Episode description

Okay, bad news first: millennials are the first generation in history to be worse off than their parents (yep, studies confirm it). With homeownership rates down 28% compared to boomers at the same age and wages barely keeping up with inflation, the traditional path to wealth - buy a house, retire rich - is looking real shaky. But what if there was another way?

Enter Avion Gray, co-founder of fintech platform BeLong, who's tackling the paradox of wealth head-on. She breaks down why we struggle to save, how attitudes toward risk are keeping us broke, and why investing needs a serious rebrand. We also dive into the Boost Loan - a game-changing way to invest more now - and her best tips for funding a business (without selling a kidney).

Oh, and did we mention she’s also a stock-picking queen? We unpack Avion’s investing strategy, the stocks she holds (including one she regrets selling), and how she spots opportunities when the market freaks out. If you've ever felt stuck between paying rent and growing your wealth, this episode might just change your money mindset forever.
