In the series, Browning speaks directly to the audience and provides knowledge and quick assumptions about how viewers can get their personal finances in order.
“Our mission is to improve lives and one way we do that is through education,” said Chris Murray, chief experience officer at Truliant. “We realized that in today’s digital world, which is always going on, we had to find new ways to provide education. Making Money Burst appear in social media feeds on Facebook, TikTok, Instagram and Linkedin is how we do it. ”

“I know what it’s like to struggle with debt and try to make ends meet every month,” Browning said. “The pressure to achieve so many financial goals can be overwhelming and cause many of us to ignore our financial situation. It feels like there is just so much to know.
“It is my goal to be a trusted voice to break down the financial world and help you steer clear of the pitfalls and in the life you want for yourself and your family. Money does not have to be complicated and with Money Burst you get straightforward and easy-to-understand financial information. ”
