Confidence is key, but confidence is earned.
And Anne Mahlum has earned hers.
She has dedicated her life to self-improvement and continuous learning. Because of that, combined with her insanely positive attitude, she’s built a networth of well over $100M.
Her confidence in herself is evident. In fact, she once turned down a significant investment into her start-up in favor of using her entire personal net worth instead.
In this episode, Anne reveals the origins of her drive and how it has evolved into a healthier motivation. She shares the stories of her nonprofit and for-profit ventures, complete with detailed financial insights. And Anne also opens up about her personal spending and investments, challenging the conventional wisdom of the “don’t spend your principal” rule.
This is Moneywise, a podcast where host Sam Parr is joined by high-net-worth guests to explore exclusive insights into personal finance and lifestyle tailored for other high-net-worth people, or those on their way. They'll get radically transparent about the numbers, revealing things like their burn rates, portfolios, and spending habits.
