In this FPF episode,  Alex and Trent discuss using a virtual assistant to create more time for money making activities. This episode was a little early on in the making which is why we have it as a FPF, Trent recently hired a Virtual Assistant (VA) to help his business grow. We talk about the why behind his move, how it has helped so far, and what he expects out of it. We will revisit this topic later on when he has had some serious time to really analyze how productive it has made him.

In this episode, it is time... the inner marriage counselors in Trent and Alex have come out. They dive deep into why it is cool to talk finances with your partner... friends, family, etc. To many times have we seen problems in transactions because partners are keeping things from each other. You are a team in this so how can you work together when you keep things from one another? You can't, talk about finances, make it normal and not such a grey area.

In this episode, Alex and Trent talk about the world of social media influencers and to be aware of who you idolize. To many times people think someone is living this awesome life but in reality it is just a image they portray. This is big in the real estate industry for people to "fake it till they make it" and when it comes to buying a home, you want someone who genuinely cares about you, not the money! Fact check the people you look up to on social media. The biggest piece of advice we can give is look at the engagement, numbers don't lie.

In today's episode, Alex and Trent talk about what most will refer to as "side hustles" but we like to call them streams of income. What is something you can do to generate an extra bit of income each month? How do you actually get to that point? We answer these questions and give tips on how to get started. Take a hobby, something you are passionate about, & turn that into a monetized stream of income.

Being around people that are where you are want to be is one of the best ways to get closer to your goals.

Have a great weekend!
