What is the best thing you did to build your wealth?
I found ways to diversify my income rather than depending on one income stream. This allowed me to become more aggressive in targeting my financial goals.
What is a financial misstep you made that you learned from?
Not downsizing my expenses as a preventative measure instead of as a reactionary measure.
What advice would you give to millennials who are struggling financially?
Keep striving for a solution. As long as you’re thinking of solutions, they will come. Cut back on the behaviors that contributed to your financial struggles and adopt the opposite of those.Â
