Former Disney star Christy Carlson Romano reveals what really happened to her money after Even Stevens, Kim Possible, and Cadet Kelly. From making seven figures at a young age to lifestyle inflation, financial mistakes, debt, budgeting, and eventually investing in index funds, Christy joins Brian and Bo to unpack the money lessons fame never taught her. They discuss how to recover from financial mistakes, build wealth after starting over, teach kids about money, use a Roth IRA, avoid lifestyle creep, and create a healthier relationship with money—proving that a high income and true financial independence are two very different things.
