Brian Armstrong is the CEO and co-founder of Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the U.S. and the first crypto company to crack the S&P 500. He joins Nicole on the exact day Congress failed to pass the Clarity Act, a bill Coinbase has spent millions lobbying for, to break down what it actually means for anyone who owns crypto, or even just an index fund. Brian explains why he still believes regulatory clarity for crypto is coming either way, what percentage of a portfolio he thinks should be in Bitcoin, and the real difference between how the SEC and CFTC would police your crypto investments. He also digs into the fight with big banks over stablecoin rewards, why he thinks the bank lobby are trying to kill competition, and his ongoing rivalry with Jamie Dimon. ----------------------- Start investing at https://SoFi.com/MNN Private Wealth Collective: Nicole's boutique wealth management practice for people who want more than a robo-advisor and less than a hedge fund minimum.

Maye Musk is a model, dietician, and author. But before any of that success, she was 50 years old, newly single, and unable to make rent. Today, Maye joins Nicole to talk about her new memoir, Timeless, and the financial reinvention that came after everything fell apart. Maye opens up about the financial abuse she experienced in her first marriage, including how her ex-husband removed her signing rights from their joint account and took her savings, and why she still advises women to keep some money of their own, no matter how it might be received. She shares what it was like starting over in a new city with almost nothing, working her way back from a $2,000-a-month apartment she could barely afford, and the confidence it took to build two entirely new careers from scratch in her 50s. Then, Maye and Nicole get into why she didn't become a full-time model until her 60s, how she reframes aging as an asset instead of something to hide, and the mindset that let her keep saying yes to jobs, rejection, and reinvention well past the age most people consider their prime. Here's what Nicole covers with Maye: 00:00 Maye's Life Starting Over at 50 02:00 Not Being Able to Pay Rent for the First Time 06:38 Escaping a Financially Abusive Marriage 08:41 Why Maye Advocates for Women Having Their Own Bank Account 11:02 Starting Over With Nothing 21:45 Confidence, Rejection, and Getting to "One Out of 20" 23:04 Becoming a Full-Time Model at 60 26:36 Why Age Became an Asset, Not a Liability 27:11 Having to Stop Her Practice as Her Fame Grew 37:31 Tip You Can Take Straight to the Bank ----------------------- Start investing at https://SoFi.com/MNN Private Wealth Collective: Nicole's boutique wealth management practice for people who want more than a robo-advisor and less than a hedge fund minimum.

You can effectively invest alongside billionaire hedge fund managers like Bill Ackman, David Einhorn, and Warren Buffett through specific financial vehicles such as closed-end funds, publicly traded management companies, reinsurance floats, and ETFs that mirror top holdings—though each comes with timing lags, fee structures, or valuation discounts that investors must understand. The key to smart exposure is recognizing that a great investor isn’t automatically a great investment, and buying at a discount—especially in December due to tax-loss harvesting—can enhance returns.
Jim Kwik, a brain performance coach who has worked with Oprah, Will Smith, and Richard Branson, returns to Nicole Lapin’s Money Rehab for his third appearance to discuss how brain health is the foundation of wealth. He argues that our greatest asset isn’t money or AI—it’s the mind—and that cognitive fitness, memory, focus, and emotional regulation directly impact financial success. The conversation explores how over-reliance on AI risks creating 'digital dementia,' the importance of micro-commitments to build momentum, and why wisdom now matters more than information.
To set your child up for long-term wealth, start early with tax-advantaged accounts like a custodial Roth IRA, 529 plan, and brokerage account. By legally paying your child for legitimate work through your business, you can fund their Roth IRA with tax-free growth potential—potentially turning a small early contribution into $1 million by retirement. Combine this with term life insurance to protect their financial future and consider front-loading 529 contributions to maximize compounding.
Running a profitable business doesn’t require genius or relentless hustle—it requires systems, frameworks, and self-awareness. Codie Sanchez argues that boring, overlooked businesses like laundromats and pest control are often the most reliable paths to wealth, and that true ownership means building a business that thrives without you.
At just 22, Kate is already ahead of the curve with strong financial habits like automating savings and investing, but she struggles with guilt around spending and constantly moving goalposts. With guidance from Nicole Lapin, she creates a sustainable spending plan that balances future security with present enjoyment, emphasizing automation, high-yield savings, and long-term compounding. The key takeaway is that financial success isn’t about perfection—it’s about consistency, psychological sustainability, and leveraging time to let compounding work its magic.
Yung Gravy, the rapper known for his viral music and unexpected financial savvy, joins Nicole Laffin on Money Rehab to discuss how he turned a $30,000 options bet on 1-800-Flowers during the early days of the pandemic into $400,000, his broader trading strategy, and how he’s built wealth through both music and investing. He reveals a 653% return on over $200,000 in total investments, while emphasizing long-term ownership over fleeting fame.
