Cultura and Cash is a practical and jargon-free money guide to help you tackle your finances as a First Gen Latina.

Advice and validation from a friend I wish I had in my 20s

Gigi is reliable and is like the friend who is unapologetically herself and recognizes the challenges or nuances of growing up bicultural. I thought I would benefit from the investing portion the most but was surprised to feel seen in her own stories. This is an easy listen with actionable steps.

LOVED!!

Gigi! Thank you for sharing so much of yourself and your journey. I just set up my kiddos 529 accounts and I am going to set up my nieces custodial brokerage accounts I don't to have access to the money as unhinged 18 year olds. Thank you for the nudge to all the things I've had on my todo list for a couple of years.

I would definitely want to hear more of your thoughts on the investing side.

I am a licensed life insurance agent and now I can give people an actual guide on why whole life or IUL isn't the best option for them with steps and tax logic instead of just my personal opinion. Eres un orgullo!!

Money explained well for the Latin community

I throughly enjoyed the book and I think others will too. Even though money is often times an uncomfortable subject, GiGi manages to speak on the matter with ease and relatability. Especially for the Latin community. I found myself smiling a lot throughout the book because this felt like it was genuine advice from a big sister. If you are looking to learn more about money, I highly recommend this book. Gigi put a lot of things into perspective and gave language to the Latin experience as it relates to money.
