    Ep. 5 - Are you and your partner financially compatible?

    In this episode of TechQuiero Más, Viv and Xavi talk about something that impacts almost every relationship — money. Are you financially compatible with your partner? Whether you’re married, dating, or currently single, learning how to have open and honest conversations about finances can make a huge difference in your relationship and your long-term financial future. We start the episode with a quick game you can try with your partner at home — questions designed to reveal how each of you thinks about money, fear, and long-term goals. Then we dive into:• Why couples should start talking about money earlier than most people think• The impact your childhood and “money story” can have on your financial habits• How to decide whether to build wealth separately, together, or through a hybrid approach• Why knowing your numbers (salary, net worth, retirement goals, emergency funds) matters for both partners• The 4% rule and how to estimate your retirement number using the FIRE framework Research shows that many couples avoid these conversations — even in long-term relationships — which can lead to misunderstandings and financial stress later on. In this episode, we also share personal stories about how we grew up thinking about money and how those experiences shaped our financial conversations as a couple. Then we answer three questions from our community: 💰 Money:Do you need thousands of dollars to open a High Yield Savings Account? What should beginners know before opening one? 💼 Career:What advice would we give to a first-generation college student who is about to graduate and start their career? 💗 Relationships:When should couples disclose their salaries? And is it a red flag if a partner isn’t comfortable talking about money? If you’re navigating finances in a relationship — or preparing for those conversations in the future — this episode is for you. — To shop Viv’s debt tracker, budget tracker, and access free financial tools:www.stan.store/overgenpoverty To submit an anonymous question and be featured in a future episode:https://forms.gle/SoS6NHpsPfMm3KSx7 Thanks for listening to TechQuiero Más — for couples who want more and are building it together.

    Ep. 1 - How to Build Wealth When You Come from Nothing

    Welcome to the very first episode of TechQuiero Más In this debut episode, Viv and Xavi share the real story behind their journey — from being first-generation college graduates with limited financial guidance to building careers in tech and creating stability on their own terms.

Then we answer three powerful questions from our community: • What actually helped Viv get out of debt — better jobs, budgeting systems, books, or something else entirely? • How do we support each other’s career growth without competing or sacrificing our own goals? • How do you help immigrant parents build financial security when you’re still figuring it out yourself?
