In this episode of the Prosperity Thinkers Podcast, the focus is on the importance of philanthropy and giving forward. The hosts discuss the concept of the “velocity of money” and how participation in initiatives like kiva.org can help move money and improve one’s own personal economy. They highlight different ways of engaging in philanthropy, such as donating small amounts to causes important to the individual, using donor-advised funds, and even creating a family foundation. Spencer and Kim agree that engaging in philanthropy can provide a sense of purpose, align with one’s values, and create opportunities for families to bond and work together for the greater good.
