It's Okay to Make Money - An Interview with Polly Payne
When you're a generous person, how do you decide how much of your business revenue you want to give away? A portion of gross sales? A portion of net profit? Something else?

The Nature of Money - Who Decides What it is?
If we're going to think outside the box about money (see yesterday's episode), a good place to start is defining what money is.
In a world of cryptocurrency, bitcoin, the possible replacement of the US Dollar as the world's currency, etc... this might be one of the most important questions you ask.

#TriviaTuesday - What happened on May 1, 1975 that impacts your investments right now?
You know what they say, those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it.
They also say, the history of the stock market is no indication of its future.
Someone told me once, when thinking about a person, the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior.
Another person told me, you've got to let people change... your expectation that they will stay the same, keeps them the same.
So, with a grain of salt or with the weight of the world, your choice, what can we learn from the events of May 1, 1975?

#WisdomWednesday - Financial Independence and Entrepreneurship
I was recently chatting with some new friends and they mentioned 1 way to tell you're a true entrepreneur. It was this:
When you start to try out entrepreneurship, you'll hit some kind of obstacle (maybe even just your own fear). Too many people give up right then. You know you're an entrepreneur if you keep going. You might cry for a while but you get back up and start again.

How Do Women Build Wealth Around the World
In an NIH study in 2006, it was found that men have an average net worth more than $100k than women. They looked at over 10,000 people over almost 50 years from 1957 to 2004. In 1957, their participants were 18. In 2004, they were in their 60s. They tracked their wealth over the years.
Another study from 2020 shows much lower net worths and a difference of about $7,000 more for men than women. This one looked at young professionals.
In this episode, we look at why and what that means for how to change it. You won't hear what I share anywhere else... that's just how male-dominated the financial world is.

Financial Independence for Entrepreneurs
Financial Independence for entrepreneurs is a lot like Financial Independence for employees. Spend less than you earn, save the rest, and protect your wealth from loss.
But, entrepreneurs are a different type of person than employees. We have different mindsets. We think about the world differently.
Today, I want to explore how to use our entrepreneurial characteristics as ways to get us to Financial Independence easier, faster, and with more certainty.

Financial Independence for Women
In the 1960s women were granted the right to have their own personal bank account. In the 1970s women could get a personal credit card.
What vestiges of the male dominated financial world still exist today? Many!
We don't need to list them. Instead, let's take a look at what a more feminine approach to money might look like.
