1486: From Foster Care to Financial Educator, Marc Russell, Founder of BetterWallet

Guest Marc Russell is the creator of BetterWallet, where he teaches families all around the world how to make money work for them through practical investing. His journey began as a foster child for 13 years. He was eventually adopted by a low-income family who prioritized education. Marc then self-funded his college education (Penn State) and then climbed the ranks at some of the largest financial institutions in the world. While excelling in his Wall Street career, Marc struggled with his own finances, living paycheck-to-paycheck with $80,000 of debt. He is now debt-free.
