A SIMPLE System for Financial Freedom: The High Five Banking Method
Friday, 20 February, 2026
In this episode of the Latin Wealth Podcast, we sit down with returning guest Sahirenys Pierce (IG: @PoisedFinanceLifestyle), founder of Poised Finance & Lifestyle and creator of the High Five Banking Method—a simple money system designed to help you build structure, reduce stress, and grow real financial confidence. Sahirenys breaks down why financial literacy isn’t just about making more money—it’s about having a system that keeps your finances organized even when life gets hard. She shares how her parents, immigrants from the Dominican Republic, worked to build the American dream, only to lose everything during the 2008 recession—and how that experience shaped her mission to teach financial education that actually works in real life.We get practical in this conversation: how to make your finances “boring,” how to separate bill money from lifestyle spending, how to build a real emergency fund based on your situation, and how to stop living paycheck-to-paycheck by using strategies like the Two-Week Gap and Cut / Keep / Reduce planning.If you want a clear system for managing your wealth, improving your relationship with money, and strengthening your financial foundation for your family, this episode is for you.Check out Sahirenys’ book here: https://thepoisedlifestyle.com/the-high-5-banking-method-book/Follow Sahirenys on Instagram: @PoisedFinanceLifestyle👉🏽 Join our FREE Latin Wealth Skool community: https://www.skool.com/latinwealth/about?ref=078b4fcec6ac41e6ad8b1024c5e45f60 👈🏽Topics covered:- The High Five Banking Method: 2 checking + 3 savings accounts- Building an emergency fund based on risk and responsibility- The Two-Week Gap strategy (stop chasing your next paycheck)- Cut / Keep / Reduce planning for hard economic seasons- Mindset shifts: escaping fear-based money decisions- Teaching kids financial literacy through household systemsChapters00:00 Financial literacy mindset: “Let your finances be boring” and why structure builds wealth04:10 Sahirenys’ story: Dominican immigrant roots, the 2008 recession, and lessons about money09:55 High Five Banking Method explained: 2 checking + 3 savings for real financial education14:10 Emergency fund strategy: how much to save to protect your wealth and reduce money stress18:40 Stop living paycheck to paycheck: the Two-Week Gap cash flow method for money stability24:45 Cut / Keep / Reduce: budgeting decisions that strengthen financial literacy during tough times31:50 Practical next steps: set up your accounts, simplify your money system, and grow wealth
