Manage episode 330386866 series 3354700
Live from the 2019 TRIO Fall Conference, NC State alumnus and economic intellectual, Ahmed Monley and senior undergraduate student, Esmira Poladova, talk financial investments, insecurities, and inspirations. Following Ahmed’s formal presentation, the two talk one-on-one with TRIO advisor, Sarah Wright, to recap some major take-aways. They address the reality that there is no “get rich quick scheme” to sustain us all nor a single profession that can automatically grant us the wealth we wish to have. Ahmed and Esmira share some hard truths, as well as humorous adages, about managing the kind of money and financial stability that every TRIO student aspires to have. They also share how the TRIO Fall Conference itself, has given them the opportunity to reflect on similar experiences in their chosen career paths and given them a space to appreciate all that life has to offer as underrepresented individuals in the professional world. This episode was recorded Fall 2019.
