Yo Quiero Dinero The Lazy Way to Build Wealth with Chloe Daniels
Honestly, I don't know why it took me this long to get Chloe Daniels — aka Clo Bare Money Coach — on the show, because she is a whole badass and we have been living parallel lives for years. She went from a torrential relationship with money (including being financially trapped in a dangerous situation abroad) to becoming one of the most refreshing voices in personal finance.
Her approach is called lazy investing — and before you scroll past that, hear her out. Because when BlackRock ran 100 years of market data, the results backed it up. We're getting into all of it: the mindset blocks keeping women out of the market, why Wall Street jargon is gatekeeping on purpose, the truth about financial advisors, and the simple strategy that actually builds wealth long term.
