Plugging in is simply being invested ā showing up, taking advantage of resources, and using whatās available to get ahead in life. One of the speakers, Llew, shared his story. He admitted he didnāt have the skills to be a successful business owner or even to run his side hustle at first. But what he did have was a will. He read books. He...

We were taught history, science, and equations weāll never use againā¦ but no one showed us how to manage money, build credit, or break free from debt. Thatās why so many families are struggling today ā not because they donāt care, but because no one ever taught them how. I found this short 49-second video that breaks it down so clearly. Itās the class we shouldāve...
