I am a 23 year old and finding this my goodness has been a help. Starting from motivating me to take care of my financial responsibilities. Learning about things I DIDNT have a clue about. Thank you so much!!!
Bad advice

I found your episode on the single pay annuity baffling. You were so pro for it I suspect you were receiving some kind of financial compensation. You are the only financial advisor I have ever heard that likes these products, every other advisor warns people not to buy them. You didn’t even mention the ridiculous fees they charge. Very irresponsible reporting.
