Stop wasting all of your free time on buying yourself another job. Sure, all the cool kids are talking about “side hustles” these days. If you’re reading this and DON’T have a side hustle, there’s a nearly one-hundred percent chance that you’ve thought about starting one yourself. Before all of that pain, you’ll want to hear from today’s guest who says that not all side hustles are created equal. Brian Page has built an empire built on an entirely different premise. Will it take work? Yes. Is it more sustainable than a second job? Absolutely, and that’s why we wanted to chat with Brian. He not only shares ideas, he’ll tell you how he did it.
We’ve heard a lot about investment funds in hot water over high fees but now some are getting in trouble for fees being too….low? In our headline piece, we’ll discuss the hot topic of fees from this completely different angle.We’ll dive in and guide you in the right direction to picking your own investments. Then we’ll answer Rachel’s question about investing in today’s market, and as always, Doug will share his trivia.
