In this episode of the Grow2Gether podcast, we're joined by Manny Blue who is a Personal Financial Coach, Philanthropist, Visionary, and Entrepreneur.
Manny Blue got a taste of entrepreneurship at a young age selling his unwanted toys to his friends at school. As a teenager he pursued a career in music during which time he traveled nationally and Internationally on tours and promoting his music. Manny now dedicates his time to helping families understand the importance of financial education and securing their financial future which is something close to his heart, as 5 years ago he nearly "lost it all" and is now passionate about sharing the information he got his hands on and learned with others.
Some takeaways from this episode:
- Using and building credit is a key part of financial education but most people don't know how to use credit to their advantage and leverage it. Instead, they use credit to buy dumb stuff and splash out on every given sale - like Black Friday.
- Self-confidence and money are linked and this is why most people find it hard to talk about money because they don't have self-confidence and feel like money defines them.
- One of the greatest things the next generation can do is to seek education and knowledge outside of the state/traditional education system as there are a lot of things that you can learn like financial education which they don't teach you at school.
- There's never going to be a "right time" to do something whether that 's to start a new venture, go traveling, or start securing your financial future. Sometimes you just have to pull the trigger and just do it.
- Plus, much much more!
