Jill On Money With Jill Schlesinger

It’s February, time for a bonus episode on how to talk to your special someone(s) about money. That “s” is intentional, because we need to expand our financial conversations from our partner/spouse to all of our loved ones: the romantic ones, the kids and the parents. To help us navigate the process, we're joined by Benjamin Seaman, an active member of the New York City therapeutic clinical community. We touched on a variety of topics, including: Talking to a spouse/partner: You know that stress about money causes a lot of relationship issues. The conflicts usually occur because each of you arrived into adulthood with a different relationship with money. When I conducted research for my book, The Dumb Things Smart People Do with Their Money, I found that your family of origin shapes these feelings and habits, for the good and the bad. Keep that in mind as you talk to your partner about money and know that he or she may come from a dissimilar circumstance and also may be hardwired differently about finances. A

Digital minimalists are all around us. They're the calm, happy people who can hold long conversations without furtive glances at their phones. They can get lost in a good book, a woodworking project, or a leisurely morning run. They can have fun with friends and family without the obsessive urge to document the experience. They stay informed about the news of the day, but don't feel overwhelmed by it. They don't experience "fear of missing out" because they already know which activities provide them meaning and satisfaction. Man oh man, that is music to my ears! That’s why I’m so excited about our latest guest, Cal Newport, with us to talk about his latest book, Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World. Now, Newport gives us a name for this quiet movement, and makes a persuasive case for its urgency in our tech-saturated world. Common sense tips, like turning off notifications, or occasional rituals like observing a digital sabbath, don't go far enough in helping us take back control of ou

Money is unlimited. Time is not. Become financially independent as fast as possible. In 2010, 24-year old Grant Sabatier woke up to find he had $2.26 in his bank account. Five years later, he had a net worth of over $1.25 million, and was known as "the Millennial Millionaire." By age 30, he had reached financial independence. Along the way he uncovered that most of the accepted wisdom about money, work, and retirement is either incorrect, incomplete, or so old-school it's obsolete. On the show to discuss his brand new book, Financial Freedom: A Proven Path to All the Money You Will Ever Need, Sabatier delivers a step-by-step path to make more money in less time, so you have more time for the things you love. The book challenges the accepted narrative of spending decades working a traditional 9 to 5 job, pinching pennies, and finally earning the right to retirement at age 65, and instead offers readers an alternative: forget everything you've ever learned about money so that you can actually live the life y

When does it make sense to sell an asset to accelerate the student loan pay down process? What if you have a rental property out there while you're still trying to pay off some significant loans. Should you sell the house and wipe out the loans?  That's the discussion on the latest call with Stephen. Have a money question? Email me here.

When it comes to the world of social media, I guess you could say that I see it as a necessary evil. While I do see the value in it, by no means have I perfected it. That said, there are people who dominate the social media landscape. They’re known as “influencers.” Today on the show we have one of the original influencers, Cynthia Johnson. With nearly two million Twitter followers, Johnson has become known as the go-to expert on all things branding when it comes to the various social media platforms. Hence the name of her newly released book, Platform: The Art and Science of Personal Branding. Platform is the why-to, how-to handbook for everyone who wants to develop and manage a personal brand. In Platform, Johnson explains the process of going from unknown to influencer by achieving personal proof, social proof, recognition, and association. Johnson herself went from an on-staff social media manager to social media influencer, entrepreneur, and marketing thought-leader in just three years using her pr

It’s only January but we already have an early candidate for interview of the year. His name is Chieh Huang, and he’s the CEO of Boxed, an online and mobile membership-free wholesale retailer that offers direct delivery of bulk-sized packages. Founded in 2013, there’s really one simple idea behind Boxed: make shopping for bulk easy, convenient and fun, so you can focus on the things that really matter.  But there’s much more going on behind the scenes, especially in the HR department, and that’s really what got me interested in having this conversation. As companies large and small define and redefine the American workplace, cultivating a mission-driven culture has taken hold among America’s most successful startups. This culture is not just about free snacks and nap rooms - it is about creating an environment where feedback is not just encouraged but actively sought by upper management. How do companies make this happen? What can you do in yours to cultivate a mission-driven culture? Chieh Huang has such

I'm a big fan of the FIRE movement. In case you haven't heard, FIRE stands for "Financial Independence, Retire Early." Who wouldn't want that? Our latest caller, Jon, certainly does, and we talked about whether or not it's realistic given his situation. Have a money question? Email me here.
