Lori and I recently went to visit her 95-year-old grandpa and we were lucky enough to ask him a few questions regarding money. In today’s episode, you’ll hear the story of how Grandpa Al was able to pull his family out of financial ruin after his business burned down 65 years ago, and what his biggest investment regret is. 

 

His reflections illustrate that if you’re willing to do whatever it takes to boost yourself up and sacrifice your daily comforts for long-term prosperity, anything is possible. He also explains how if he had practiced delayed gratification and invested in some discounted land before building his dream house, he would’ve been $6.5 million richer today. Listen in to hear more of Grandpa Al’s wisdom and how we can all extract lessons from older generations. 

 

IN THIS EPISODE, WE TALK ABOUT:

• The two tools that Al used to dig himself out of debt and into absolute abundance
• Being honest with yourself if you’re truly doing everything in your power to improve your financial situation 
• Practicing restraint and realistic budgeting strategies 
• Why I always preach listening to your intuition when it comes to investing
