For me, it was just, you know, parents that expected me to go into the family real estate business or maybe go to Harvard Law like grandpa. Columbia business like my dad. My older brother went to Washington and Lee University. Now, Steve, I don't know about you, but I didn't have the grades for that back in the day. The Money Mindset Mentoring Podcast by Steve Hamoen.
