In this episode of "Women Creating Wealth," host Christine McCarron welcomes Lauri Kibby, a dedicated advocate for women's financial empowerment. Laurie emphasizes that while fix and flips can be creatively fulfilling, they are fundamentally a job with significant risks, unlike passive investing where money works for you. She cautions against the misconception that fix and flips are true investments for wealth building, highlighting the labor, stress, and market cycle vulnerabilities involved. Kibby, who runs the fund at Selene Brighthouse, advocates for real estate investments that offer both cash flow and long-term growth with moderate risk, allowing women to build their overall wealth without the hands-on work of flipping properties.
