0:00.0	Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Money Mondays.
0:08.6	I am here with a special guest, a special friend of mine.
0:11.7	She is an investor in over 100 companies.
0:14.2	And we repeat, over 100 companies.
0:17.8	That is hard to grasp.
0:18.9	I always talk about I'm an investor in 43 companies. That is
0:21.7	more than double what I've invested into. And we're racing with each other because she's still
0:25.4	investing left and right into companies. She's also the co-founder in a company called Junie,

0:50.9	How to make money, and invest money, how to give it away to charity.
0:53.9	All these episodes
0:54.6	range from 32 to 38 minutes for your listening pleasure because the average workout is 45 minutes.
0:59.7	The average commute to work is 45 minutes. So this episode will be less than 38 minutes.
1:03.1	So you can listen to the whole thing in one shot. Why did I say that? We have a 93% listen through
1:07.6	rate, which keeps us in the top 10 of the podcast charts because of you guys listening, sharing, commenting, subscribing, and all that.
1:13.7	So we thank you for that.
