Real Money Pros

Financial advisors Brian Wiley (Gen Xer) and Jeremiah Bates (Millennial) sit down for an honest conversation of one of society's notoriously maligned groups: Millennials. Baby Boomers and media love to blame a litany of woes on this 73 million strong group, but ultimately, they're not so bad, and ultimately, they're the future of politics, markets, and everything else.

What sets these not-exactly-kids-anymore apart? Surprise! It's technology, and a general lack of the knee-jerk fear that can plague older generations. This early adopter attitude will continue to drive most industries, eventually leaving many folks behind.

Then, a preview discussion of InvestU, Brian's upcoming project that aims to help younger investors navigate a sometimes intimidating industry with modern solutions.

Then, Sen. Mike Crapo sits at the head of the Senate Banking Committee with a historic piece of legislation in his lap: The SAFE Banking Act. This measure would allow banks to hold funds from the massive and ever-growing cannabis industry, greatly reduce money laundering and organized crime, and increase the safety and security for industry workers. 

Holy Crapo! Cannabis Banking Reform Makes Surprise Headway
