Intoduction to creating wealth
Welcome back to the Transform Your Mind to Transform Your Life radio, podcast, and television show. I'm your host, life coach Marnie Young. Today, we have a special guest, Angie Matthews, an investment expert and creator of the Happy Investor Method. We will be discussing how women can prepare financially for anything from recession to divorce. This is an important topic that many women, including myself, need to learn about. So let's dive right in.
Angie, welcome to the show.
“Thanks so much for having me, especially in your current condition.”
You're very welcome. It's a good thing it's not in person, right? So let's get started. Angie, is there a secret you can share with the audience that can get them started with investing?
“The secret is, and I think it's not much of a secret, but something that folks really need to take action on. And that is you need to start today or at least put a date in the calendar and make it so that you start it. Treat it as if it's the most important thing on your to-do list and don't push it off. Set a date to do something. Because for a lot of us, we have it as a New Year's resolution, and before you know it, the year goes by, years go by, and you're going to be sitting there in your 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, wondering why you didn't take action. Just saying that you were busy is not going to be acceptable for older you.”

Investing for Beginners
That's a great point. Taking action is key. Now, let's talk about a challenging time or situation that could have ruined you, but you came out with a huge learning experience.
“When I first started investing, it was during the Great Recession. I was making a limited salary and living in an expensive city. At first, I started investing with just $100. And that's really my claim to fame. A lot of people know me as saying that you can invest $100 a year and your life can change. When the value of my investments started going down, I could have liquidated like most people did. But instead, I doubled down and accelerated my wealth much faster than others who sat out or liquidated.”
That's a great lesson. It's important to stay calm and not make rash decisions during market downturns. Now, let's talk about why investing is the best way for women to build their money legacy.
