When Katia Chesnok couldn't find wealth-building resources that resonated with her experiences or were powered by educators that looked like her, she taught herself how to reach her financial goals. Chesnok's process to financial freedom, paying off nearly $40,000 in debt in 18 months, is documented on economikat.com. She continues to share money-management insights and practical investing advice regularly. In a recent Instagram Reel, she shared, "When I realize I'm the oldest daughter, first-gen, & the one in charge of generational wealth & breaking generational curses . . ." We can relate!
