Show notes

When Facebook went public, 88 employees saw the value of their equity exceed $30 million. That’s the dream right? But not only is this dream rare, it can actually turn into a nightmare if you don’t ask your company the right questions about your stock options. Today Nicole talks about how to protect yourself from this nightmare scenario with Tracy DiNunzio, a brilliant entrepreneur who built and sold the luxury resale company Tradesy. Nicole and Tracy explain what you should ask your employer about your equity, and if you get a job offer with a large equity component, how to evaluate if the opportunity is a good one.

Show notes

You may have seen the viral clip of Jared Bernstein (former Chair of the Council of Economic Advisors for Biden during the Obama Administration), fumble through answering the questions: if the United States just makes its own currency… why would it ever borrow money or go into debt?

Nicole taps in to answer this question today and along the way, explains the new economic school of thought— Modern Monetary Theory— that is turning this question on its head.

As promised, here is the cringe-y clip: https://x.com/FindingMoneyDoc/status/1786050601236779078
