“Money comes and goes but the relationships you create last forever” this guy is so insightful and representing the nurses!! His mom would be so proud !
He not really a great guy, most of the thing he doing is for himself meaning he doing it because he hope someone would of done it for him or hoping someone will if he ever needs it. Also he didt even pay off his own student loan debt but want to start a scholarship
Its really great to give back because the person you helped will also help another person in the future. Giving back is a seed of love, inspiration and good karma. Its viral and contagious. Continue to make your mamas proud everyone
He's giving back because it's the right thing to do. Plus, when we give, we help others in need. Those same blessings are returned to the giver as well. It's how the Heavenly Father God designed things to work, it's wonderful. Everything is returned to the person, whether good or bad, that is done.The same is true with money, when we give.
I doubt it. Nurses only been paid like this during covid... Covid is over and pay has come down to right about six figures. So I highly doubt it with his purchases and his spending habitsz
A strong support system will get you further in life than you can go on your own. It’s truly a blessing to have people that genuinely have your back. Way to go Aspen!
Successful investing is hard work because it means disciplining your mind to do the opposite of human nature. Buying during a panic, selling during euphoria, and holding on when you are bored and just craving a little action. Investing is 5% intellect and 95% temperament.
Government policy has thrown the future under the bus for decades. The day of judgment is near. I predict an 80% drop in the stock market. Investors will abandon stocks in favor of real estate. There will be no money in banks... You must devise a strategy for survival.
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to over $750k.
Recently, I've been considering the possibility of speaking with consultants. I need guidance because I'm an adult, but I'm not sure if their services would be all that helpful.
I've shuffled through investment coaches and yes, they can be positively impactful to an individual's portfolio, but do your due diligence to find a coach with grit, one that withstood the 08' crash. For me, “Rebecca Nassar Dunne” turned out to be better and smarter than all the advisors I ever worked with till date, I’ve never met anyone with as much conviction.
We need more people with a caring heart. He's a great guy. He has a good soul. Most nurses do. It seems like he has a full life and a good support system. Blessings to him and his 🤍
has a cancer survivor, I want to say thank you to you for choosing to be a travel nurse. as well as all nurses traveling and not traveling. I can't image what you guys go through everyday. so thank u, thank, thank u
I have a lot of friends in the travel nurse space, and you guys are heroes fr. literally the people that kept us afloat during the pandemic. thanks for all that you do and I hope you make even more money in the future!!
@@Yaowza1227 that's only if you never want to settle down. Most travel nurses I know don't have stable relationships or married. It's similar to flight attendants as you can't maintain a relationship when your never home.
Time consuming and wears you down physically, mentally and emotionally. My friend was a travel nurse out of college. Made alot of money going up and down the east coast. But it wore her down. She stopped in her early 30s, had a brain aneurysm and some other health issues. Luckily, sjlhe was very frugal and had in many of her contracts that her clients paid for her living expenses. So, now she's slowed down jer work schedule to part time, but she has alot of savings and investments. Got married recently and I believe is trying for kids.
I love these videos. Aspen is like many of the nurses I've interviewed on my channel. He's got a good head on his shoulders and even though his spending is high in some areas... He's helping his friends and family, and he's investing his money in areas that allow him to grow his relatively passive sources of income. And I love what he says about money coming and going but relationships lasting forever.
You are right my friend. Travel doctors make bank too. I’m friends with one and he was getting 200k for 6 month contract. 😬 I do know lots of travel nurses and they do well but I recall some of the agencies hire them as independent contractors and they have to file own taxes so it can get messy if not organize. Might differ depending on agency though.
He’s incredibly hard working and generous. I hope that he gets some help with managing his finances so that he can save and pay off his debt. He could easily be debt free with a lot in savings with his income and investments.
Bingo. I was wondering how are you an unmarried man without kids making $187k/year in SC and still have student loan debt. That makes no sense. NONE. And like others have said, where are his savings and investments in that pie chart.
@@tacrewgirl I watch a lot of financial channels, and it seems that a lot of younger people are still waiting around to see if their student loans will be forgiven and stuff. He's one of those people that doesn't mind carrying debt. He also spends way too much money eating out and stuff. He's probably one of those people that does all the stuff/buys all the stuff he didn't get to do when he was a kid. I know A LOT of people like this.
He’s done very well for himself… I use to live in Spartanburg SC.. cost of living is low… Bruh is making a killing… continue to be money smart and invest your money wisely. Blessings to you 🙏🏾🙏🏾
dude is an awesome role model. Comes from a great family and is actively paying it forward. @CNBC Make It - any link for us to support the scholarship?
Some of the greatest and well deserved human beings come from South Carolina. I’m also from South Carolina. Keep doing Great my brother, you earned it!
Awesome story, he was taught early in life about proper money handling.Very refreshing, hats off to him, truly. Plus he gives back. Well done sir, to you and to your mother for teaching these principles.
This guy works hard in an important field and makes a killer income, but the money is sifting right through his hands as fast as he gets it. But I do respect how charitable he is.
@@BeastMode19799 yea if he has to start paying his student loans cuz pause is over AND travel nurse pay decreases AND no one wants to do airBnB (BECAUSE we are all paying back our student loans and cant afford to travel) he is in trouble. Or if he gets injured and can't work. Nursing isnt something you can do injured
He seems like a great guy who had excellent guidance from his mother & grandfather, in addition to his relationship. My favourite episode so far due to his generosity.
Awesome video! Saving lives and earning money is one of the best opprotunities out there! Way to be an inspiration my guy! Keep going! Thanks CNBC Make It!
We need more Millenial Money videos !! I love watching these ! It is very interesting to see what people are doing with the money at all stages of life.
This video just randomly popped up on my feed and I’m glad it did. I’m from Spartanburg, SC born and raise and currently residing. I love seeing the success of those around me, definitely motivating to say the least. Great Job Aspen, keep up the great work.
Kind of goes with the territory when you're a travel nurse. He's actually spending under 10% a year of his salary on food. Not great but not outrageous either.
Remember with his contracts they are giving him a travel/ food allowance weekly, so it’s ok if he eats out. My biggest concern for him is sustaining stable health insurance. He probably should enroll in one if the Affordable care Act market plans to keep consistent medical insurance, one unpredictable injury or illness between coverage gaps can wipe out his savings! Also at his age he should invest in a IRA account fund, for retirement benefits! He will need supplemental retirement benefits when he reached retirement age, social security will not be enough to cover his expenses. Should also invest some of his money as well. When the college loan is no longer deferred he needs to pay that off too!
It seems like his mom and step dad sparked his enthusiasm to be a travel nurse at an early age. The importance of being raised in a two parent home shouldn’t be underestimated.
@@loujon191 She didn’t mention race or color in her comment. I believe you did that. How is she the racist one when you attributed her comment to his skin color?
OOO this dude is solid and he's only 29! Maybe I missed this in the pie, but would like to see him diversify some of his assets a bit more (i.e. put a bit more towards retirement). Real estate is great though. I also loved this the nursing scholarship...warmed my soul!
Love this one he’s doing his thing and just like a southern man he’s got southern man values. I appreciate that he’s looking forward to being married and has that on his mind. Seems like he has a great woman right now that he’s with ❤️ may the blessings continue to flow on him amen
I think he doesn’t have any savings currently because he put a large portion of money down to buy two properties. That was about 60k there. Your average person doesn’t even have half of that saved so it sounds like he had savings at some point. He probably will get his savings back though rental income. I just hope he doesn’t put himself in a bad situation going overboard with helping family and friends.
Its called building equity with investments. Of course that can turn into a liability but definitely keeping thousands of dollars saved in the bank is not a good idea. The us dollar is depreciating each year so definitely investing into safe assets is better than keeping money in the bank. Obviously he has savings but he ain’t going to say that in a video anybody can see.
@@blakejonathan4505 In the current interest rate and house price situation, buying a house is not a good idea. It's better to save money and put it in high yield saving accounts.
@@blakejonathan4505 calm down lol. I promise it’s not that deep. It was an opinion based on the context given in the video and people’s comments on the video regarding no mention of savings. Just about all of these videos they reveal how much they put away into their 401k and savings each month so it left the assumption he had none. So I responded to that. Regardless, the man is doing well.
@@MsStarryNights I agree, they always indicate how much is contributed to savings and investments from the budget shown so it's fair to assume he is not saving or just didn't save anything during that budget month.
I'm here for this young man earning this much so young and enjoying his life. Nursing is not easy especially now with the shortage so he needs to enjoy every bit of it while he can.
This was such a great video being in the nursing myself self-discipline is to staying in the green 💚 he truly is on the right pathway to staying successful love it blessing to you, the family 🙏 you had great role models to kudos to your mother, grandparents 🙌 n giving back will keep you blessed!
He sounds like a stand up guy. A guy you wish to have as a brother. For his sake I would like to see him put money towards his debt and savings. His monthly expenses seemed very high. But overall I liked that he’s generous with helping out his community.
Oh! This is awesome to watch!! Very inspiring and the best part of this, he LOVEs what does. He is not in the nursing profession soley on money. He gives back. I see so many nurses from various backgrounds....who need spiritual cleanses before working with people.
The problem with coming from a poor background is that you want to help everyone you know. But you can’t save everyone. Giving away 1,600 may feel good at the moment but the truth is it isn’t sustainable. He isn’t going to be a travel nurse forever. At someone point he won’t be able to travel as much, and he’s going to go back to a normal salary. he should act like his salary is a experiencing a short term boost and invest as much as he can. His property isn’t cash flowing. He should focus on getting better at real estate and start building long term wealth then he’ll be in a position to help people for a sustained time. People who come into money should focus on sustainable giving and not unsustainable giving
His parents were travel nurses. So he most definitely did not come from a poor background. How did you arrive at that conclusion? Think before you speak, otherwise it just sounds like prejudice 🙄.
I am so proud of Aspen. He has a compassionate heart. As an RN, we go through so much and this King deserves all the great things going on for himself. And congrats to his parents and his family for raising a respectable and responsible man. It’s great to see a hard working and a successful RN on this segment.
AGREED! Instead of black men want to be rappers (and black girls want to be Instagram models)🙄. We need more black men to be nurses, doctors, lawyers, judge.
Love the video man. Its great that you’re not only helping save lives, but your giving back to those close to you. You seem like a selfless person which is fantastic, and we need more people like us willing to set good examples. I don’t know the story behind your friend who is incarcerated, but I would recommend leaving him behind. It’s clear that you’ve both taken 2 completely different roads, & ultimately their actions landed them where they are now… no fault of anyone else. They have to be willing to help themselves too & that starts with staying out of trouble, but also they had the chance to set a better example for our brothers & well they chose not to. Of course you don’t have to take my advice. I love everything else you’re doing… Keep doing you, you’re obviously doing big things & I’m glad I got to hear your story 🙂👍🏾
Worries me. Too many stories of our black people becoming needy themselves because they were too generous while the money flowed. Rethink gifts to family, and instead have a “private” fund to be generous for legit needs when they come (because they will come). You just don’t seem to be in a position to give scholarships. That time will come, and it’s not when you’re in debt yourself. Real talk, you seem to living the life of a future you. No shade intended at all. When we grow up poor in our community, we start thinking a good salary means we have a lot of discretionary income to give/spend…when that discretionary income should be earmarked for securing our future so that we can then bless family, give scholarships, etc. I’m like you in wanting to do good from an early age. I’m now at a relatively young age where I can and do give generously. If I had done this at your age, i would not be able to be as generous as I am able to be…not then, not now. Putting on your oxygen mask first, as the cliche goes, is not selfish.
His scholarship is in honour of his mother who obviously instilled excellent principles in him. Even him helping others shows his character which is worth more than money. He had investments, he seems fine to me. His approach is wonderful and works for him, he doesn't have to be like you.
Aspen needs to get the Chase Sapphire Reserve with the way he's using. The amount of points he will accumulate. My god. He can buy first class to Singapore in no time.
I love the fact he said he has a friend in prison and he sends money for him, if it was him his friend would've done the same thing for him, true friendship🤝a bond will be broken💯
It's wild to me that he earns so much yet it seems like he spends every penny. I saw that he dabbles in real estate and said that debt is a necessity (or something along those lines).
I'm wondering if his wife saves for the two of them since she is a travel nurse as well. Maybe he takes care of the expenses, and she just saves. Idk just a guess. 🤷♀️

Loved the video, keep up the good work

Amazing story! Well done 👍🏾
Thanks for all you do. Your mom did a good job.
Your making us proud my brother!!!!
The irony of him going without periods of health insurance while being a travel nurse is not lost on me.
That’s a lot of us nurses unfortunately
Really strange good rates for health insurance is locked behind jobs. Glad I’m free from that BS.
His parents hipped him to game early. Shout out to them!!! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

$1,440 a month on food is egregious
It’s more than his mortgage!
Kind of goes with the territory when you're a travel nurse. He's actually spending under 10% a year of his salary on food. Not great but not outrageous either.
It's more expensive when you're traveling. Harder to make meals, & travel nurses usually work 12hr shifts so more food away from home.
Gets a stipend for food housing
Remember with his contracts they are giving him a travel/ food allowance weekly, so it’s ok if he eats out. My biggest concern for him is sustaining stable health insurance.

Just about all of these videos they reveal how much they put away into their 401k and savings each month so it left the assumption he had none. So I responded to that. Regardless, the man is doing well.
@@MsStarryNights I agree, they always indicate how much is contributed to savings and investments from the budget shown so it's fair to assume he is not saving or just didn't save anything during that budget month.
He commented above, he has $50,000 in liquid assets
No criticism, he’s doing well. Just need to see more towards savings or retirement though.
I'm here for this young man earning this much so young and enjoying his life. Nursing is not easy especially now with the shortage so he needs to enjoy every bit of it while he can.
Wait.... Nothing is saved?

This so relatable. I live one hour from him. I am happy they are starting to make the episodes more relatable
I have a sister who is a travel nurse, it is hard work but the pay, travel and the ability to help people is worth it.
This was such a great video being in the nursing myself self-discipline is to staying in the green 💚 he truly is on the right pathway to staying successful love it blessing to you, the family 🙏 you had great role models to kudos to your mother, grandparents 🙌 n giving back will keep you blessed!
He sounds like a stand up guy. A guy you wish to have as a brother. For his sake I would like to see him put money towards his debt and savings. His monthly expenses seemed very high. But overall I liked that he’s generous with helping out his community.
Oh! This is awesome to watch!! Very inspiring and the best part of this, he LOVEs what does. He is not in the nursing profession soley on money. He gives back. I see so many nurses from various backgrounds....who need spiritual cleanses before working with people.
The problem with coming from a poor background is that you want to help everyone you know. But you can’t save everyone. Giving away 1,600 may feel good at the moment but the truth is it isn’t sustainable. He isn’t going to be a travel nurse forever. At someone point he won’t be able to travel as much, and he’s going to go back to a normal salary. he should act like his salary is a experiencing a short term boost and invest as much as he can. His property isn’t cash flowing. He should focus on getting better at real estate and start building long term wealth then he’ll be in a position to help people for a sustained time.
People who come into money should focus on sustainable giving and not unsustainable giving
The black tax.
He didnt come from a poor background 😅 what are you talking about
Yup this is why I changed my mind.
His parents were travel nurses. So he most definitely did not come from a poor background. How did you arrive at that conclusion? Think before you speak, otherwise it just sounds like prejudice 🙄.

One of the better episodes that I've seen!
I am so proud of Aspen. He has a compassionate heart. As an RN, we go through so much and this King deserves all the great things going on for himself. And congrats to his parents and his family for raising a respectable and responsible man. It’s great to see a hard working and a successful RN on this segment.
Incredible, we need more men in nursing! Also he has a great mindset and perspective. We need more black men winning in society.
AGREED! Instead of black men want to be rappers (and black girls want to be Instagram models)🙄. We need more black men to be nurses, doctors, lawyers, judge.
This guy is just the definition of dope 🙌🏾
God Bless him. ❤ He’s doing great.
He has a beautiful spirit. They way he loves and gives back is wonderful.
Love to see this kind of content. Man has a great head on his shoulders.
dude is a champ. hard work pays off
Nursing is a VERB, not a noun. It is a lot of work, so unless you really want to serve the public with a POSITIVE ATTITUDE, DO NOT BECOME A NURSE.
Do it now while you're young... it gets old... and when it does, you'll be financially prepared to take on the next adventure in your career.
Nursing is it love this for him!!! From a fellow nurse
Love the video man. Its great that you’re not only helping save lives, but your giving back to those close to you. You seem like a selfless person which is fantastic, and we need more people like us willing to set good examples. I don’t know the story behind your friend who is incarcerated, but I would recommend leaving him behind. It’s clear that you’ve both taken 2 completely different roads, & ultimately their actions landed them where they are now… no fault of anyone else. They have to be willing to help themselves too & that starts with staying out of trouble, but also they had the chance to set a better example for our brothers & well they chose not to.
Of course you don’t have to take my advice. I love everything else you’re doing… Keep doing you, you’re obviously doing big things & I’m glad I got to hear your story 🙂👍🏾
He is phenomenal
This a solid dude! Shouts out to SC!
What an amazing heart for service. God bless you!
Thank you for giving back and setting up your own scholarship fund!
This is a great interview! He learned alot from his parents!
So incredibly inspiring, he's a very hard-worker. I wish Aspen the best!
We need more people like you 🎉 . Keep up the good work.
A Black king! I loved every bit of this. Congrats Aspen! A job well done
unreal how much nurses make in the US compared to Europe -in Europe these are one of the lowest paid jobs
Worries me. Too many stories of our black people becoming needy themselves because they were too generous while the money flowed. Rethink gifts to family, and instead have a “private” fund to be generous for legit needs when they come (because they will come). You just don’t seem to be in a position to give scholarships. That time will come, and it’s not when you’re in debt yourself. Real talk, you seem to living the life of a future you. No shade intended at all. When we grow up poor in our community, we start thinking a good salary means we have a lot of discretionary income to give/spend…when that discretionary income should be earmarked for securing our future so that we can then bless family, give scholarships, etc. I’m like you in wanting to do good from an early age. I’m now at a relatively young age where I can and do give generously. If I had done this at your age, i would not be able to be as generous as I am able to be…not then, not now. Putting on your oxygen mask first, as the cliche goes, is not selfish.
You are right!!!
Yup 👍 I did this and cost me a lot of trouble.
My uncle makes $500K and l think he donates over $60K to black tax😂
His scholarship is in honour of his mother who obviously instilled excellent principles in him. Even him helping others shows his character which is worth more than money. He had investments, he seems fine to me. His approach is wonderful and works for him, he doesn't have to be like you.
Amazing guy! I just saw Mombasa, Kenya(Turks) as one of the places you've visited. That is special. Wishing you great success 🙌🏾
Hats off to him!
What a well rounded guy! Love it
Proud of you. Keep doing well. Cheers to Aspen! I miss Ancie and Wilson so dearly.
Aspen needs to get the Chase Sapphire Reserve with the way he's using. The amount of points he will accumulate. My god. He can buy first class to Singapore in no time.
Yep. The credit cards he had aren't good for miles and points.
Those points come off the backs of poor people. Research interchange fees.
He’s killing it 🎉🎉🎉
I hope young people can take note of this young man's success, hard work, and dedication to his profession. He is living the American Dream!
I like how giving he is, that's a great quality as long as your not feeling used or abused by others.
I love the fact he said he has a friend in prison and he sends money for him, if it was him his friend would've done the same thing for him, true friendship🤝a bond will be broken💯
With travel rates declining across the country, I highly doubt he is earning that much nowadays.
Wow. 1440 on food for one person???????????
If your always traveling and getting rental cars why have a car payment?
For when he dosen’t work
Impressive! Seems like a great guy that has life together!
A very professional young man!
3:09 - Where's the SAVINGS?! (Or did I miss that in the fine print?)
The was none that I saw.
I was looking for that too
I don’t see the savings, especially since he is not employed the entire year.
It's wild to me that he earns so much yet it seems like he spends every penny. I saw that he dabbles in real estate and said that debt is a necessity (or something along those lines).
I'm wondering if his wife saves for the two of them since she is a travel nurse as well. Maybe he takes care of the expenses, and she just saves. Idk just a guess. 🤷♀️
