This past October turned out to be another great side hustle month thanks to some strong showings from Airbnb and my new side hustle obsession, Bird and Lime. It’s nice to have a strong month at this point in the season since we’re now going full speed into winter, where my side hustle earnings typically […]

What Am I So Afraid Of? A Reaffirmation To Myself
When I look back at my life, I think there’s one thing that has guided a lot of my decision-making – fear. It’s a powerful emotion, one that I think pushes many of us onto the paths that we find ourselves on – whether we know it or not. Of course, a healthy dose of […]
Don’t Like Your 401k? Create Your Own 401k Instead
A few weeks ago, I finally went ahead and made my 2017 tax-year contribution to my Solo 401k.

Robo-Advisors Would Have Changed My Investing Life
When I look back at my investing life, one of my biggest regrets is just not getting started sooner. It’s really kind of a shame when I think about it. I didn’t start investing until I was 27 years old, almost a decade after I had graduated from high school. That’s years of potential growth […]
