“She who understands compound interest earns it, she who doesn’t understand compound interest pays it.” -Allegra Moet Brantly, Founder of Factora Wealth

According to a recent survey, people are 10 times more likely to break up with their partner if they think their partner is bad with finances. The survey also found that 1 in 5 people (20%)! think their partner is financially irresponsible.

Personal finances are so incredibly important, yet it’s something many of us, especially women, struggle with. This Love Intently episode will show you how you could be making WAY more money than you are right now, with barely putting more effort into it. We’re so excited to have our guest Allegra Moet Brantly, Founder of Factora Wealth, who went from $10k in credit card debt in 2016 to a quarter of a million dollars net worth now in 2020.

Allegra’s story is like so many of ours—she was burnt out at her corporate job, but felt trapped because she was living paycheck to paycheck (even though she was earning 6 figures!). She began researching about finances, learned so much and became passionate about sharing what she’s learned. She even talked personal finances, sharing numbers and all, on her FIRST DATE with the man who is now her fiancé!

But she didn’t stop there. She founded her company Factora Wealth with the mission to help 1 million women achieve $1 million net worth. Their signature service is the Factora Wealth Circle, which is a 12-week online course—and community—that teaches you simple, repeatable steps for financial success, confidence, and freedom.

Tune in to hear Allegra’s personal journey, and tons of advice on how to get started with building your personal wealth and advice for couples finance.

Allegra’s Three Love Truths

“Don’t listen to people who don’t have skin in the game.” Nassim Taleb

“Whatever must happen ultimately should happen immediately.” Henry Kissinger

“I began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. He taught me that if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it at full speed ahead. Embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it and above all become passionate about it. Lukewarm is no good. Hot is no good either. White hot and passionate is the only thing to be.” -Roald Dahl

About Allegra Moet Brantly

She was approaching 30, working an 8am-7pm job in New York, making over six figures…with $18K in debt. 

She was so tired of the struggle living paycheck to paycheck. She was so tired of feeling my body tense up when I checked my credit card statements. She was so tired of worrying about saving enough for my future.  

So she embarked on a financial revolution. She researched, and researched, and researched. Finance became her life. She sorted through years of blogs, podcasts, books, YouTube videos. She’s synthesized loads of financial information and strategies and now wants to share the best of what she’s learned with us through the Factora Wealth Circles!
