Ep. 16: HAPPY 2021! This is the year to get your finances in check. In fact, you're late to the party, but don't sweat it. Amy Robinson, my Texas Exes Mentor, is here to help you. Amy is a 26-year-old real estate business owner and low-key minimalist, which have both greatly shaped her views on money - Saving, spending, and investing. She grew up in Plano, TX, yet fell in love with the big city life when she enrolled as a business student at UT Austin. Amy (through a ton of trial and "I hate this s*it") found herself with a major in Marketing and a real estate license by the time she was 21 and decided to pursue a career in ATX real estate right out of college. She and her business partner/best friend, Hannah Mickey, have built a business together over the last 2.5 years that not only works, but also allows them the freedom and flexibility to pursue their passions both personally and professionally, and the opportunity to retire early. Amy has learned over the years how to start and run a lean business, invest in the future she's excited about, and budget like a champion. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lashermanas/support
