Hey, I'm Shawna Compton Game. This is Millennium Money. And today we have an awesome guest with us, Jane Barrett, from Gold Bean.

Jane's been a guest on our podcast before. So I'm so excited to welcome you back. Thanks so much for joining us again.

Thanks so much for having me, Shauna. It's awesome to be here.

Fantastic. So for our listeners who maybe aren't as familiar with a gold bean, I was wondering if we

could just start out.

Give us a little background about Gold Bean, what you guys are up to, and, you know, the

awesome service that you provide to millennials.

I would love to.

So Gold Bean is an online investing platform.

It helps people get started with their first portfolio.

So if you're already really rich and you're already really confident with your money,

there's plenty of options out there for you.

If you're just starting out and trying to figure out how do I grow my

100 into $200 or my $1,000 into $1,000, we're the place for you. So it's really about,

we say we're an education first advisory business. We truly believe that people should

understand what all those crazy words mean. And as soon as you understand the words,

you realize that it's actually not that hard after all. We help people get started with their first

portfolio based on where they shop. And I think the biggest insight that comes from, I worked with

big companies and big brands for 20 years, like we've all been trained from both

as consumers, right? So you know companies, you know brands, you know products, and yet when

someone says, okay, let's go invest, you're like, oh my God, that sounds so scary. You've known

Coca-Cola your whole life, right? You've known Apple probably your whole life if you're a millennial.
