This week, my friend and former financial planner Joe Saul-Sehy joins me for another round of Q&A in our (newly!) biweekly segment called Ask Paula!
Kicking off today’s episode, Nicky asks:
I’m young and healthy. My car is old and not-worth-much. And my personal property isn’t exactly fancy-pants.
Do I *really* need health, auto and […]

Last January, I went to a party at a trailer park that featured a huge bonfire, a few llamas, and a member of Public Enemy.
(I realize that sounds like the setup to a joke. Welcome to my life.)
While I was there, I met a former competitive chess player named Steve Gossett. Steve is […]

Spaghetti is a major part of my life.
I eat it, of course, as many people do. I also spill it all over my pants, despite the fact that I’m 33 and should’ve learned the rules of gravity by now.
But most importantly, I use spaghetti as a metaphor for my business. If I’m […]

Roger Whitney is known as the “retirement answer man.”

This week, I’ve devoted a special episode of Ask Paula to answering questions about real estate investing.
Our first question comes from Ade, who has $25,000 to invest in real estate and lives in the Bay Area. Understandably, he’s thinking of investing out-of-state, and wants to know if Atlanta is still a good city to […]

My buddy Joe Saul-Sehy, host of the Stacking Benjamins podcast, joins me this week for another episode of “Ask Paula (and Joe!)” — in which we workshop through questions that came from you, the Afford Anything community.
This week, Joe and I answer questions such as:

It’s the first Monday of the month, which means it’s time to answer questions from the Afford Anything community.
Our first question comes from a caller in a tough spot:
Her mother-in-law is 66 years old. She’s divorced, holds no retirement savings, and will only receive a tiny Social Security check. Her health is worsening, […]

You know that rare moment when you meet someone with whom you connect *instantly*?
I felt that way when I met Emma Pattee, the 26-year-old millionaire and mini-real-estate-mogul who joins me on today’s episode.
Emma and I share similar stories: we’re both young female artists and entrepreneurs who figured out that wealth is a tool […]

I’ve always taken an approach to life that puts my freedom first.
My one and only 9-5 lasted only 3 years. Since then, I’ve built passive income and financial independence through rental real estate.
And while most listeners think this is a podcast about money, it’s really about a philosophy around life that is disguised […]
