This blog is intended to be a space for me to talk about my favorite subject – money! I’ve been enthralled with money since I was a teenager, when I realized that money allows you to buy options. Really, that’s all it’s good for. The more money you have, the more options you have…and vice versa. So, from that point on, I became very interested in acquiring money and over the years I have learned a lot of lessons.

Am I an expert? That depends… You see, I’ve learned from the lessons of life. I am not a chartered financial anything and I have not been certified from any association anywhere when it come stop money advice. However, in my humble opinion, I have learned lessons about money that would be beneficial to you. First and foremost, the only person who cares about your money more than you do is the person trying to get it from you.

The second lesson that I’ve learned over the years is that setting some money aside is only optional if you enjoy the drama that comes from living a life without a financial cushion. Having a little pot of money to smooth out the bumps that life inevitably throws my way has been quite calming when I’ve had to deal them.

Thirdly, debt is to be minimized if not completely avoided. Debt is a shackle that will hold you back from getting what you really want. Novelty fades fast but debt payments last a very long time. Get out of debt – stay of debt!

Mistakes are the universe’s way of teaching us lessons. The beauty of mistakes is that we can learn from all of them, whether ours or those of someone else!
