CNET’s Top Mint Alternatives

Today’s guest is Danielle Town, a New York Times best selling author as of two months ago! The funny thing is Danielle’s best selling book is about investing, a topic she admits she actively avoided her entire life. Her father, Phil Town, is a highly sought after speaker about investing and a New York Times best selling author in his own right. He wrote the book, “Rule #1,” years ago which made him a household name in the world of investing

The interesting part is that Danielle was raised by one of America’s leading financial experts. But, it took her until adulthood to really want to master her finances and it’s when she realized that her Dad might have something important after all.

Today we’ll be discussing her new book, Invested: How Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger Taught Me to Master My Mind, My Emotions, and My Money (with a Little Help from My Dad). 

A lot of you have been asking my recommendations for great books on investing. This is one of the newest and best to hit the market. 

Danielle and I explore her childhood. What was it about the friction between she and her dad that led to her avoidance of learning about investing? And what is she investing in now? It’s just ONE stock, I was shocked to learn. For more, check out www.somoneypodcast.com

Today's guest is at the forefront of financial technology: Aditi Shekar.

Aditi is the CEO and founder of Zeta, a platform on a mission to help couples master their money. Full disclosure: I am an investor in Zeta. THAT’S how much I believe in this company and in Aditi. Before founding Zeta, Aditi worked at the education company General Assembly, where she got her first taste of helping couples with their money. Today, we’ll talk about her new platform, the biggest money problems and solutions in relationships, and the benefits of the imposter syndrome. Stay tuned if you want to join the platform.
