The Blueprint To Financial Freedom And Incredible Wealth

What if the lyrics of your favourite hip hop songs held the blueprint to financial freedom?

Welcome back to ep101 of Inspired To Invest. To watch rather than listen, click HERE.

This week Drew Boyer is with us—Certified Financial Planner, speaker, and author of Hip Hop x Finance—to talk about his incredible journey from six figures in debt to financial freedom, and how the culture of hip hop shaped his money mindset.

Drew brings a fresh, relatable voice to the world of personal finance by translating lessons from hip hop into actionable financial strategies that anyone can use—especially young people, creatives, and underserved communities. Think Jay-Z meets Dave Ramsey (with better beats and cooler shoes).

This episode isn’t just about budgeting or investing. It’s about empowerment through financial literacy, challenging cultural narratives around money, and creating wealth that lasts for generations.

Drew doesn’t just preach theory—he lived it. After racking up over $100,000 in debt, he made a decision to learn everything he could about money, turn his life around, and now helps others do the same through his book, coaching, and social media content.

 

💡 In this episode, we dive deep into:

🔸 How hip hop culture can be a gateway to financial education
🔸 The moment Drew realized he was financially drowning—and how he turned it around
🔸 The biggest money lessons we can learn from artists like Jay-Z, Nas, and Dr. Dre
🔸 Why financial literacy is still lacking in schools (and how to fix it)
🔸 How parents can teach their kids about money using storytelling and music
🔸 What Hip Hop x Finance is really about—and how it’s changing lives
🔸 Tactical advice on budgeting, paying off debt, investing, and building real wealth
🔸 The myths about money that keep people broke
🔸 Why mindset, not income, is the real key to wealth
