In today’s episode, I wanted to continue with part two of this podcast — the beginning of your journey to financial freedom.
In the last episode, I essentially covered the importance of just one having a longer time horizon and thinking into five to 10 year time blocks when it comes to your financial goals where you want to be in wealth building.
We also discussed the importance of cleaning up your credit, having a good credit score, and fixing and increasing your income but decreasing your expenses.
However, do you know that one of the most important things that you can do for yourself when beginning your journey to financial freedom is surrounding yourself with people who have the same mindset, who are levels and years ahead of you that want to accomplish the same things.
I wasn't fortunate enough to grow up around people who had the mindset who knew how to use money, who understood money, the flows of money, who understood the importance of debt.
And that's one of the reasons why I want to make sure that I'm putting out episodes like this when we talk about those things where you unpack essential lessons that you can understand in achieving financial success.

See you on the inside!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
