Almost every day I meet someone who tells me they are struggling with money because… Read More
In high school, I read a book that changed my life. David Bach’s “The Automatic Millionaire.” This book shaped my entire philosophy on saving for retirement and gave me an awareness of how small decisions can make a big difference later in life.

One of my greatest strength (and weaknesses) is my sense of spontaneity. I will go on road trips on a whim, try new hobbies, implement new ideas within a day, and start fairly large house projects after thinking about them a day or two. That’s just me.

Once upon a time, I used to go to Black Friday sales every single year. 1:00 am was no barrier for me. I wore that sh*t like a badge of honor going to work later that morning and bragging about my finds.
