Summary

The "system" isn't fair. Names from Ray Dalio to Bill Gates talk about income inequality. Poverty is often swept under the rug by people who want to easily dismiss it as "not pulling yourself up," yet most know it isn't that easy. One man who knows very well how difficult inequality can be is John Hope Bryant. He came down to the basement to talk about "getting the memo" in 2017, and we've been talking about it ever since. To kick off rewind week (if you're new to the show, we play favorites for a week after eight weeks of new podcasts), we're excited to re-share this episode. Enjoy!

0:00.0	Pre-recorded from Joe's mom's basement, it's a rewind episode of the Stacking Benjamin Show.
0:08.5	Hey everyone, I'm Griffin the intern, or like Joe's mom's lawn care guy likes to call me the Fintern.
0:14.2	I don't know how forward-thinking the guys who run this podcast are, but I think it's highly suspicious that the off week just so happens to coincide with
0:21.4	National Golf Day.
0:22.7	Even more curious, National Golf Day is circled on Doug's holiday calendar.
0:27.1	These guys have clearly been planning today for a while now.
0:30.1	But does anyone ever invite me for a few rounds of golf?
0:33.5	No!
0:35.1	Well, the joke's on them, because what they don't realize is that most real golf courses
0:39.2	don't have windmills and bumpers. And because I can already hear Doug complaining about how real
0:43.6	golf isn't fair, I know the perfect interview to play for when you feel like life keeps dropping
0:48.2	you in the rough. Back in 2017, Joe sat down with John Hope Bryant for one of the most inspired discussions we've had here in the basement.
0:56.4	John believes that, sure, some people may be born into the right family, neighborhood, or grew up around the right friends.
1:02.5	But even for those of us born without all the right ingredients, John says it's up to you to get your life on par and achieve the financial freedom you want.
1:09.9	And of course, this is still a full episode,
1:12.1	so we'll also have headlines, Doug's trivia, a Haven Lifeline, and more.
1:16.4	And like I mentioned earlier, this episode is from 2017,
1:19.7	so don't get excited about any giveaways or investment discussion
1:22.5	talking about current markets.
1:24.6	Enjoy, Fintern out.
1:35.2	Ay, yai, yai, aye, is a word with one letter, me, Maitis.
1:39.8	Live from Joe's mom's basement,
