188- The Immigrant Experience with Money + How To Become the Ultimate Go Getter with Shinjini Das
About this episode
Shinjini Das of Das Media Group, comes on the podcast this week to talk with me about the immigrant experience and money. As first or second generation immigrants, we have a unique experience navigating through America and becoming financially educated. What makes our experiences special is that they are all different.
Shinjini was the undergrad commencement speaker at her University, Georgia Tech and then went on to become a competitive public speaker and entrepreneur. Shinjini refers to her community as Go Getters and empowers them with actionable advice to achieve their goals.
In this episode you will hear more about Shinjini's story as a first generation immigrant and how she uses DCU for her banking needs. She also shares why it is important for her as an entrepreneur to have separate personal and business accounts.
In this episode you'll learn:
- How helpful it is to bank with DCU
- Why Shinjini is passionate about banking with DCU
- Why it is beneficial to separate personal and business banking accounts and much more...
