071: Investing in Emerging Markets with Cole Shephard

The Federal Reserve is printing more money than ever before in history. In fact, 40% of the money in circulation was printed within the last two years!

Money is often viewed as a taboo topic that most people don’t like or want to discuss openly. You’ll often hear parents advising their kids never to ask how much someone makes or how they make it because it’s rude.

Secure in the coveted top 1% of his field, Derrick is also author of the acclaimed Good Money Revolution and host of the popular Good Money Podcast.Derrick’s “good money” mantra stems from this basic premise:“If you’re not making the money you deserve and you’re not making the impact on the world you’ve always wanted, there’s a better way for your money.”Tune in to my conversation with Derrick and learn how to make your life better by connecting it to a purpose.
