Why Investing Is A Revolutionary Act For Marginalized Communities | Georgiy Roykhman of Funancialism Aug 09, 2020

Show notes

Georgiy Roykhman, better known as Funancialism is a behavioral analyst, social media content creator and Youtube influencer that believes financial health needs to be prioritized.

Georgiy is a refugee from the former Soviet Union. He learned his first lessons about investing while playing the trading card game Yu-Gi-Oh! He came to the realization that almost every inch of our institutions AVOID teaching about finances such as how terrible credit card debt is or how investing works.

Funancialism believe this is an unintentional design which perpetuates so much inequality in our society. Knowledge is half the battle, institutional change is needed – but can we really just wait around until the government changes to become more inclusive? It's up to individuals to find communities (or even create communities) that teach about investing, money hacks, and how to get financially healthy.

You can find Funancialism on Youtube and Instagram!

How Ava Became Debt Free While Teaching English Abroad | Avagail Lozano of Avagail Adventures Jul 30, 2020

Show notes

Avagail Lozano is a Filipinx-American originally from California but loves traveling and living the expat life.

She's the founder and creator of Avagail Adventures, where she shares her travel adventures and lessons as an expat. She graduated college in 2010 with thousands of dollars of student loans. She got her first "big girl" job, and then lifestyle inflation kicked in! After financing a car, her debt ballooned to $50,000.

In 2016, she was facing a quarter life crisis & a ton of pressure from loved ones to settle down and get married. Knowing that she wanted more out of life, Ava threw caution to the wind and moved to South Korea to teach English. She became totally debt free in December 2019 and paid off more debt working as an ESL teacher on half the salary she made while working in a corporate role in the USA. And she did it while still being able to travel all over Asia!
