• No way we made $100k to invest in 2021! How?????
    Mar 25 2022

    On episode #15 (@yngblkinvestor) Jerome & co-host Sophy Young talk about their journey to invest $100k into the crypto and stock market in 2021. Although we fell short of our goal it was encouraging to be so close to investing close to 6 figures in one year during a pandemic. We touch on the "3 M's of Money: Make it, Manage it, and Multiply it" on this episode with strategies that we used to invest a lot of money in 12 months. This was a great challenge to put our minds together and plan strategically monthly to achieve this goal. It's essential to talk about finances with your spouse and it's like hitting the lottery when you share the same money language.

  • The”D” is Silent
    Oct 18 2021

    On episode #13 Jerome Young (@yngblkinvestor) and co-host Sophy Young go over good debt and bad debt. We talk about effective ways to manage debt, how to utilize good debt to get cashflow and how to make the most of rewards points. We also discuss the importance of talking openly with your partner/spouse about finances and debt. It's no secret that debt can wreak havoc on your mental health/relationship and many need education on this topic. 

     

    We hope this episode inspires people to find the right balance to manage their outstanding debt and invest their way to financial freedom. We are not financial advisors/planners all opinions from this episode are from our own personal experiences.
