All right. So let's take a trip down memory lane. What would you say is the earliest money-related lesson that you learned from your mom?

That is such a good lesson. I think the one that stands out for me is that sometimes creating financial security requires sacrifice. So I grew up with an immigrant mother who left Nigeria in her teenage years to start a new life in the UK. She left around the age of 16. So she would go back and forth between the UK and Nigeria over the years. But eventually she settled in London.

And by this time, she had six kids and she was the breadwinner. My dad was more focused on pastoring. Yes, I'm a pastor's kid. Well, she had to separate my siblings and I for a while and put us with nanny so that she could work and create financial stability for our family.

And then I'm so proud of her because within a few years and with lots of hard work, she was able to buy a home for us to live in and we all were able to live together again. But she did have to sacrifice most of her time and also her family being under one roof in order to get there.

Another financial lesson that I learned from my mom is that you should save, but you should also use your money to do things that bring you joy. Now, I don't know how she did it, but my mom paid for me and my two sisters to go all the way from London to America on vacation to Disney World every year. And that was before we finally moved to Florida when I was around seven.

So we would stay at the Disney Resort for a week or so. Aside from that, she also invested in good quality clothing items, bedsheets, and food for herself because it made her happy. So that was another way that I connected that, you know, money is not just for paying bills, but it's also for things that bring you joy as well. Mm-hmm.

But that said, my mom was also a broken record when it came to savings. So she would always talk about how important it was to save some of your money and not spend it all. Sean, can you relate with this at all? Did you pick up any similar money values from your mom?

I love how dynamic your mom is, Sean. So for me, there is one money lesson that came to me later in life that I indirectly learned from my mom, and that's actually planning for retirement. My mom never gave me any education about retirement savings, but I do remember her retiring early when I was in my early 30s.
