March Mailbag: Celebrating 100 Episodes: 529 Goals, Forming LLCs, & New Home Budgets

#100 For this episode, we asked the mamas in our free Mamas Talk Money Community on Facebook to send us their questions. If one person in our community has a question, there are no doubt others wondering the same thing. Today we’re going to discuss 529 savings goals, forming LLCs and new home budgets as we celebrate and reflect on 100 episodes on the Smart Money Mamas Show!  (1:35) Find out which episodes have been favorites for Lauren and the SMM team (8:07) Discover what Chelsea learned and loved about starting her own podcast  (10:31) Erica asks, "How do I come up with a goal for 529 savings? I'm wondering how to make a decision on whether to prioritize college savings over other FI goals." (17:13) Justine asks, "How do I choose which ETFs to invest in?" (26:13) Nicole says, "For hobby incomes at what point does it make sense to create an LLC or issue yourself a 1099 so you can write off expenses?" (29:50) Beth says, "I know we're generally encouraged to put 20% down on a new home.
