Nor were we systematically trained in personal finance. I suspect our parents assumed we’d “catch” the wisdom they’d learned from their “school of hard knocks.”

Instead, we had to learn from that slave master, the “school of hard knocks,” ourselves.

We say it’s time to break that pattern!

That’s why we created this website… to spare you, our readers, from having to go through your own school of hard knocks. Enabling you to achieve your goals faster than we did, get your dream life on sooner, and enjoy the people you love.

Mission

Smart money management is key to fulfilling your dreams. Unfortunately, this is not something you’ll learn in school.

Our mission is to spare you many of the stupid financial mistakes we made and empower you with financial knowledge… so you can retire early (if you want to) with the lifestyle you desire and the freedom you crave.​

Vision

Our vision is to see you be a wildly successful personal money manager and achieve your lifestyle goals. Even if you’re starting out deeply in debt. And even if you don’t have a “CPA” behind your name.

 Values

We believe that anyone can learn the principles of wise money management with a little bit of effort over a period of time. You can learn to “make your wallet wise.” And that’s the ticket you need to throw off the bonds of money slavery and live the life of freedom you yearn for. That’s what drives us to provide valuable money tips and strategies.
