Transcript
Speaker A:

There's going to be a season in our lives where things might be a little rough.

Speaker A:

I'm suggesting to people, everybody, but particularly if you're prn, you probably want to save a little bit more grain in your storehouse than most other folk because of the dynamics around how frequently you earn income and at what rate.

Speaker A:

If we're talking about somebody that's doing some traveling.

Speaker A:

My niece is an imaging professional.

Speaker A:

There have been times in her life where she did the travel jobs.

Speaker A:

My advice to her was, hey, listen, you've got the house there in Florida when you're getting this extra bump because you're perhaps earning more money in Atlanta than you are in Jacksonville and you're getting a kicker, if you will, for housing, hey, if you're here in Atlanta, stay with me and your aunt.

Speaker A:

You know, if you're in somewhere else, you don't have to go get an apartment.

Speaker A:

Depending on, you know, how long the assignment is, stay with a family member, buy groceries, put some of that extra money up, use it for investments.
