Episode 98: Millennials & Money with Emily Benedetto
/

This week I sat down fellow financial planner and Abacus financial advisor Emily Benedetto to talk about decisions millennials make around their money.

Though she has always had a penchant for numbers, she took a bit of an interesting route to becoming a CFP but now loves every minute of it. If she had her druthers she’d be living on a farm and working as a farmer/financial planner. She’s married, has 5 siblings, love reading, horses, and helping folks systematize their money lives.

HERE’S WHAT YOU’LL LEARN FROM THIS EPISODE:

  • How Emily got into financial planning and what convinced her to become a CFP®
  • The inner discovery she made by deciding to work at Abacus Wealth Partners
  • When your inner voice tells you “You can’t” how to get to “You can!”
  • Why it’s important to face the things you are afraid of
  • Emily’s timeline of getting to Abacus
  • How money relationships can evolve overtime
  • The importance of taking control of your finances
  • Two different approaches to managing savings goals
  • Which archetype category do you fall into?
  • The impact that is made going from a saver to an investor
  • Emily’s other passion besides financial planning
  • Future savings bucket to consider as you grow in your career
