Most people think to build wealth you have to amass a lot of money and get on a hot stock tip or get lucky with a multiconglomerate business.

But what if that thought was wrong?

What if all you needed to do was invest $100/month to begin building wealth?

In this episode Odell interviews financial expert AreJay Martin. In this episode they discuss:

- How AreJay was able to save $25,000 and pay off $50,000 worth of debt.

- How to simplify investing so that even a teenager can explain it.

- Why it's important for your financial advisor to be financially savvy themselves.

- What you should do if you don't have money to invest.
