    Setting goals can be put in the same kind of category as making a budget. They seem lame, they are definitely something that you don't talk to your friends about at parties BUT they will change the course of your life!
    These can be tough conversations to have with yourself and it is always good to have an accountability partner through the goal making process. Since both of our wives hate listening to use talk about money, this is the perfect opportunity to use each other and help one another succeed. 
    In this episode, we not only want to talk about the goals we have for the podcast, our personal lives, as well as personal finance, but tell you some things we have learned about setting goals. Tips and tricks that may help you get started on your journey to setting goals or help you fine tune the ones you already have for yourself!
    Sit back, relax, grab a pen, and let's do this!Happy New Year!

    This is one of the most fun episodes we have recorded to date. This week Brad puts JJ on the "Hot Seat" and asks him some of the most popular interview questions that author and podcaster Tim Ferriss uses when interviewing some of the top names in the world.  JJ had no idea what the questions would be and you will hear his answers live and first hand. These questions deal with success, money, happiness, contentment, family, and business. We found our selves going deep and personal with some of these questions and learned a lot about each other. At the end of the day this single episode helped reinforce the strong bond with have with success and financial independence. 

We encourage you to press pause after each questions and answer them for yourself. Bring your answers to life in our private Facebook Group "Average Money". Thank you so much for listening. 
Cheers!

    This question comes in from a 22 year old with some student loan debt. He just graduated and has the option to hold off on paying his debt, which is common when you graduate from school. Most will give you the opportunity to defer a few months till you find a job. He also has the opportunity to enter a loan forgiveness program. All that aside, he has been doing a little bit of investing in the market and is wondering if that is right move considering he has that debt. Should he pay off his debts, or defer his payments and keep investing to take advantage of his young age and the power of compound interest. This is a heated debate in the the personal finance space, so tune in to find out what our opinions are on this topic. Our answers may surprise you.

While starting to talk about ways to save money we hit the pause button and said "hey you come up with 5 and ill come up with 5 and well record it live while we tell each other".

Some we agreed with, some disagreed with, some we STRONGLY disagreed with!Sit back, relax, and have a laugh with us this week while at the same time learning 10 ways we plan to save money in 2021.

    Bruce YouTube: UCl0It9cuBpyq7MSvAPQnGWwBruce Insta: https://www.instagram.com/brucewannng/?hl=enThis week we had an awesome opportunity to sit down with Bruce Wang. Bruce is probably most well know for his YouTube channel, but the information he shares there is just the tip of the iceberg. Bruce has a wealth of knowledge about money and the personal finance space and we were lucky enough to get to pick his brain. After college, knowing that he did not want to jump right into the rat race, he spent a few years in Cambodia where he first tested his skills in entrepreneurship. This venture lead to his early videos on importing and selling hover boards in Cambodia. 
    As a natural saver he came back to the states, and with the help of his brother and The Bigger Pockets Podcast, purchased his first duplex with his wife and they started down the path of real estate investing. This single venture has now expanded into over four units in the Northeast of the US. 
    Bruce shares how real estate investing, dividend stocks, and entrepreneurship has allowed him to live Financially Free as the young age of 32. Thanks again for spending some time with use Bruce!
