Hello my name is Latrice and I am currently 22 years old. All my life my immediate and extended family has had financial problems. I wasn’t taught proper money management. When I was 19 I had my first part-time job and I worked with a man who told me to invest. He pumped me with advice all the time. I really didn’t think I was listening but two years later I realized I had been.

I was working at a new job for a year then and received my 401k package. I was surprisingly excited, I had been thinking about my future alot over the last couple of months and didn’t know where to start. I went my bank and saw a financial advisor and he gave me excellent advice. I maxed out my 401k at 18% and four months later I started a Roth IRA. I was feeling more confident and aware of my future. I still get negative remarks from my mom, she disagrees with how I chose to utilize my money. But that doesn’t stop me.

But there was still one issue bothering me. I had no money saved up in my checking account and failed a savings account two times previously. I do not know how to save up for emergencies, if I have money I have to spend it. That’s when I picked up Smart Women Finish Rich and I am slowly trying to not live pay check to pay check. His words are inspirational and I will succeed.

I've been honored to appear on NBC's Today Show over 100 times and have been featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show, CNN, Fox News, CNBC, and more. My work has been profiled in The New York Times, Forbes, TIME, and The Wall Street Journal.

At seven, my grandma handed me a stock certificate instead of a Happy Meal. That moment sparked my lifelong mission: to help you take control of your money and build lasting wealth.
