Is Gold the Secret Investment Your Portfolio's Been Missing? With Brandon Thor

Mon, 06 Apr 2026 04:00:00 GMT

You've probably seen the late-night gold commercials and immediately changed the channel. Same. But here's the thing — what if that reaction is exactly what the banks, financial advisors, and the government want from you?

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Brandon Thor, CEO and founder of Thor Metals Group, to break down why precious metals investing isn't just for doomsday preppers — and why less than half of 1% of people invest in gold despite it being mentioned in the Bible 431 times. The gatekeeping is real, mi gente, and we're pulling back the curtain.

We get into what a self-directed IRA actually is, how physical gold is different from buying GLD in your Fidelity account, and why central banks all over the world are hoarding this stuff while the rest of us sleep on it. Whether you have $20K sitting in a savings account doing nothing or you're just curious about diversifying beyond stocks and bonds, this episode is going to break your brain — in the best way.

WE GET INTO:

01:46 — What is a precious metals IRA (in plain English)?

02:41 — Self-directed IRA vs. traditional & Roth IRAs

04:05 — Paper gold (GLD) vs. physical gold: the counterparty risk nobody talks about

05:09 — Who should actually be investing in precious metals?

07:25 — Why gold has a bad reputation (hint: it's intentional)

09:19 — How long does the setup process take?

10:26 — Where does the gold actually go?

11:58 — Pros, cons, and the right time horizon for precious metals

13:17 — How to think about returns (spoiler: it's not like dividend stocks)

14:45 — Why gold prices dipped during economic instability

16:04 — Red flags: how to choose a legit precious metals company

17:39 — Yes, Costco sells gold. Is it worth it?

19:46 — Dollar cost averaging vs. lump sum in precious metals

21:22 — Why so few people invest despite gold's 5,000-year track record

24:54 — First steps for the curious but hesitant investor

25:45 — The 10-year outlook for gold and silver

28:12 — Gold: the secret investment hiding in plain sight

32:00 — What financial freedom means to Brandon

34:18 — Where to connect with Thor Metals Group

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

A "gold IRA" is really a self-directed IRA — a specific account type that lets you own alternative assets like physical gold, silver, and real estate instead of just stocks and bonds.
Physical gold eliminates counterparty risk. When you own GLD or another paper version, you're trusting a bank. If that bank fails? You're holding worthless paper. Physical gold is yours, full stop.
The reason most people don't know about precious metals investing isn't an accident. Banks, financial advisors, and the government all benefit from you not having your money in gold. Follow the money.
You don't need a ton to get started, but Brandon's sweet spot recommendation is $20,000 — enough to build a diversified metals portfolio and actually feel the market move.
The ideal time horizon for precious metals is 3–5 years. This isn't money you'll need liquid in two months — it's money that can sit, grow, and do its thing.
Red flags to avoid: anything obscure, anything priced way above spot price, and anything you can't find on a thousand dealer websites. Stick to American Eagles, Maple Leafs, bars, and rounds.
Self-directed IRA fees are flat and low — roughly $225/year regardless of account size. Compare that to the AUM fees you're likely paying right now.
Central banks worldwide are buying and hoarding gold at record levels. When the biggest institutions are buying something retail investors are ignoring, that's worth paying attention to.

Why Latinas Need to Stop Climbing the Corporate Ladder and Build Their Own with Stephanie Pimentel

Mon, 23 Mar 2026 05:00:00 GMT

She was literally born the day her mother landed in the US — and that energy of showing up and figuring it out has followed Steph Michelle Pimentel her entire life.

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Stephanie Pimentel, a Dominican American executive and the founder of Lumena Global, whose work sits at the intersection of cross-border leadership, people strategy, and cultural intelligence. She spent 17 years in corporate — starting as an HR coordinator at $11.75 an hour and climbing all the way to the executive level — only to discover that being invited into the room is not the same thing as having real power in it. We are talking about the "fake seat at the table," what it actually means to be an asset that companies exploit without compensating, why US businesses keep fumbling Latino and Latam markets, and why with AI handing you every tool you need, there has never been a better time to say f*ck corporate and build your own table. Stephanie is also giving YQD listeners a free 15-minute strategy call — no charge, no catch. You need to take her up on it.

WE GET INTO:

0:00 - Intro: Born the Day Her Mother Landed in the US

1:06 - Growing Up Dominican & the "Work, Work, Work" Mentality

9:00 - Battling Imposter Syndrome When You're Losing Your Job

10:41 - Why AI Makes Right Now the Best Time to Ditch Corporate

11:44 - The $4.1 Trillion Latino Market (We Are Not a Niche)

15:02 - How US Companies Fumble Latin American Expansion

24:31 - Stephanie's Entrepreneurial Journey: Failures, LLCs & Rock Bottom

34:57 - Free Strategy Call + How to Work With Stephanie

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Being invited into the room is not the same as having real power in it
Cultural intelligence isn't a soft skill — it's risk management
The US Latino GDP is $4.1 trillion. We are not a niche. We are the market.
US companies lose money in Latam because they treat it as cheap labor instead of a talent engine
You don't need to wait until you hit rock bottom to start building — start before you're ready

Burn the American Dream Down & Build Abroad with Vanessa Wachtmeister

Mon, 16 Mar 2026 05:00:00 GMT

She was one of the baddies who showed up on this show back in 2021 — and four years later, Vanessa Wachtmeister is back and she is NOT the same woman. She's paid off $130,000 in debt, earned her German passport, and is about to launch her second tech startup. And she did all of it from Europe, where blueberries cost a dollar and a minor surgery runs you 300 euro — total.

In this episode, Vanessa and I are getting into ALL of it: what it actually looks like to build a career, a business, and a life abroad. How she navigated work visas, taxes, and even burning down a GmbH to the tune of $100K of her own money to rebuild her startup in the US. We're talking passport diversification as the new financial strategy, why the American dream was always a lie, and how her new job platform Go Onwards is coming for LinkedIn's neck.

If you've been thinking about leaving, this is your sign to stop playing and start moving.

WE GET INTO:

00:00 - Intro: The Baddie Who Left America in 2013 and Never Looked Back

02:51 - Why Vanessa Said "Bye, America" at 21 with $2,000 and a Dream

04:20 - The World Tour: China, London, Syria & Germany

05:42 - What Her Life Would Have Looked Like If She'd Stayed

08:42 - How to Actually Get a Job Abroad: Visas, Work Permits & What Nobody Tells You

10:22 - How to Choose Where to Move

13:20 - Grocery Bills, Free Healthcare & Why She Can Never Come Back

16:16 - From Masterclass Girlie to Tech Founder: Her Creator Evolution

18:57 - The Gap in the Market That Built Go Onwards

21:55 - Why LinkedIn Doesn't Give a F*ck About Job Hunters (and She Does)

23:33 - Pricing, Features & What You Get with Go Onwards

24:44 - The $100K Founder Mistake She Made in Germany

28:36 - The Real Tea on European Taxes

31:33 - Digital Nomads, Remote Work & What 100% Remote Actually Means Abroad

35:22 - Passports Are the New Insurance Policy

36:03 - The (Very Legal, Slightly Gray) Way She's Bringing Her Family to Europe

38:08 - How to Financially Prepare to Move Abroad

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

Getting a job in Europe as a US passport holder is more doable than you think — but you need to understand how work permits and visa sponsorship actually work
The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion lets you exclude up to $130K of foreign income from US federal taxes — stack it with tax credits and you'll be shocked at your bill
Passport diversification is the new financial strategy — multiple citizenships give you options that no investment account can
Go Onwards filters out ghost posts, non-English jobs, and low-paying roles so you only see high-quality opportunities with visa sponsorship across all 30 EU economic areas + the UK
You don't need to fundraise to fund a startup — Vanessa liquidated part of her stock portfolio at peak to self-fund, treating it as diversification into a revenue-generating asset
Living abroad doesn't have to be expensive — Vanessa's all-in monthly budget in Berlin (including rent, health insurance, CrossFit, and Ubers home) is $2,500

The Lazy Way to Build Wealth with Chloe Daniels

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 06:00:00 GMT

Honestly, I don't know why it took me this long to get Chloe Daniels — aka Clo Bare Money Coach — on the show, because she is a whole badass and we have been living parallel lives for years. She went from a torrential relationship with money (including being financially trapped in a dangerous situation abroad) to becoming one of the most refreshing voices in personal finance.

Her approach is called lazy investing — and before you scroll past that, hear her out. Because when BlackRock ran 100 years of market data, the results backed it up. We're getting into all of it: the mindset blocks keeping women out of the market, why Wall Street jargon is gatekeeping on purpose, the truth about financial advisors, and the simple strategy that actually builds wealth long term.

The Credit Card Hacking Strategy That Could Save You Thousands with Jess from The Sugar Daddy Podcast

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 06:00:00 GMT

What if I told you that you could travel the world without maxing out your credit cards?

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Jess from The Sugar Daddy Podcast to talk about something that's been a game changer for me: travel hacking. And no, this isn't some shady scheme. This is about using credit card rewards strategically so you can live your best life without the financial hangover. Jess and her husband run a financial literacy podcast that's all about normalizing money conversations in Black and Brown communities, and she's breaking down exactly how she's been able to travel to places like Aruba without going broke in the process.

Travel hacking works, but ONLY if you can pay off your credit card every month
You need an emergency fund BEFORE you start travel hacking – life will life
Start with low annual fee cards like Chase Sapphire or Capital One Venture ($95 or less)

Then he delivered the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of ALL TIME. But this episode isn't just about celebrating Benito's wins (though we're absolutely doing that too).

The Secret to Creating True Abundance with Rebecca Gitana Torres

Mon, 09 Feb 2026 06:00:00 GMT

This episode is going to shift how you think about success, abundance, and where you belong. I'm sitting down with my vecina, Rebecca Gitana Torres, a spiritual guide who rematriated to Puerto Rico after realizing the American Dream was never meant for people like us. We're talking about what holistic abundance actually means—and spoiler alert, it has nothing to do with your bank account or where you live.

We talk about the generational programming that keeps us chasing external validation, why you need to stop clinging to old identities and relationships, and how to tap into your magnetic energy no matter where you are.

Perreo x Power with Rauw Alejandro: Reinvention Is the Strategy

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Welcome To Perreo x Power, a new series brought to you by Yo Quiero Dinero. In this series, we're analyzing the origins of some of the biggest stars in the Latin Urban/Reggaeton genres and pulling out all the gems that you can apply to your money, business and life! In this debut episode, I'm breaking down a 2020 interview of Rauw Alejandro, Puerto Rican singer, songwriter, and performer known for blending reggaetón with R&B, pop, and electronic sounds. Born Raúl Alejandro Ocasio Ruiz in San Juan, he grew up between Puerto Rico and the mainland U.S., with early exposure to music and a strong foundation in dance, which later became a defining part of his artistry.

He spent years releasing music and refining his craft before breaking through globally, building a reputation for high-level performance, futuristic visuals, and constant reinvention. Rather than chasing trends, Rauw has focused on skill stacking and evolution, allowing him to remain relevant in a fast-moving industry. Find out how a tragic end to his original career goals inspired Rauw to pursue music, and he went from an unknown musician to a Latin Grammy award-winning artist in less than 5 years!

Mon, 02 Feb 2026 05:00:00 GMT

This episode is going to be one of the most honest conversations I’ve ever had on Yo Quiero Dinero. It's a raw, unfiltered conversation about what happens when you mix family and business—and spoiler alert: it gets messy as hell.

The State Of Latina Wealth in America with Dr. Marlene Orozco

Mon, 26 Jan 2026 10:05:00 GMT

In this data-packed episode of Yo Quiero Dinero, Jannese sits down with Dr. Marlene Orozco, founder of Stratified Insights and lead researcher behind one of the most comprehensive studies ever conducted on Latina wealth in America. Together, they break down the receipts real numbers, real stories, and real systems that explain why Latinas continue to earn less, save less, and carry more financial responsibility, despite being one of the fastest-growing economic forces in the country.

This conversation goes beyond hot takes and dives into the structural barriers, cultural expectations, and systemic inequities shaping Latina wealth today from entrepreneurship and homeownership to caregiving, education, and retirement. If you’ve ever felt like you’re working twice as hard for half the reward… this episode will make you feel seen and fired up.

What We Get Into

00:00 Why this Latina wealth data matters

01:10 Meet Dr. Marlene Orozco

04:25 First-gen roots & entrepreneurship

09:30 Necessity vs opportunity businesses

12:50 The Latina wealth paradox

17:45 The 27% pay gap explained

23:50 Entrepreneurship as a wealth strategy

29:55 Homeownership & credit barriers

34:10 Retirement & investment gaps

37:45 Financial first responders

47:40 The motherhood penalty

56:20 Hope, policy & what’s next

Key Takeaways

Latinas are not behind because of bad choices — the system is working exactly as designed.
Education and entrepreneurship do increase earning potential, but they are not enough without access to capital and policy support.
Caregiving, cultural expectations, and family responsibility significantly limit Latinas’ ability to save and invest.
Homeownership remains a primary wealth strategy, but affordability, credit access, and insurance risks threaten long-term stability.
Real change requires structural solutions, not just individual financial literacy.

How Mental Health Messes With Your Money with Mariana Barajas

Mon, 12 Jan 2026 10:05:00 GMT

In this episode of Yo Quiero Dinero, Jannese sits down with Mariana Barajas, licensed therapist and money coach aka @lamoneytherapist

to unpack the deep, emotional connection between mental health and money.

From first-gen pressure and eldest-daughter trauma to scarcity mindsets, over-spending, money hoarding, and burnout, this conversation goes beyond budgeting tips and gets to the root of our financial behaviors. Because let’s be real: most of us already know what to do with money—what stops us is what’s happening in our nervous system.

Mariana breaks down how childhood experiences, cultural conditioning, and subconscious beliefs shape the way we earn, spend, save, and invest—and what it actually takes to heal your relationship with money.

If you’ve ever wondered why you can’t keep money, why you’re afraid to take financial risks, or why success still doesn’t feel like enough… this episode is for you.

What We Get Into

00:01 – 02:00

Mariana’s background as a licensed therapist and money coach
Why mental health and financial wellness must be treated holistically

02:01 – 05:00

The fast dopamine hit of spending once you “finally make it”
How retail therapy can quietly lead to debt and lifestyle inflation

10:11 – 13:20

Identifying subconscious money beliefs
Introduction to financial therapy and why budgeting alone isn’t enough

13:21 – 15:30

The Money-Worthiness Framework
Challenging limiting beliefs, building self-trust, and the role of community

15:31 – 18:10

People-pleasing, and cultural expectations placed on women
How these beliefs impact earning, saving, and self-advocacy

18:11 – 21:45

Preparing for motherhood financially and emotionally
Funding maternity leave, wellness practices, and not losing yourself in motherhood

21:46 – 24:00

Fear-based money behaviors: hoarding, anxiety, and control
Understanding where “fear of losing everything” really comes from

24:01 – 27:15

Why some people can’t hold onto money
Spending as a reflection of worthiness wounds and external validation

27:16 – 30:45

Values-based spending vs. keeping up appearances
Letting go of money decisions driven by comparison

30:46 – 33:45

Increasing income as a wealth strategy
Breaking limiting beliefs around “acceptable” income in helping professions

33:46 – 36:30

Building generational wealth with intention
Custodial Roth IRAs, 529s, and giving kids financial options

36:31 – 39:30

Why funding your retirement is a gift to your children
Breaking cycles of financial dependence and self-sacrifice

39:31 – 41:45

Supporting family financially without destroying your mental health
The emotional weight of being the “sandwich generation”

41:46 – 44:40

How to work with Mariana
Financial therapy vs. coaching and knowing which one you need

Key Takeaways

Your money habits didn’t come out of nowhere—they were learned.
Scarcity isn’t just financial; it lives in your nervous system.
Over-spending and under-earning often stem from worthiness wounds.
Budgeting won’t fix trauma—but healing trauma will fix your money.
You don’t need to do it all alone—community is part of wealth-building.
Generational wealth is built over generations, not in one lifetime.

[REPLAY] How to Rewrite Your Money Story and Build Real Wealth with Rose Han

Mon, 15 Dec 2025 11:15:00 GMT

What happens when you do everything “right”—go to college, land the six-figure job, make your family proud—and still end up buried in debt, burned out, and feeling trapped? In this episode, Jannese sits down with Rose Han, a first-gen wealth builder, YouTuber, and now author of Add A Zero. Rose opens up about her journey from over $100K in student loan debt to becoming a self-made millionaire, and the mindset shifts, financial strategies, and rebellious choices that made it possible.

We talk about:

The real impact of student loan debt on millennials & Gen Z’s version of the American Dream
Why “employee income” is the least free kind of income (and what to focus on instead)
Rose’s Add A Zero framework for going from negative net worth to your first million—step by step
How money identity, family conditioning, and cultural expectations shape our financial choices
Why sometimes you have to ignore your parents’ advice and carve your own path
The freedom and fulfillment that come when you stop playing small and start building wealth on your own terms

If you’ve ever felt stuck in debt, confused about money, or pressured to follow someone else’s script for success, this conversation is your permission slip to rewrite your financial story.

Is Airbnb Still Worth It in 2025? Honest Breakdown with Victor Zeledón

Mon, 08 Dec 2025 10:15:00 GMT

This week, Jannese is joined by Victor Zeledón (@ourjourneywithless) a husband, dad, and Airbnb mentor who proves you don’t need six figures, a trust fund, or a fancy investing background to build wealth through real estate.

Victor started with what most of us already have: a home, two extra rooms, and a need to build an emergency fund. Fast forward seven years and those two rooms turned into five cash-flowing rentals, a fully retired wife, homes in multiple states, and a roadmap to financial freedom.

This convo is packed with gems, game-changing strategies, and the kind of transparency that our comunidad NEEDS to hear — because real estate is not “just for other people.” It’s for us, too.

What We Get Into

04:30 — Who’s actually renting rooms on Airbnb? (It’s not who you think!)
05:50 — How they scaled from 1 room to 5 properties.
06:40 — The real talk on hosting strangers: Safety, locks, boundaries, and vibes.
08:15 — Airbnb vs. traditional renting: Why Airbnb was the wealth-building accelerator.
09:20 — The Airbnb landscape in 2025: Regulations, fees, and why boring listings get no love.
13:00 — Wild host lessons: What every new host should prepare for (yes, including tias who leave surprises).
14:30 — Emergency funds + financial safety nets: How to protect your pockets.
16:20 — Is Airbnb still worth it today? Victor breaks it down.
17:30 — Why they bought in Waco & Tulsa: Out-of-state investing made simple.
19:10 — How they bought a house in Tulsa with $0 out-of-pocket.
20:40 — How to manage rentals remotely without losing your mind.
24:00 — The family vision: From paying off debt → replacing his wife’s income → full financial freedom.
26:00 — How Victor mentors new Airbnb hosts for FREE through the Airbnb Ambassador Program.

Top Takeaways

Start where you are. A spare room can be your entry point into real estate — not a barrier.
Airbnb hosting is work, but the income potential is REAL. Many hosts earn 2–3x a traditional rental.
2025 is still a viable year to invest, especially if you explore mid-term rentals and lower-cost markets.

Andrea opens up about the challenges of leaving her 9-to-5, becoming a mom, and redefining success on her own terms. From navigating variable income to healing generational scarcity mindsets, she reminds us that wealth isn’t just about numbers—it’s about peace, possibility, and purpose.

How to Survive Divorce | Aliette H. Carolan, Esq. | The Quick Divorce, Inc.©

Mon, 20 Jan 2025 05:00:00 GMT

Episode 306 features Aliette H. Carolan, Esq. of The Quick Divorce, Inc.©. We're talking about how to survive divorce! Listen now!

Aliette H. Carolan, Esq. has been practicing exclusively in the area of Marital & Family Law since 2004.

She recognized that not everyone she wanted to help could afford her services through her traditional law firm model so she created The Quick Divorce, Inc.© to bring her high-end legal services to the public with a quick, efficient and very affordable solution.

Aliette cultivated a reputation for being honest, collaborative and aggressive - but only when necessary.

Despite never being one to shy away from a justified battle, avoiding unnecessary chaos and conflict in her cases became her creed and the secret to her success.

In 2016, she divorced the father of her two children, David, after 12 years together. Together they coparent and navigate the demands of raising daughters in this digital age where technology is both friend and foe. Thanks to their amicable separation, Aliette and David are not just co-parents, they are friends.

In short, her work is personal. When she advises her clients, she harnesses her years as a practitioner as well as her personal experience.

Her conclusion is that there is a better way than the conflict driven, traditional method. Resolving financial, divorce and parenting issues amicably is not only possible it should be the only way.

Her Amazon Best Selling book Just in Case! Lose Your Heart, Not Your Mind - a smart woman's guide to marriage and self-sufficiency was published in New York in 2017. It is slated to be translated and published in Spanish in 2024.

YQD® Success Stories: How Jeromy Turned His Love For Hospitality Into Content Creation | Jeromy Marcano-González | TropiBites

Mon, 02 Sep 2024 04:00:46 GMT

Episode 284 features Jeromy Marcano-González of TropiBites. We're talking about how Jeromy turned his love for hospitality into content creation. Listen now!

Jeromy Marcano-González is a proud Puerto Rican who has called Atlanta “home” since 2017. He’s passionate about all things food and beverage and has worked in the hospitality industry for 8 years.

His passion came from growing up with a grandmother who loved to cook and understood the power of food and gathering as a family. Seeing and helping her cook for these gatherings with so much love ignited a flame within him that he stills carries to this day.

Jeromy knew his entire life that he wanted to create something that was his — a restaurant, coffee shop, food truck, etc. It wasn’t until 2023 that he finally let all fear behind him and created TropiBites, an outlet to showcase the beauty of Puerto Rican and other Latin cuisines.

He now hopes to continue showing his love for food and gathering amongst loved ones, just like his abuela did, with each bite and sip.

You can follow Jeromy on Instagram, Facebook & Pinterest.

Haley and Justin Brown-Woods are a married, millennial couple that began their debt-free journey in the Fall of 2019.

Becoming a Breadwinning Woman | Farnoosh Torabi | So Money

Mon, 26 Jun 2023 04:00:51 GMT

Farnoosh Torabi is one of America’s leading personal finance authorities who’s hooked on helping you live your richest, happiest life. As a multi-bestselling Financial Author, Contributing Editor to Time Magazine’s NextAdvisor, CNBC host and creator of the award-winning So Money, Farnoosh has become our favorite go-to money expert and financial friend. The New York Times calls her advice, “perfectly practical.”

Farnoosh was born in Worcester, Massachusetts to immigrant parents who left Iran in the late 1970s in search of a more fulfilling life. Arriving with two suitcases and the promise of a small stipend from her dad’s university, the Torabi’s took a leap of faith and settled in the United States, hoping to build their version of the American Dream. It was here that her parents furthered their education, found fulfilling work, became homeowners and instilled in their children the virtues of patience, generosity and hard work.

Money may have been tight (really tight), but it was never a taboo subject in the household and for that, Farnoosh is eternally grateful. It’s what ultimately inspired her to lead a mission to help others achieve financial greatness.

Today, Farnoosh is a sought-after speaker and bestselling author. Each year she speaks at numerous events, companies, organizations and schools.

Her latest bestseller is entitled A Healthy State of Panic.

How to Pursue FIRE with a Disability | Hiroko Nishimura | 24 Villages

Mon, 05 Jun 2023 04:00:06 GMT

Episode 216 talks about how to pursue FIRE with a disability, featuring Hiroko Nishimura. Listen now!

Hiroko is a Special Education teacher turned IT Engineer turned technical instructor and published author. Money was not a topic she talked about growing up, and being a 1st generation immigrant, she had to figure out saving, retirement, and investing, when she got out of college.

In her mid 20's, she was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. When researching the "permanent disability rate" for the disease, it was extremely high, which is when she realized that maybe "working forever" wasn't an option. She came across the FIRE community on Twitter, began investing, saving for retirement, and learning about wealth building.

Hiroko began small side hustles while working her 8-5 job in IT. At 30, she got married & quit her corporate job, choosing to focus on freelance work. Half a year later, COVID began, and she & her husband bought their home on her 31st birthday. They paid off their mortgage in less than a year after selling taxable assets. Their incomes increased rapidly and her freelance work went from $20k in 2019 to $136k in 2022.

Hiroko has created a career path where she can sprint when she has the capacity, and then focus on living when her body needs a break without a break in monthly royalty checks.

You can follow Hiroko on Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, Mastodon, Ko-Fi, 500px and YouTube.

How to Make Money with AirBNB | Jorge Contreras | The Real System

Mon, 01 May 2023 04:00:19 GMT

Episode 211 talks about how to make money with AirBNB featuring Jorge Contreras of The Real System. Listen now!

From poverty to a million-dollar business, Jorge Contreras is a real estate investor and coach. He started his real estate journey over 10 years ago, and he launched his Airbnb business 5 years ago. Before that, Jorge, like many others, was overworked and underpaid. He barely had time to spend with his family, and his business wasn't exactly thriving.

How To Stop Dimming Your Light As A Mom ft. Susana Cardona | Colectva + The Mamish Community

Mon, 26 Dec 2022 05:00:22 GMT

Welcome to the final episode of season 4! Episode 190 talks about how to stop dimming your light as a mom, featuring Susana Cardona of Colectva + The Mamish Community. Listen now!

As the proud daughter of resilient South American immigrants, Susana´s leadership training began from an early age by serving as the key translator, appointment-maker, and cultural interpreter for her family. Armed with her rich, first-gen experience, Susana became a skilled cultural interpreter and business strategist in the hospitality and spirits industries.

After nearly two decades of helping men build global brands, Susana decided to bet on herself. In 2016, she launched an online platform for Latina mothers called The Mamish Community and in 2022, she opened her own business consultancy called COLECTVA—aimed at empowering and amplifying Women-led businesses.

You can typically find her sipping a cafecíto, bike riding or dancing it out with her family, and plotting her next move to empower female change-makers.

Thank you to Susana for being a really important voice in this space. There is so "mom content" out in these internet streets that is purely detached from reality and we're so here for the real-deal messaging that Susana shares with women & moms. We love the fact that she's giving mom's permission to level up and not sacrifice themselves by putting themselves first. A perfect way to end season 4 of the Yo Quiero Dinero podcast. Gracias hermana!

Thu, 13 Oct 2022 04:00:26 GMT

Unless you’ve been under a rock, you’ve heard the phrase “side hustle” in the last few years. With the growth of the internet and social media, Side Hustles (small businesses that you might run on the side of your full-time job) are becoming more and more the norm.

Tune into this week's bonus episode where Jannese and special guest, Tori Dunlap of Her First $100k, sit down to answer the community’s questions on everything side hustle. They get into their own stories of starting their side hustles and turning them into global brands.

You’ll learn:

How Jannese and Tori built their business from side hustles to their full-time careers

The 3 “T’s” of side hustles

About the guest:

Her First $100k was founded by Tori Dunlap, globally-recognized money + career expert. She built Her First $100K on the side of her 9-5 job in marketing, biding her time until she could make her dream a full-time reality.

Her commitment to showing financial feminists how to make it rain — with a show tune and a Timothee Chalamet gif thrown in — is where their story, as a team, can make all the difference.

After graduating with her bachelor's, Olga started her 14 year career in advertising, working with advertising agencies in New York, leading teams in producing and executing national and global experiential campaigns for fortune 500 companies and tech giants.

Tune in this week as these former students talk about their experiences with the Jump-Start Your Blog Bootcamp!

Episode 150 features Bernadette Joy of CRUSH Your Money Goals®. We’re talking about wealth guilt, what it is & how to manage it. Listen now!

Bernadette Joy is a nationally recognized money expert featured on Good Morning America, NBC News, Time and USA Today for her unique ability to inspire her audience to explore the intersection between net worth and self-worth. She blends a decade of experience in both business and psychology to teach more than just math, but overcoming the mental and emotional stress that comes with finances.

While she has two degrees in business and a degree in psychology, her credibility comes from truly leading by example. As first generation Filipino Americans, she and her husband AJ paid off a whopping $300,000 of debt in three years AND grew their first $1 million of net worth in their thirties. Not one dime was inherited, while transitioning from a decade as a corporate HR professional to a six-figure business owner.

She founded the Crush Your Money Goals® Academy for those overlooked and underestimated by traditional financial services. She will teach you everything you wish you knew about money, and the confidence to manage yours well.

Once you hear her speak, you'll grow confidence to make financial independence a reality, and a clear blueprint to help you get there.

How to be a Wallet Activist | Tanja Hester, Author of Wallet Activism

Sun, 03 Apr 2022 04:00:31 GMT

Tanja Hester is the author of Wallet Activism: How to Use Every Dollar You Spend, Earn, and Save as a Force for Changeand Work Optional: Retire Early the Non-Penny-Pinching Way.

What To Do When You're Feeling Stuck In The Comparison Trap

Sun, 08 Aug 2021 04:00:00 GMT

For Episode 100 of the season (!!!), our host, Jannese Torres, is spending time reflecting on her mental health triggers and the practices she’s now built as a result of them.

2 years ago, Jannese dreamt up the Yo Quiero Dinero™ Podcast as she began to deepen her personal finance journey. Realizing the field of finance was super white and male-centric, her vision was rooted in feeling like she was part of a community of wealth-building Latinas.

The YQD™ platform is first and foremost a community—100 episodes later, we’ve brought guests from a multitude of backgrounds and experiences. All in the hopes of making your dinero moves a little less daunting, and a lot more exciting and aligned with who you are.

For us, that looks like showing you the behind-the-scenes of what it takes to build a thriving business and online presence. You know that we will be the first ones to encourage you to invest in yourself; but we would be doing you a disservice if we said the journey was always smooth, enjoyable, or fun. Sometimes, it can be none of those things. So how can we continue? Our audiences. Our communities.

For full episode show notes, click here.

100 episodes later, we cannot thank you enough. These 100 episodes have been because of you: your desire for radical personal finance information, a level of engagement we love to see, and your genuine support of the platform. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

How FU Money Can Help You Pivot Your Career | Gianni LaTange, First Gen Money Musings

Sun, 20 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

Episode 93 is about how to prepare financially for a career pivot, and how to build wealth through real estate investing.

Gianni LaTange is an Afro Latinx first generation wealth builder, born and raised in NYC. Gianni is on a journey of financial freedom and is passionate about sharing wealth-building strategies with POC. In February 2019, she made a promise to herself that she would be financially prepared to start her investment property search Winter 2020. Little did she know that she would become a whole building owner in March 2020!

How To Use Your 401(K) To Pursue Financial Independence | Marie Coleman-Johns & Stephanie Stockwell, Winenance

Sun, 13 Jun 2021 04:00:00 GMT

Episode 92 is all about how to use your 401(K) to pursue financial independence featuring the Winenance sisters, Marie and Stephanie!

Marie Coleman-Johns and Stephanie Stockwell, aka, the “Sisters of Financial Independence” are personal finance educators and the founders of Winenance. Through their weekly YouTube show and podcast, investing workshops, and blog posts, they help women and people of color spend more intentionally, learn how to invest and grow wealth, and build a life of financial freedom. Having grown up financially insecure, they started out repeating the bad money habits they learned from their parents.

Though they turned things around in their 20s through growing their careers, by their early 30s, they realized that the savings sitting in their bank account wasn’t actually growing, and that wealth still eluded them. They soon found the FIRE movement and learned how to master their 401Ks and invest. Wanting to share the keys to investing with their friends and family, they took what they learned, built a PowerPoint Presentation, and started hosting Winenance Nights.

You can follow these sisters on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

How to Support Your Family Financially While Achieving Your Own Money Goals | Sarah, Savvy Savings Squad

Sun, 21 Mar 2021 04:00:00 GMT

Episode 79 is about how Sarah has financially co-supported her family, while still reaching her money goals and pursuing generational wealth.

March is Women’s History Month. All month long, we’re featuring poderosas! For Episode 79, we’re excited to introduce Sarah from Savvy Saving Squad, a poderosa educator in our schools and on social media.

Sarah is a teacher and teacher leader for NYC public schools and creator of @SavvySavingSquad, her Instagram page where she shares savvy saving and financial tips & tricks. Born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, she’s the daughter of low-income Moroccan immigrants. After earning two masters, she is now a doctoral student in an Educational Leadership, Administration, and Policy program, which she is cash-flowing (listen to find out how!)

Sarah has managed to build a lucrative career as an educator, earning 6 figures in a field where many don’t come close to that salary. She is debt-free and pursuing financial independence with her husband and she’s also managing to help her family financially while reaching her own money goals.

You can follow Sarah on Instagram.

For full episode show notes, click here.

We love episode 79 because of how central Sarah’s parents are to her money story; this is an often unspoken thread for so many first-generation wealth builders, and, really, many communities of color. If you’re young, this is a topic that’s easy to put off; in fact, it might even be one you want to put off because it brings up stress. Sarah’s been doing this since she was 22. Hearing these stories and starting to sit with these possible realities is something that can only benefit you.

Because she had finally achieved the financial freedom she needed to leave her job and become a full-time entrepreneur.

Two million downloads later, Jamila inspires listeners (known as journeyers) to eliminate debt, save more money and increase their net worth so that they can ultimately achieve Financial Freedom & Independence.

Episode Highlights:

Many of us have a ritual at the end of each year: we reflect on our year, feel a certain type of way about it, and then try to set goals for the new year. This year more than any other year got us thinking about our dinero.

So if you’re setting dinero goals, make sure they are not rooted in financial anxiety, but rather a goal to thrive. As you set your goals, reference the below steps for some guidance on how to make these clear, effective goals.

For full episode show notes, visit us here.

As women of color, we face different roadblocks towards building wealth. The most common one? Being historically, consistently, severely underpaid for our labor. So negotiate that salary. 2021, we want what we deserve.

(REPLAY) First Gen Struggles: Perfectionism, Imposter Syndrome & Mental Health | Natalie Torres-Haddad of Financially Savvy Latina

Sun, 27 Dec 2020 05:00:00 GMT

Episode 64, REPLAY, of the Yo Quiero Dinero™ podcast features Natalie Torres-Haddad, MPA, AWA, fromFinancially Savvy in 20 Minutes.

She is also a keynote speaker and educator.

What a vision!⁣⁠ Her activities have been featured in Forbes, The Huffington Post & The LA Times.

For full episode show notes, click here.

We chose Episode 64 as our final episode in our December series of FI/RE for one key reason: our financial health is intimately paired with our mental health, and vice versa. When our wallets aren’t doing well, chances are neither is our mental health. Because when you’re first-gen (be that a student, wealth-builder, or immigrant), our financial background may not have been the most stable. That means that now, as adults, we tend to operate and view our finances from a scarcity mindset.

REI Brothers is a social media outreach and education platform, where Oscar & German showcase their podcast, blog, and projects.

Currently Stationed at Camp Pendleton, California, where he is fully pursuing his dream of owning and operating multi family real estate and helping others achieve their financial freedom goals. ⁣

In 2016, German began his real estate investing experience by fixing and flipping houses in Southern California. During that time, he realized that buy and hold real estate strategy aligned best with his goals. He currently owns and operates 20 units worth $1.5 Mil. and plans to retire from the Marine Corps in 2021, and from there fully devote his time and skills to continue growing his real estate portfolio and business.⁣

Oscar has been investing in real estate since 2013. He initially attempted different real estate strategies such as wholesaling and fix & flip with a local area group. Quickly, he realized that this was not his niche. In 2017, he went the buy and hold route and purchased his first duplex. For this, he was able to buy below market value, do a minor rehab and force appreciate the asset. This opened his eyes to the benefits and long-haul journey to financial freedom.⁣

In 2019, Oscar partnered up with his brother German, with the initial intention to purchase a few properties in Ohio. That soon changed when they found a 20-unit rental portfolio. From there they networked and problem solved their way to purchasing this portfolio. Currently they are working towards stabilization and then disposition of assets. Their eyes were open on how to scale to larger assets, and from there they have set their sites on raising capital and apartment syndication.

Why Investing Is A Revolutionary Act For Marginalized Communities | Georgiy Roykhman of Funancialism

Sun, 09 Aug 2020 04:00:26 GMT

Georgiy Roykhman, better known as Funancialism is a behavioral analyst, social media content creator and Youtube influencer that believes financial health needs to be prioritized.

Georgiy is a refugee from the former Soviet Union. He learned his first lessons about investing while playing the trading card game Yu-Gi-Oh! He came to the realization that almost every inch of our institutions AVOID teaching about finances such as how terrible credit card debt is or how investing works.

Funancialism believe this is an unintentional design which perpetuates so much inequality in our society. Knowledge is half the battle, institutional change is needed – but can we really just wait around until the government changes to become more inclusive? It's up to individuals to find communities (or even create communities) that teach about investing, money hacks, and how to get financially healthy.

You can find Funancialism on Youtube and Instagram!

How Ava Became Debt Free While Teaching English Abroad | Avagail Lozano of Avagail Adventures

Thu, 30 Jul 2020 04:00:00 GMT

Avagail Lozano is a Filipinx-American originally from California but loves traveling and living the expat life.

She's the founder and creator of Avagail Adventures, where she shares her travel adventures and lessons as an expat. She graduated college in 2010 with thousands of dollars of student loans. She got her first "big girl" job, and then lifestyle inflation kicked in! After financing a car, her debt ballooned to $50,000.

In 2016, she was facing a quarter life crisis & a ton of pressure from loved ones to settle down and get married. Knowing that she wanted more out of life, Ava threw caution to the wind and moved to South Korea to teach English. She became totally debt free in December 2019 and paid off more debt working as an ESL teacher on half the salary she made while working in a corporate role in the USA. And she did it while still being able to travel all over Asia!

Set Yourself on FI/RE | Mrs. Miller from Millers on FIRE

Sun, 16 Feb 2020 05:00:00 GMT

Y’all, let’s set ourselves on FIRE (relax, this is a GOOD thing!) FIRE stands for Financial Independence/Retire Early! Who doesn’t want that, am I right? In this episode, I’m talking to Mrs. Miller from the blog Millers on FIRE. The Millers are a couple in their 30s sharing their money optimization skills and journey to reach FIRE. Mrs. Miller is a Latina and native New Yorker. She is a first-generation college graduate who is on the FIRE journey along with her husband.

On her blog, she focuses on financial independence and early retirement. Millers on Fire is full of money hacks, cost-cutting tips, money mistakes and what the Millers have learned about budgeting, saving, investing and travel hacking.

Follow her on Instagram and Twitter!

Episode 7 is for all first generation wealth builders. Mrs. Miller will affirm how you are feeling, as will Yo Quiero Dinero. Poderosa, you are in the right space. If you are trying to gain financial literacy, you are a radical. If you are trying to build wealth, you are paving the path. And if you are trying to secure the financial future of you and your family, you are a revolutionary. Being a first generation anything can be daunting. But we must get rid of our imposter syndrome that tells us we aren’t doing what we’re supposed to.

Listen to this episode with Mrs. Miller to know what to do to get started on your FI/RE path. Share with another friend to remind them that they are enough. So “enough” that they are worthy of building wealth.
