Episode description

In this episode Thomas and Treyton start out talking about the difference between investing and gambling and how they really aren't the same thing at all.

Then we answer a question from our audience on how to save for short term goals. Most people don't segment out and save individually for each goal, you will hear us explain how and why it is so important to break up your savings goals.
