How to Build Wealth at Every Age: From Gen Z to Gen X with Maria Melchor, Money Coach
Monday, 22 June, 2026
Dr. Sarah, talks with founder of First Gen Living and author of the upcoming book "Always Have Enough: How to Build Wealth When You Don't Come From Money," Maria Melchor, to tackle real listener questions about money across every generation. From a 27 year old in West Virginia wondering whether to pay off debt or start investing, to a 58 year old asking when to take Social Security, Maria breaks down practical, judgment-free strategies for building financial confidence at any income level or life stage. The conversation covers starting small with as little as 1% of your income, navigating unpredictable gig economy earnings, choosing between a 401k and a Roth IRA, and refinancing high interest student loans.The episode also dives into the financial pressures unique to midlife and the so-called sandwich generation, including listeners juggling aging parents, growing families, and their own long-term goals. Maria shares her framework for preparing financially for kids, explains the difference between a financial educator and a financial advisor, and offers reassurance to anyone who feels behind. Throughout, she emphasizes that time, not a high income, is the biggest asset anyone has when it comes to building wealth, and that financial health is just one tool among many for living a fuller life.Episode sponsor: Certified financial & wealth advisorsAdams, Gut & Associates was recognized by Forbes as a 2026 Best-in-State Wealth Management Team, an accolade that highlights advisory teams nationally for their disciplined approach, strong best practices, client retention, industry experience, and ability to navigate increasingly complex wealth-management needs.https://www.adams-gut.com/How to learn more about Maria Melchor, Financial Coach, First Gen Living:https://www.firstgenliving.com/More resources:FirstGenLiving, LLChttps://www.instagram.com/firstgenliving/https://www.tiktok.com/@firstgenlivingHave questions about today’s episode, or anything else related to the health and wellness of your family?
