In this week’s episode of Money Glow Up, host Tiffany Aliche speaks to financial journalist and financial behavior expert Stacey Tisdale to explore the best pathways to building wealth: real estate or the stock market.

Tisdale takes a holistic approach to wealth building, which begins with exploring your definition of wealth. Once you’ve defined wealth, the next step is to ”align your goals with your spending choices,” Tisdale said. “If this is what I would want my life to look like, what's that really going to cost me? Figure out what that number is, and that'll give you the motivation.”

Tiffany Aliche creates a space to share real and inspiring money stories, learn financial fundamentals, and build your future. Step into the classroom with Money Glow Up with Tiffany Aliche—aka The Budgetnista—to jump-start your financial journey.
