.

Brain Food contains links to sites that we think provide interesting information. While we like highlighting good podcasts, neither the credit union nor Remar Sutton and Associates mean this spotlight on the podcasts to be an endorsement of any products or services mentioned in them.
