đ 2026 Plutus Award-Winning Podcast!
Helping late starters win on the journey to financial independence. Hosted by Dr. Bill Yount and Jackie Cummings Koski, CFPÂŽ, this show breaks down money topics without judgment. Bill and Jackie were both late starters who reached financial independence in about 10 years after they woke up. Since virtually no one else was serving late starters, they started this channel to fill that gap because the average American is a late starter.
Always remember: Itâs never too late to start, Itâs better late than never, and Itâs always the right time to âCatch Up to FIâ
