The 5 Financial Mistakes I Made In My 20s & How Much They Cost Me

When I take a snapshot of my financial decisions from the last 25 years, I can clearly see five mistakes that have cost me a painfully large amount of money. I’m looking back on what I should’ve done differently, including my investment plan, my lack of passive income, buying a home too early, and what financial advice I followed. 

Regardless of how old you are or where you are with your finances, my story proves that it’s never too late to become unapologetically wealthy! 

 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• How much money I’ve missed out on because I didn’t prioritize building long-term wealth when I was younger

• My rule-of-thumb for figuring out if I can afford something now 

• Why I recommend automatically investing into low-cost index funds

• Passive income sources that I wish I started up earlier 

• My controversial take on home ownership 

• An honest look at where I settled for average advice
