Lessons to Getting to a Profitable Laundromat Business - Episode 48

Today, I want to talk about something that's been on my mind a lot. Did you know some families pay as much for childcare each month as they do for their house? That's right! For example, I pay $3,400 a month just so someone can take care of my kids while I work. That's the same as my house payment! It's crazy expensive, and it's not just me feeling this pinch. I read an article from the U.S. Department of Labor that says childcare costs a lot of money everywhere in the United States. This makes it super hard for families to afford to have kids, and it's tough on the people who work in childcare too. They don't get paid very much, which doesn't seem fair since they do such an important job. Can't wait to hear what you think, so be sure to let me know!

In today's episode, I'm super excited to share a special story with you. Imagine going on an adventure in a big amusement park, where instead of rides, we're exploring the world of investing. My friend Mawuli Vodi joined us to chat about how he learned to make money work for him, even when he didn't have to work for it! Mawuli grew up in a family that worked super hard, but money was always a bit tight. He became super curious about investing and turned that curiosity into a career as a stockbroker. Now, he loves teaching people just like you and me how to understand investing, so we can save and grow our money for really cool things in the future.

About our guest:
Mawuli Vodi, a former stockbroker and financial consultant with over nine years of experience, embarked on his financial journey out of curiosity and the desire to understand the complexities of investing and the stock market. Not coming from wealth, Mawuli sought to fill the gaps in his financial knowledge by diving into an internship at a brokerage firm during the 2008 mortgage crisis, a time he regards as the most educational period of his life. Recognizing the lack of financial education in traditional schooling, he founded Financially Present to share his knowledge and experiences, aiming to equip others with the tools to navigate personal finance, investment strategies, and risk management. Mawuli is committed to creating a culture of financial advancement and literacy, ensuring that future generations are better prepared to build and sustain wealth.
