About this episode

Looking to be a better investor in 2024? A few simple adjustments could help your money work much harder for you this year, and our hosts are here to lend a hand!

In part three of our four-part money tips series to kick off 2024, Mindy and Kyle offer some top-notch advice on how to invest your money this year. You’ll learn about the importance of tracking your finances year-round, savvy retirement planning, and, if you’re a real estate investor, putting some of your “lazy” equity to better use!

Beyond investing, our hosts provide several money hacks that will help you chip away at your expenses this year—whether it’s taking advantage of autopay or annual-pay discounts or pivoting to a low-cost phone plan. Finally, they discuss how spending money can actually propel you toward your FIRE goal!
