Forging Your Personal Financial Journey with Anthony J. Zhang

Welcome back to another episode of the Minority Money Podcast! There comes a time in everyone’s lives when you need to make a choice so huge that it can change how your life goes. In the case of my guest today, Anthony J. Zhang, it was the decision between being a full-time student, or dropping out and becoming an entrepreneur backed up by a VC.

When Anthony set out on his financial journey, he had to think with the end in mind and really plan out the kind of lifestyle he wanted– because he used that mindset to pave the road to building his wine and whiskey business that now sustains him and gives him the financial means to expand his own portfolio.

Tune into this episode and hopefully, it’ll inspire you on your own journey!


Highlights:

>> How Anthony formed his personal financial journey

>> Anthony’s advice for building your own financial journey

>> Learning and understanding more about digital assets and cryptocurrency
