42. How to Create and Grow Real Wealth Even After Divorce with Chris Odegard

See The Upside - Overcoming Obstacles and Doing Life a Little Better Everyday

What if I told you that everything we've been taught about money is wrong? That the best thing you can do to manage and build your wealth is to totally reframe how you think about it?
That's what this conversation with Chris Odegard is all about. Chris believes that we've all been given well meaning, but outdated advice. There are new important ways we can make our money work for us to create and manage significant wealth and freedom, even after divorce.
In the interview we address so many areas of wealth including what being wealthy even means, (hint - freedom!), how we learn about money and why it's not a great place to frame our strategy from, how to get better advice and so many ways we can expand our beliefs and understanding of what's possible financially. Even if we're getting divorced late in life or have experienced significant loss financially. There is always a way to shift that narrative and tangible ways to change our strategy. SO much great info here.
Some of the topics we cover in the interview:

• Why being a conventional investor may not build the wealth you think it will
• How creating assets that bring in revenue can give you incredible freedom
• Why continuing to go to school isn’t always the best way to building wealth
• What to do after divorce when your income and revenue streams are diminished
• Why changing the way you think about money is the most important first step to building wealth
• Why debt isn’t always bad
• Working as an employee may not allow you to build the wealth you really want
• The reality of your returns and tax benefits from a 401k and why there may be a better way to invest your money
• Why the people you hang out with can influence your wealth status
• What exactly is passive income and how you can create it
• The best ways to expand your knowledge on money and investing
• How to calculate the number that makes you rich that’s unique to you
• How tax codes determine our investment behavior and how to make them work for you

I am wholeheartedly committed to expanding my own knowledge about money and investing and love getting new perspectives. Every conversation is an invitation to step up and embrace new possibilities and opportunities. I want all women to have freedom to live a life free from worry and stress about money. And we CAN! The first step is to believe it, the second step is to start learning and sharing as much as we can. Take a listen and please share and review. xoxo
