I came across a controversial tweet that read, “If you’re getting 8 hours of sleep every night, you aren’t working hard enough.” This reminded me of another statement I recently heard: “If you aren’t earning 6 figures, you aren’t working hard enough.”

Each week I join Natalie Lizarraga on NBCLX to discuss the latest finance topics.  In today’s episode you’ll hear our discussion on how hustle culture has us believing these false statements and how we can create our own definition of success that doesn’t revolve around what we earn.

Should you focus on maxing out your IRA before investing in stocks? The idea of investing is extremely popular right now, so when a listener wrote in with this question, I knew it was one I wanted to dive into.

Amanda Holden joins me to discuss how this question really isn’t an either/ or issue, and why we are hearing this question more often.
