About Me

Working and saving up money showed me how much of an interest I had in the financial world. My friend and I started our journey to financial freedom back in 2022, by watching The Money Guys. Every day I try to learn more and more about finances, so I can help others to become financially free. My goal in life is to make others happy by sharing my knowledge of finances and able to make financial decisions for people that need my help.
