Memorable Quotes:
“Go take some action. Figure out what it is that you need as your backup plan in terms of whether that's a type of career or the amount of money you need. Go figure that out, put some time and thought into it because it's really important. You don't want to be in a position where you're stuck.” - Roschelle McCoy
“Even if you're in a position with your family, your careers, and where you are finance-wise, it's so good to instill those lessons in kids, that money doesn't grow on trees. It just doesn't flow freely. It has to come from somewhere. It has to be earned, and you have to work hard for it.” - Roschelle McCoy
