Matt Manero, author of You Need More Money, believes that life starts at 150,000 a year. Though, he admits, it gets really good at about 500,000. Did your brain blank out at those numbers?

"Being able to step in and help my family when they needed me was the greatest gift I ever got," says Matt. "But I had to help myself first." Helping you make more money is exactly what Matt Manero's book is all about. So, are you ready to wake up and solve your financial problems once and for all?

Joined today by Colin Andrews of LearnCryptoFast.com, Brad explores the big questions surrounding cryptocurrency such as "What the heck is it?" "Does cryptocurrency come with too much risk?"

The biggest risk, he states, is NOT jumping on this opportunity. Why is Colin Andrews so sure? "The total amount ever invested in crypto is only five-hundred-billion" Colin explains. With so much room to grow, he says the problem most people have is inactivity. "When you don't understand something, you don't take action," says Colin.
