We don’t know about you, but we’re all about retiring early, which is why The Dough is here to help! Join host X Mayo (The Blackening, The Daily Show, Swarm) for weekly conversations with reality stars, entrepreneurs, and financial experts—basically anyone willing to get real about their relationship with money. X dives into the risks people take to make the dough, how they spend it, and how they save it.

In this episode, Ricki talks about where her early money went, and how she nearly lost it all. Plus, hear why Ricki invested in bitcoin, what she learned from two highly publicized divorces, and how she survived it all to live her dream life in Malibu with her husband Ross.

This series was created in partnership with Flourish Ventures, an early-stage global investment firm backing mission-driven entrepreneurs and industry influencers working toward a fair financial system for all. Learn more at flourishventures.com.
