Welcome back to a special Episode of the Howdy Do That Podcast! Today, we're welcoming back Vu Nguyen from Ep. 3 to discuss all things money and personal finances.
Vu and I love nerding out about personal finances, and this episode provides a look into the mistakes we've made and lessons we've learned over the years. We hope that you'll find something helpful in this episode that you can easily apply and implement into your financial journey as well.
Talking about personal finances can be a really vulnerable conversation, so thank you Vu for being so willing to share your experiences with me and others.
