First, Jesse shares an exciting new career update. He has joined a new financial planning firm - as an advisor and an owner. The new firm, Rialto, is focused on serving people JUST like those who read *The Best Interest* and listen to Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors.

Justin Peters takes the microphone around and asks Jesse the questions listeners have been sending in for months—the ones that don't quite fit into a traditional personal finance show. From career changes and family life to engineering, hiking, favorite books, pizza toppings, and what's next for the podcast, you'll get to know the person behind Personal Finance for Long-Term Investors. Along the way, Jesse also shares lessons from leaving aerospace engineering to become a financial planner, why he chose advising over becoming a full-time content creator, how he thinks about risk in his own life, and why long-term thinking extends far beyond investing.
