Esusu: Save More Money with Your Friends and Family
In cultures around the world families and friends pool their money together into a single pot of money. The process is called esusu, and a new app has adopted the name and making the process easier than ever.
Abbey Wemimo is the co-founder of Esusu. As an immigrant himself, Wemimo's mother practiced esusu and used that financing strategy to send Wemimo to school.
Wemimo explains that the main focus is to create a platform for immigrants and people of color, but of course he would be happy for all Americans to use the platform. Accessibility was a key factor in developing Esusu, which is why Wemimo says the company built a phone-based app.
Nicci Levy, the founder and CEO of Alchemy 43, joined Cheddar News' Henna Doba on a Walk and Talk to discuss how the company makes cosmetic microtreatments accessible.
With job security being uncertain across a number of sectors, the American workforce is beginning to look toward career paths beyond their realm of expertise.
