Manage episode 381747689 series 3379125
“My job was to help really wealthy people not pay taxes. So, as I remember that client complaining about the several $100,000 tax bill, I was just thinking about how many hungry kids that could feed, and how many single moms that could provide child care for so they could actually pick up more hours and buy coats for their kids for that winter. And I began to realize I was living in this big disconnect.”
Ever pondered how psychology intertwines with financial planning, or how your family's financial habits shape your monetary mindset? It's a fascinating exploration, and it's exactly what our host Ed Coambs discussed with Joy Slabaugh in this latest podcast episode.
