Julia Collins

more heavily invested in the market because what I discovered in that practice is I'm only okay at angel investing.

So I'm not overweight in that part of my portfolio.

I do my angel investing as an act of love and giving back to the community.

I'm smart enough about who I am to know that's not going to be the thing for me.

But I needed to track it and measure it and learn it, right?

I learned about crypto early and taught myself that.

I learned about the market.

I learned about real estate.

And I just taught myself like, what is a really beautiful, risk-adjusted, diversified portfolio for you to run your life around?

Where I learned was, you know, wise friends, aunts, uncles, friends who had made money, mentors who were willing to talk to me about money.

I had a boss once who was like, Collins, you need to get a 401k.

I was like, oh, but then I won't have the money to go out and go to restaurants.

He's like, just do it.

So I think you can find along the journey people who are going to advise you.

But the important thing is do it before you have the money.

Get good at money even before you have the money.

Yeah, because you had that plan early on.

Yes, I had that plan early on.

And I think then when the money came...

I had a much more rational and disciplined approach to how to deploy it because there is a little bit of a mind scramble.
