Welcome to Episode 5 of our 7 Money Mistakes series!

🧠 Not all money advice is good advice.
And acting on the wrong advice? That’s a mistake you can’t afford.

In this episode, Gene Natali — CEO of Troutwood and a longtime financial literacy educator at a collegiate level — explores one of the most dangerous financial missteps: taking advice from unreliable sources.

From viral internet trends to celebrity-backed investments, people often act on hype — not facts.

👉 Think GameStop.
👉 Think FTX.

Even well-known names got it wrong, because they didn’t fully understand the products they were investing in.

Gene emphasizes a critical mindset:
💬 “You can’t get your money back once it’s gone — so ask better questions before you invest.”
Finance isn’t about following the loudest voice — it’s about making informed, intentional choices with your money.
