I recently had the pleasure of joining Christina Garabaldi on the YouTube channel Financially Us. We discussed some fascinating topics surrounding celebrity finances that I want to share with you!
Joey Gr’s Credit Score: A Cautionary Tale
We kicked off the episode by talking about former Bachelor Joey Gr’s recent revelation about his FICO score. He shared that it dropped by 80 points due to missed credit card payments while filming a reality show. I explained how even a small missed payment can significantly impact one’s credit score. It’s a good reminder for all of us to keep our credit in check and consider using auto-pay features to avoid similar pitfalls.
Travis and Jason Kelce’s Podcasting Payday
Next, we shifted our focus to Travis and Jason Kelce, who just signed an incredible $100 million deal with podcast studio Wondery for their popular podcast, New Heights. I highlighted how athletes can leverage their fame beyond their careers to create lasting financial opportunities. Innovative monetization strategies can arise from such partnerships, and it’s exciting to see them capitalize on their brand.
Rihanna: The Billionaire Businesswoman
We wrapped up the conversation with a spotlight on Rihanna, who has become a billionaire through her diverse income streams, particularly with her cosmetics line, Fenty Beauty. With a reported net worth of around $1.4 billion, I praised Rihanna’s savvy business decisions and her ability to maintain authenticity while engaging with her audience.
Throughout the episode, I shared valuable lessons that I believe everyone can apply to improve their financial literacy and decision-making skills.
