‘I’m sorry I’m not a financial advisor with unlimited resources so I can’t make those kinds of statements or operate with that mindset.’ he said. Unlimited resources? Being an advisor is not about having unlimited resources or capital. It’s actually the opposite. Being an advisor means knowing how to utilize money in ways that create the most impact. It’s about buying whole wings for $2.92/lb and chopping them up, instead of party wings for $4.94/lb. It’s about buying 3 boxes of 10ct waffles for $1.98 instead 1 box of 24 for $5.99. It’s about buying 91 octane gas instead of 87 because even though it’s more at the pump, it gets more miles per gallon so you end up spending less for the month. It’s about monitoring cash flow. Income vs expenses. Save first, spend later. It’s about strategy. Can I afford the lifestyle I want with my current income? If not, do I need to decrease my expenses or make more money? Am I spending frivolously or impulsively? Am I saving? If not, why? Do my current spending habits align with my future goals? What are my future goals?

I think outlining the plan for "If X happens , I will Y" on paper is a strong grounding step for myself. I tend to over plan before / during execution and do not mind a " pivot or two" during the process. I thrive off of finetuning the wish and all the learning that happens as the process unfolds.

Sometimes the algorithm on my phone brings me to the “school of hard knocks” interviews. I loved this quick interview with Jameis Winston. We all are here “for a very unique” purpose. Hopefully that encourages someone today! https://youtube.com/shorts/Ztm_x2UWNSg?si=SxhwreTb8PRl2gIe

Hi everyone! Watching this today on YT. A lot of the neighborhoods have a minimum HH income of 100K -200k. Even though this HH income range is above the nat’nl avg - I believe it is a bit alarming, while at the same time motivating to view and learn about. https://youtu.be/dNIXaiS9BaQ?si=Ldrma9QzzhR5zk1O
