We're taking some time to highlight some of our best Gymsplain Episodes, like this one discussing the pros and cons of buy now, pay later or pay in four options popular on most websites!

On this episode of Financially Naked: Stories from The Financial Gym, we'll be taking a closer look at Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) payment options. In the convenience and instant gratification age, these payment options have become more popular. BNPL options allow consumers to purchase products and services instantly while spreading out the payments over time. On the surface, they seem like a great option, but as with any financial tool, the pros and cons must be considered. 

To have this conversation, two of our Certified Financial Trainers, Hector Lopez and Kylie Lipinksi, are here to explore how these apps work, their benefits, and the potential downsides you'll want to consider before using BNPL apps. Analyzing all aspects of these tools is crucial to make informed decisions about our financial well-being.
