This month, host Matt Watson, CEO and founder of Origin, is joined by Haley Sacks, also known as Mrs. Dow Jones, who creates hilarious, educational content all about finance for her 1.4 million social media followers. With a combination of pop culture, humor, and education, she reaches both millennials and Gen Z and has managed to do the impossible: make finance cool. Sacks was recently named one of Money.com's 2023 Changemakers and one of TikTok's Most Inspiring Women in Business by INC Magazine. She was also just featured as one of the few financial influencers women actually want to listen to by TIME.

Here’s what Matt and Haley talk about on the newest episode of Money Talks:

• How Haley’s start in the entertainment industry led her to eventually become Mrs. Dow Jones

• Her experience with trying to learn on her own, and why she used comedy to make finance education more accessible to the average person

• What it’s like being a prominent female voice in the financial space, a space that is normally male-dominated

• Why exploring the finance double standards between men and women and bringing awareness to them is important to understanding your finances

• She debunks outdated financial advice and shares how to get the right resources

• And how striving to be average in your investing will multiply your financial returns
