Your Financial North Star | Skee Orr | Growing Money with Sean Trace

from Growing Money with Sean Trace · host Sean Trace

I sat down with Skee Orr, fee-only fiduciary and co-founder of Kinetic Wealth in Knoxville, Tennessee, and this conversation shifted something for me. We grew up in similar places - Western North Carolina, not a lot of money, not a lot of financial guidance, and that shared background made this one feel real. Skee breaks down what it actually means to be a steward of your money, why fee-only financial planning eliminates conflicts of interest that most advisors won't even admit exist, and why so many people feel shame or confusion around their finances before they ever get started. We talk about legacy, not just what you leave for people, but what you leave in them, and Skee makes a case that the 401k is the single most powerful wealth-building tool available to almost everyone, and most people aren't using it right. This isn't about getting rich quick. It's about knowing your North Star and making intentional decisions that actually reflect your values.What's one money belief you grew up with that you've had to completely unlearn as an adult?
