Breaking up is hard to do…but what if your money is at stake? You don’t want to be in a horrible relationship with a financial advisor that you can’t trust, don’t like, and who doesn’t make your wallet go all a-flutter. That’s why we called in Chris Mamula to kick off “relationship week” on the podcast. He’s a guy who was anti-advisor for a long time and now IS an advisor. How would HE tell you to break up when you’re in a bad relationship? He’ll share great tips AND his personal experience from behind the advisory veil on today’s show.
Plus, in our headline segment, millennials are struggling with credit card debt. How do they begin to dig out? We’ll share both strategies and motivators for you, whether you’re a millennial or not. Of course, we have a brilliant TikTok minute from a Stacker who’s making the most of a Hallmark holiday by making money instead of spending it. If you’re spending Valentine’s Day working, you’ll LOVE this edition…
Of course, we’ll also share Doug’s fantastic trivia question AND Joe’s review of Poor Things on the back porch.
Deeper dives with curated links, topics, and discussions are in our newsletter, The 201, available at https://www.stackingbenjamins.com/201
Enjoy!
