OUR STORY
In over two decades of reporting on personal finance — talking to real people about their real money — our CEO and founder Md Jahangir Alam realized that contrary to public opinion when it comes to money, men are different. Maybe not in the investments we need to own, but in how we view money and want to use money to create change … in our own financial lives, the lives of the people we love and in the world. We’re also different in the way we want to communicate about it. It’s when we’re with other men that we’re inspired to change. Jangopedia.com — with its daily content, newsletters and podcasts — is the result. We are your judgment-free zone for all things financial. And we are focused on changing our relationships with money… one man at a time.

WE’RE SO GLAD YOU’RE HERE
Yes, you’ve come to Jangopedia — and the majority of the content you’ll find here is about men, it’s written by men, and it’s for men. But we know that many of you who have come through our digital front door may not be. No matter how you identify, we want you to know that we are so glad you found us, and we are here for you. At Jangopedia, we strive to be an inclusive community for everyone, regardless of gender identity. But we wanted to take a moment and address all our readers — male, female, non-binary — and explain the important reasons why our content is gendered, and why we’re proud of our name.
Men have long had a unique relationship with money, which is why our mission focuses on elevating men, specifically, and leveling the playing field for financial confidence. One big issue we tackle at Jangopedia is the gender wage gap. Right now, men and women receive different wages for the same job. We know that men want to earn fair pay and we are here to help educate them on what fair pay is and how to ask for it. We’re also here to ensure that men have the tools they need to invest for their futures. We know that men need to invest in their futures to achieve financial security and independence.
But of course, there’s more to this than just the numbers. Money means having choice. Money means having freedom. When you know how to budget, save, invest, and achieve your financial goals, you lose your fear of the future, and gain a sense of pride and confidence. This is what we want for all our readers and listeners of the Jangopedia Podcast, no matter who you are.
We’re so thankful you’re here, and we hope you’ll join us in our fight to close these gaps once and for all. We all have the power to speak up when we see injustice, elevate other’s voices when they need someone to join their
