Join Andrew Lees, Clint McPherson, and their guest Mark Willis as they talk about how you can use the banking function to your advantage, the booming and boring 20s, limiting beliefs, and more.

Show Notes

Studies by the Federal Reserve show that 60% of Americans only have an average of $400 set aside for emergency funds. When emergencies requiring more than $400 come around, it can lead to debt or the selling away of properties. For Mark, this typical financial plan is insane. To get out of this loop, ask: "What do you want your money doing for you?" Where you put your money makes it act differently.

In this episode you will learn:

  • Why do you need to examine your rainy-day funds during good times?
  • What attracted Mark to become a CFP?
  • "Rich people plan for four generations; poor people plan for Saturday night."
  • The everyday things that hold people back from a sustainable financial future
  • Procrastination is actually wisdom!
  • …and so much more
