The project

About They Keep You Broke

Why They Keep You Broke investigates the systems that turn ordinary financial pressure into expensive contracts, fees, and payments.

They Keep You Broke is an educational media project for working people living under payments, bills, deadlines, and financial systems that are easier to enter than understand.

What we make

Videos expose one mechanism at a time. The search library turns each mechanism into a durable reference. The Life Under Pressure Kit helps a person turn the document in front of them into questions and next moves.

What we believe

Financial pressure is not a character flaw. A person can work hard, pay attention, and still face a price built around urgency, information gaps, or limited choices. The useful response is not shame. It is a clearer ledger.
