Creator Science with Jay Clouse

In this episode, I am going to discuss the Creator Science Syndicate. I just launched the syndicate to connect you to the companies that you use and love.

If you're not familiar with the word syndicate, it's an investing term. I'm going to try to give you a crash course in financial education to understand what a syndicate is, if this is new to you, how investing works, and how you can get involved in the Creator Science Syndicate.

In this episode, we're going to do another listener mailbag.

Instead of doing a guest interview as I typically do, I'm going to do a question and answer. 

I'm going to start with the questions that I got from members of The Lab, then I'm going to transition to Twitter, LinkedIn, and then finally Threads. I'm going to answer as many questions as I can before I lose steam.

Tori Dunlap was originally on episode #88 of this show back in January of 2022, and a lot has changed for Tori. Now Tori is the founder of Her First $100k.

Not only has Tory launched a podcast called Financial Feminist since being on the show and has one of the top business shows out there, but she has also launched a book by the same name, Financial Feminist, and it is a New York Times bestseller.
