In Episode 72 of The Grizzly Life Podcast, Colton sits down with financial advisor and former teacher Jim Carriveau to break down the basics of money.
Jim shares how he went from teaching for 18 years to helping families build wealth, and the financial lessons most people don’t learn soon enough.
They cover:
Where to start: emergency funds, Roth IRAs, 401(k)s
How compound interest actually builds wealth over time
Term vs. whole life insurance — what’s worth it
Why income protection/disability insurance matters more than people think
Retirement savings benchmarks for your 20s, 30s, 40s, and beyond
It’s a simple, real conversation about money, planning ahead, and not waiting until it’s too late.
