Quotes: “The first thing I recommend to every client - I don't care if their net worth is 250,000 or zero - The most important first thing to do is make sure you have an emergency fund.” - Amanda Kinderman “We're not taught in school about credit, about retirement, about savings or any of that.” - Amanda Kinderman “I wish I would’ve known how important it was, as early as possible, to start investing in a retirement of some sort.” - Amanda Kinderman “A lot of people think that financial planning is not available to them. They think you have to have a minimum amount of money to invest. They think you have to have a certain net worth. They think it's going to cost so much to meet with an advisor and thankfully advising is becoming more and more accessible to everyone.” - Amanda Kinderman --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/theconfidentwomanpodcast/message
