I didn’t grow up with a wealth plan. I grew up with rent, food, and transportation fighting like WWE champions for my parents’ paycheck. As a first-generation Nigerian-American, I inherited more than my family’s resilience — I inherited the pressure to be the “family retirement plan.” In this episode, I share:<br /><ul><li>How losing both my parents reshaped my view of time and money</li><li>Why high income doesn’t guarantee financial security</li><li>The cultural money scripts that keep first-gen professionals stuck</li><li>The systems I built to reach financial independence at 37</li></ul>If you’ve ever looked at your paycheck and thought, “Where is all this money going?” — this is your episode. 🎧 Listen in for real talk, cultural truth, and a new way to engineer your financial future. If you want, I can also make a shorter, punchier version of this for YouTube or Instagram captions so it hits fast and boosts clicks.
