Hello Friends! It is Black History Month in the US ♥️. To us, this month is incredibly important. Every year we find the dialogue about our shared history is getting richer. Are there plenty of concerns? Yes, there are. Opportunities to act? Yes, there are. And in the current focus our personal understanding of the ongoing contributions to all that we are together increases, and the world – at least the one close to us – gets better and becomes fuller. #thankyou

This week we have the pleasure of chatting with David Derryck, serial entrepreneur. We met David in his role as Chief Impact Officer at SaverLife.org, a non-profit fintech that employs gamification and behavioral science to build savings habits for low to moderate income individuals. Most recently, David launched BuyBlack.org to drive traffic and revenue to Black-owned businesses using web3 tools. Today we talk about both.

❤️ It’s the season of love, affection, and a little pampering! Celebrate with joy and let us help you catch up on the latest in retirement security. Grab some chocolates, get cozy, and dive in!
