Skipped Sneakers Bought Stocks Ep. #1
Skipped the sneakers, grabbed the stocks— Welcome to my wealth journey! 🏆 In this series, I’m sharing how I shifted from copping sneakers like Air Jordan 5 Olive and Nike Air Max 97 to building a dividend portfolio that works for the future me. S/o to everyone chasing financial freedom—this is for you. Whether you're into stocks like SCHD, VTI, or VT (yes, I break those down) or just want to start investing on a budget, this series simplifies it all. No fluff, no courses—just real talk about growing wealth, one brick at a time.

Got credit card debt or student loans? No shame here—let’s talk strategy and how to balance that while investing.
