Ep 25: Financial Literacy and Dancing Geckos with Peter Bielagus
Coming in hot to the diner this week is financial literacy expert and surprise fiction author, Peter Bielagus! I shared a pretty embarrassing story about a dancing geckos hoodie I bought that turned into a funny episode throughline. I asked Peter to tell us about how he went from being a money management speaker into a fiction author and it turned into quite an endearing moment about his childhood. I asked him, how do you jumpstart an old dream? He also shared about his brief career as a voiceover actor and the switch from that to teaching financial literacy internationally. He dropped some real pro-tips for listeners about the untapped value of Unclaimed.org and a dirty little secret about planning for retirement. Lastly, one of my favorite moments of the episode was when Peter shared multiple stories around his fear of blood. This was a good one, y’all!
