In this episode we discuss common questions we see from beginner investors, not relying on strangers on the internet to give you good advice and how to quickly check out a company and start doing your own research. We also give a few options for shortcuts if reading company financial reports sounds too boring!

In this episode we get the audio right. We also discuss whether or not we are working our dream jobs, what that means exactly, we dive into the shifting employee-employer dynamics, work ethic, and YOLOing your way through life. Oh, and we also get attacked by a bunny.

In this episode we record on a terrible mic again - I promise you this will be the last time. We also bring a very special guest on the podcast - Jordan's wife Melly! She walks us through her upbringing with money, the traps that she was lured into, and the story of Jordan and Mel overcoming their debts to get to the life that they have today.

We've got links for you!
