What up #wealthgang.
OK, so whenever there’s economic uncertainty, there’s opportunity en masse — and this pandemic is no different. But we’re not about that COVID-19, we’re about that COWEALTH-20. 🔥
(Yes, really. #cowealth20)
Anyway, in spite of things being the way they are, there’s still money to be made, connections to foster and a life that goes on.
As a result of that, we’ve launched a series right here on WealthLAB TV called #MoneyTalks, dedicated to unlocking opportunity while the ‘Rona got the world shook.
Introducing #MoneyTalks on WealthLAB TV…
For that, we’ve enlisted impact investor/wealthlab.co editor Philip Michael as de facto WealthLAB TV host to help break down some ways to start investing, build a better network and capitalizing on opportunities during this pandemic.
“There’s no better time than now to start investing, start building a new skill set or just expanding your network,” says Philip, who started in 2014 as a writer with $79 in seed money.
We’ll be dropping daily vids, with gems dropping en masse on a variety of topics.
