Everyone's Talkin' Money

Did you know that you could build wealth with franchise investing? The idea of franchising started way back in the Middle Ages, but it really started to pick up steam in the 1960s with the creation of turnpikes and President Eisenhower’s Interstate Highway System. That’s when franchising really had its heyday, but in the last couple of decades, franchising has been looked down on and passed over as an opportunity to build wealth. But the tide is changing. Our guest, Kenny Rose, CEO and founder of FranShares, created a platform that democratizes franchise investing so it could become accessible to everyone. The beauty is that you no longer need to own a franchise, which could cost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Instead, you can invest in franchises and generate passive income for much less. It’s an interesting concept for sure, and I’m personally happy that franchising is having a renaissance because it’s a business model that has worked for so many people it would be silly to overlook it. In this episode, you’ll learn: What is franchise investing? What makes a franchise profitable? Why should you invest in a franchise right now? And so much more, you’ll want to take notes on this episode. LinksFranSharesKenny on LinkedInSPONSORSThanks to EarnIn for sponsoring the show.

You can tell me, what’s your favorite thing to spend money on every week that just makes you feel good? These little treats, we all do them. And guess what, we all feel really good when we make an impulse buy - it’s like a quick dopamine hit, a rush. So that you know, you’re not alone - 55+ million people on TikTok have created a trend called “little treat culture.” It’s a trend where people impulsively treat themselves for a quick boost of happiness. So, with 55+ million people strong, I think this is something we need to talk about. On today’s episode, Ashley Lapato, money and lifestyle expert @theorganizedwallet, helps me break down little treat culture. Ashely says, “Eliminating impulsive spending isn't the solution, but unsubscribing from the narrative that “little treats” mean you're bad with money (ahem, avocado toast). Instead, give yourself permission to budget for impulsive "little treats," knowing that it will bring you joy today and won’t take away from your financial goals tomorrow."LinksAshley on TikTokYou Need a BudgetSPONSORSThanks to Factor for sponsoring the show.

This vault Ask Shannah episode was inspired by a question from Bri: "Thank you for being the FIRST person to support me through my financial journey as an adult. I’m currently healing from many different emotions surrounding money. My question for you is about credit cards with perks. I got a few cards totaling 4,000 that I’m paying down, but I didn’t realize I was doing a disservice to myself by not utilizing cards with perks (travel, rewards). Should I be moving toward paying off and closing 2/3 of those cards or pay off/down and try to add those smarter cards to my life? Thanks again for all you do, you’ve changed my life for the better. I’m not as afraid of money as I once was."LINKSCreditcards.comCredit KarmaNerdWalletCredit SesameShould I Close My Credit Card SPONSORSThanks to Factor for sponsoring the show.

To be successful in investing, you just want to make sure you don’t make a few mistakes that most investors make. The biggest mistake is not knowing what you are doing when it comes to investing.
