E9: The Day I Realized $100,000 Slipped Through My Fingers
At one point in my life, I looked back and realized…
over $100,000 had passed through my hands.
Not all at once.
But between a steady stream of royalty checks in college,
and a stock investment that took off during COVID —
I had money. Real money.
And I didn’t know what to do with it.
Not because I was reckless.
Because no one ever taught me how to think about money in the first place.
This episode is about what happens when you don’t know what you don’t know.
And how those moments become the exact ones that teach you everything.
We talk about:
– What I could’ve done with the royalty checks
– How I watched a stock climb to nearly six figures
– Why I didn’t cash out (and what I’d do differently now)
– And the real cost of not having guidance early on
If you’ve ever thought, “I wish someone told me that sooner”
this one’s for you.
