It was great having Joshua on the show after getting to know him and working with him over the last few years. Joshua is absolutely brilliant when it comes to personal finance. Still, I was so excited to dive into a subject you don’t hear him talk about as often and glean so many great insights from the homeschooling of his five children. And the conversation didn’t stop there! Join us next week as Joshua and I continue our discussion and delve deeper into the subject of memory and foreign language learning. See you next Wednesday!Mentioned in this episode:
