Building Your Money Machine with Mel Abraham

Today’s guest is a cancer survivor, best selling author, investor and podcast host of The Affluent Entrepreneur, Mel Abraham. I’m so excited for you to gain all the gold nuggets from Mel (ah-ha moments AND literal wealth building tips you can implement today) in this episode! Instead of being on the treadmill trading hours for dollars, he’s sharing how to build wealth, buy your time back, and have more freedom in your life. Mel breaks down the basics of creating a money machine in the simplest way and how you can get started investing with just $500. He'll show you how to pay off debt while still building wealth habits. Beyond talking about money, something we should all be able to talk about, you'll love his perspective on finding joy along the journey. Financial freedom is about so much more than money - it's about living your fullest life.
