EPISODE 8 - Giving Back

Our video podcast has been all about your personal finance, how to handle your money wisely. One topic too many people forget about is how to "give back" to their community. Generosity provides rewards that go BEYOND the money you have. So many are financially worse off than you. They have daily struggles too, but with NO resources, the struggles get amplified.

Today's guest is Mena Estafanous. He and his brothers started "Project Sandy", that allows THEM to give back to their community, by providing for the homeless and less fortunate. It has grown into a project to allow OTHERS to give back as well.

​What could be their motivation? Mena's family gave up everything they had in Egypt to come to the United States for better opportunities. Now, as US citizens, they want to share the fruits of those opportunities with others who are lacking resources. It is simply they all have grateful and thankful hearts, and would like to spread that around to those in need.

Come hear his story and find out how YOU can help this young man make a difference.

First time home buyers often have no idea what they are getting into before they sign on the dotted line. But even 2nd and 3rd time home buyers can have difficulty navigating the process. Our special guest, Lisa Robinson, talks with us about the process and what you should be thinking about, and be prepared for, if you are considering buying a home. Lisa is a realtor with United Real Estate in Richmond, Virginia. With 13 years experience, she helps put her clients at ease as they make one of the largest decisions of their lives.

EPISODE 5 - FINANCIAL PRINCIPLES (PART 2)

Have you ever wondered, "How can I make the most of my money?" The only answer is, "follow financial principles". But WHAT are "Financial Principles"? The principles we talk about are typically common-sense ideas on handling money. Today we talk about “Putting your money to work for you” and a very complicated sounding one, “Limiting debt to income-producing assets”. And while it may sound complicated, we’ll break it down into simple terms. Come listen and tell us what you think!

EPISODE 4 - Financial Principles (Part 1)

Have you ever wondered, "How can I make the most of my money?" The only answer is, "follow financial principles". But WHAT are "Financial Principles"? The principles we talk about are typically common-sense ideas on handling money. The BIGGEST violation of a principle that keeps people from achieving financial freedom is "Spend less than you make". It's so simple, so common sense, and yet, the hardest to apply. We'll explore this principle plus more in this episode. Come listen and tell us what you think!

EPISODE 1 - How money works

On our very first show, we will be talking about "Why we need to know HOW MONEY WORKS".

How much do you know about how money works? Most people know practically nothing. This is not an insult, but a simple truth. Your hosts, Kevin Beers and Bert Robinson didn't know anything either until the entered the financial services field. We are never taught even the most basic principles of handling money.

Side note - I stated a date of 1649, I found a correction that it SHOULD have been 1494!

​So join us as we learn more about our money to help YOU get into a better financial position. Most changes in how you handle money are minor, but they reap MAJOR results.
