Miss403bHelpful?
June 27, 2023
Scott and I have had some great guests on our Teach and Retire Rich podcast. But I doubt we have ever had one as engaging and dynamic as Yanely Espinal, author of the new book Mind Your Money and the Director of Educational Outreach at our favorite non-profit, Next Gen Personal Finance. She also runs the hugely successful fin lit YouTube channel MissBeHelpful which has racked up more than 4 million views.
The co-founder of Next Gen Personal Finance and our funder, Tim Ranzetta recognized her talents years ago after interviewing Yanely for his podcast. He soon hired her to also work for NGPF. Tim joked with us that we weren't allowed to steal her for 403bwise. But if we ever did — kidding, Tim! — we like the name Miss403bHelpful.
In all seriousness do yourself a favor and listen and or watch our two-part interview with Yanely. And get her book for that person you know whose money needs a little minding.
Stay wise and well (and mind your money and help others mind theirs)
