Nobody teaches you how money actually works.

Not in school. Not at work. And most of the people who could teach you are trying to sell you something.

So you carry your questions for years. You Google. You get twelve conflicting answers. You sit across from an advisor who talks in jargon and assumes you already know the basics. You nod along. You leave more confused than when you walked in.

That ends here.

Open Mic Wednesdays with Charles is a free, live session where you get straight answers from someone who has built companies, invested in real estate, lost money, rebuilt it, and made every expensive mistake so you do not have to. No scripts. No agenda. No upsell at the end. Just your questions, answered honestly in real time.

What Happens Every Session

One hour. Your questions. Real answers from real experience.

🎙️
Open Mic Format

You ask. Charles answers. Live. No pre-screened questions, no rehearsed answers. Whatever you bring to the room is fair game.

🚫
No Pitch. Ever.

There is no sales presentation at the end. No upsell, no enrollment offer. This room exists for one reason only: your financial clarity.

📍
Real-World Answers

Not textbook definitions. Charles tells you what he would actually do, based on decades of experience building and investing real money.

Charles Wainer

Meet Charles Wainer

Charles is a senior care developer, syndicator, entrepreneur, and financial educator based in Scottsdale, Arizona. He builds boutique Senior Care Mansions, 16-suite assisted living and memory care, and remains invested in multifamily real estate, though his focus now is senior care rather than acquiring new apartments. He has built companies from the ground up, retired three times, and returned each time because a better opportunity was waiting.

He runs Open Mic Wednesdays because most people never receive the financial education they needed when they needed it. His approach is direct: tell it like it is, explain what actually works, and skip everything designed to impress rather than educate.

In this room, he is not your financial advisor. He is the experienced voice in the room who gives you the honest answer most people never get.

What People Ask

Bring whatever is on your mind. No question is too basic for this room.

Before You Register

The questions people ask before they sign up.

Yes. Always. No catch, no upsell at the end, no pitch. This session exists because Charles believes financial clarity should be accessible to everyone, not just people who can afford a private advisor.
That is exactly who this is for. You do not need to have investments, a financial plan, or any background in finance. You do not need to know the vocabulary. Just bring your questions and a willingness to learn.
Personal finance, budgeting, saving, retirement accounts, investing, real estate, passive income, debt payoff strategies, building wealth on a regular income. If it involves money and you want clarity, it belongs here.
No. Attend however you are comfortable. You can type your question in the chat, keep your camera off, and still get a direct answer.
The first Wednesday of every month at 9:00 PM Eastern / 6:00 PM Pacific. You register for each session separately using this page. Each session is a standalone hour, so you never miss context by skipping one.
Come back and register for the next session. They run monthly, on the first Wednesday of each month. If a session replay is made available, registered attendees are the first to receive it.
