Like most people in their 20s, Haley Sacks did not understand money. She had a desire to enter the financial world, but it seemed the only methods of learning its ins-and-outs involved indecipherable jargon and boring videos. Sacks took note of the content gap in the personal finance sector and decided to combine her newfound interest in finances and her background in entertainment to do the impossible: make finance cool.
Under the Instagram moniker @MrsDowJones, she spans the most important topics for the modern-day adult. It takes them step-by-step through financial transformation, from 'money mindsets' to teaching the masses about investing, building an online brand and cryptocurrency.
In 2020, she was named in Fortune's 40 Under 40, and in 2021, she was named one of InStyle's Badass 50.
Most recently, Haley launched her first course Start Here via Finance Is Cool University. Start Here is a go-at-your-own-pace money 101 course that helps you gain control of your finances and is the first step to becoming your own trust fund. It’s pre-recorded like a Netflix show so you can start it at any time. Except you don’t binge it! It’s designed to be taken for 20 minutes a day so you don’t burn out.
Haley lives in NYC and is currently studying to become a Certified Financial Planner.
