1031: Ask Farnoosh: Affording a Home, Repaying Student Loans and Retiring Early in a Recession

From home affordability to student loan repayment to retiring early, Farnoosh and special co-host Georgia Lee Hussey address the latest questions from So Money listeners, amidst the economic crisis. Georgia is Founder and CEO of Modernist Financial, which is on a mission to build a world where progressive people feel permission to enjoy today, while also investing in our common future. Georgia is a queer female founder who started her career as a writer and artist and then went on to spend a decade working in finance as a CFP. She was baffled by the industry’s lack of transparency and culture of conformity, which inspired her to launch a different kind of firm – one that truly centers individuality and self-efficacy. Modernist Financial has been named one of the largest LGBTQ+ owned businesses in Oregon and one of Portland’s largest wealth management firms.
