Grow your money mini series: Building your Freedom Fund, with Jess Brady
from The Broke Generation · host Emma Edwards
In this second episode of my mini-series with financial advisor Jess Brady, we explore the concept of a "Freedom Fund" and why investing doesn't have to be about becoming ultra-wealthy. Jess breaks down how to reframe investing as a tool for creating choices and opportunities in your life, rather than just chasing passive income. We discuss the psychological barriers that keep people from starting their investment journey and introduce Jess's six-step investment framework. Highlights: Why Jess calls it a "Freedom Fund" instead of an investment portfolio The difference between "freedom from" and "freedom to" in financial planning How investing $5 can be a gateway to building wealth over time The shocking story of a gas station worker who built an $8 million portfolio Why market volatility preparation matters more than perfect timing You will learn: How to reframe investing as a tool for creating life choices rather than just wealth accumulation The psychological barriers that prevent people from starting and continuing their investment journey Why consistency in investing matters more than sophisticated strategies How to prepare mentally for market downturns with a "sleep at night plan" Join the September cohort of The Greenhouse here: https://courses.jessicabrady.com.au/TheGreenhouseMoneyGrowingProgramxTBG Where to find me: Website: https://thebrokegeneration.com/?v=518f4a738816 Instagram: https://instagram.com/the.brokegeneration TikTok: @the.brokegeneration Order my book, Good with Money! https://amzn.to/4jnBupb Preorder my new book, The Wardrobe Project, coming November 26th!
