In this episode, Jamey interviews Derrick Kinney - financial expert, podcast host, bestselling author, and CEO of Good Money Framework. Derrick shares insights that can revolutionize your perspective on wealth and walks us through his inspirational journey to success, unveiling the principles and determination that transformed him from an inexperienced financial planner to a Wall Street Journal and USA Today bestselling author.
Originally from Arlington, Derrick Kinney’s determination, resilience, and passion for giving shined through from a very young age. As a kid, he would keep cash books, logging any spare change he found on the ground within them. Soon after, he began earning money by charging $1 to inspect the bikes of his family friends. At the age of 15, Derrick donated money to his church food bank with the earnings from his grocery store clerk job, and that was when he realized how addicting giving away money was. He adopted the mantra “more money equals more impact” and became determined to make this his mission.
