This week's episode of Mindful Money with TJ van Gerven is now live!

In this episode, I speak with TJ van Gerven, a Financial Planner and Founder of Modern Wealth Builders. TJ shares his journey from growing up with contrasting financial influences—his father, a self-employed plasterer with a scarcity mindset, and his mother, who came from a more affluent background. We dive into how these experiences shaped his approach to financial planning, particularly for millennials. TJ emphasizes the importance of understanding time horizons when buying a home and the true costs associated with real estate, challenging the common belief that homeownership is always the best investment.

We also explore TJ's innovative approach to financial planning, including his use of a subscription model to make financial advice more accessible to younger clients. He discusses the value of focusing on cash flow, tax planning, and the importance of having a disciplined, rules-based strategy. TJ's insights are not just about numbers; they’re about helping people use their money as a tool to live better lives. Whether you're considering a sabbatical, navigating equity compensation, or just trying to get a handle on your finances, TJ's practical advice and genuine passion for helping others make this episode a must-listen.
