003: In this episode, we discuss the importance of self-reliance with your financial decisions and how to not let others' opinions influence you. Unfortunately, most of us go through life without always thinking about what we want. Instead, we are pushed and pulled to choose careers, buy homes, live in cities, and make purchases based on the people around us. Not anymore. Today we'll discuss how to recognize when that's happening and what you can do to avoid it. We hope you enjoy!
