Today, Angie Grainger CPA/PFS, CFP®️ and Elise Eropkin introduce the Prosperity Ladder, which is a framework for understanding different levels of financial awareness and behavior. The ladder consists of six levels: Legacy, Expansion, Readiness, Willingness, Avoidance, and Destruction. At the top of the ladder, individuals are focused on creating a legacy and funding dreams beyond themselves. At the bottom, individuals are in a state of destruction, with destructive financial behaviors and a lack of control. The conversation emphasizes the importance of increasing awareness and taking responsibility for one's financial situation.
