016 Money Talks: A conversation with Jarim Person-Lynn

Hey ya'll! Happy Homegirl Thursday! This is the last episode of 2016 and I am excited to have it be about Finances! For those that have New Year's Resolutions and intend on starting fresh for 2017, you're in for a real treat! Here is a quick rundown on who I interviewed today, Jarim Person-Lynn from Brass Knuckle Finance ! Jarim Person-Lynn, is the Author of Brass Knuckle Finance & This is Why You're Broke. Founder and Wealth Coach for The Winner's Circle LLC. Jarim Person-Lynn knows all too well how the trappings of debt and poverty can derail the dreams of the inner city youth. Growing up submerged in the flossy and flashy L.A. culture through the late 90s/early 2000s and taught to buy first then think about how to pay for it later, he found himself ultimately working day and night to pay off someone else’s life. By 2007 he had found himself in $550k worth of mortgage, credit card and car loan debt. After a few false starts and partial escapes from old ways of thinking, Jarim got completely fed up with his situation in 2009 and vowed to eliminate the “Keeping up with the Joneses” status quo that had tried to claim him and so many of his friends both financially and emotionally. Beginning with free in-person one-on-one financial consultations with thousands of blacks and latinos in L.A., he would go on to also use social media to build a client base of over 1,800 for The Winner's Circle. He would also put together 5 informative books filled with everything he had learned working with so many Blacks & Latinos in getting out of debt. Now with a clothing line called "Ekonomics" that supports his signature message of “Buy Less, Live More. Screw the Joneses” along with the introduction of free weekly financial classes in community centers in and around Los Angeles, the only thing standing in his way is the very mentality of every person he is attempting to save. This time, however, its war. Further info on the various BKF programs as well as The Winner’s Circle Group can be found on www.BKFUniversity.com. He can also be found on Instagram , Twitter and Facebook We talk about EVERYTHING. from rental properties, when to hire an Accountant, leveraging student loans to get a mortgage, whether credit repair companies are legit, how to be a hybrid entrepreneur and starting a business, andddddd Polygamy with respect to finances. LOL Yes. Polygamy. I am also giving away 2 copies of Jarim's E-Book, "Brass Knuckle Finance" and how to win is in this episode as well!
