So yeah, the markets are tanking and bi-polar level...

Most people hear the word "invest" and think that only means stocks, real estate, mutual funds and maybe some retirement accounts. Wrong.

They set money aside, let it grow over decades, and hope it’s enough to retire. That’s fine if you want slow, p...

We all hear it: Invest in yourself. It’s great advice, but let’s be honest, not all investments are created equal.

Dropping cash on the wrong course, coach, or conference won’t magically grow your bank account. In fact, it might just drain it.

Seeing Bitcoin smash through the $50k barrier is like spotting a unicorn these days – a sight both rare and electrifying for fans and investors.

It's been 776 days (December 2021) since we last saw Bitcoin strut above this financial catwalk.

Let's face it, the idea that you need a suit-and-tie financial advisor to handle your money is as outdated as dial-up internet.

With all the tools and info we've got online, taking control of your investments is not just possible...it’s kind of a no...

So you want to start investing but don't know where to start...

Don't worry. We got you covered.

Do you live in a commune? Plan on never having children? Like living in a van or tiny home?

Then the FI/RE movement (Financial Independence/Retire Early) may be great for you!

But if you're like 99% of other people that don't fit that demographic a...

This may be one of the most important posts I ever write around money. And it may look click-baity but that title is more serious than a snakebite.
