FishbowlNY editor Amanda Ernst appeared on the “Today” show today as part of financial contributor Jean Chatzky’s “Mini Money Makeover” series.

“When the four-and-a-half minute segment got underway, Kotb and Gifford really drove the conversation and it was all I could do to just hold on and get a well-formed response out of my mouth,” Ernst said. “But in the end, I hope I made the point I went there to make: if a fired writer like me — with no freelance experience and just a handful of contacts in the industry — can make it work, so can you.”
