Money at 30: “The Psychology of Money” Book Review

by Kyle Burbank
One of the things I love most about the book reviews I've been doing for the past several months now is that, despite writing about finance for five years or so now, I'm consistently introduced to new insights, ideas, and perhaps even some "hot takes" about money. My latest bit of consumption is no exception and, in fact, may be the most paradigm-shifting read I've experienced yet. Released earlier this...

Guide to Credit Card Sign-Up Bonus Offers

by Kyle Burbank
When you're looking for a new credit card, what do you look at first? Is it the type of card? The bonus categories? Auxiliary perks? Or perhaps it's the sign-up bonus. If you choose the lattermost option, you're certainly not alone. After all, these bonuses are what card issuers use to attract new cardholders. Luckily, when used correctly, these bonuses can be quite lucrative for consumers. So how do credit...

Guide to Cash Back Credit Cards

by Kyle Burbank
When it comes to earning rewards using credit cards, a great place to start is with cash back credit cards. Unlike with some options that accrue points or airline miles, cashback cards reward users by giving them a percentage of their purchases back in the form of (you guessed it) cash. Then, these earnings can be redeemed for statement credits, transfers to your bank, or, in some cases, gift cards...

Money at 30: Revolut Review

by Kyle Burbank
This review feels like its been a long time coming. That's not really because I've been waiting for an extended period to post it but just because I've been mildly obsessed with Revolut ever since I downloaded the app and signed up for myself. Plus, as I continued to dive deeper, I only became more intrigued — not to mention that new features have debuted in just the few weeks...

Money at 30: Basket App Review

by Kyle Burbank
It's helpful to not have to make trips to multiple stores just to stock up on food. At the same time, it can be difficult to determine which store in your area will give you the best price once all of the items on your list are taken into consideration. That's where the app Basket aims to make your life a little easier and save you money at the same...

Money at 30: Venmo Card Review

by Kyle Burbank
For several years now, Venmo has been one of the most popular options for peer to peer (P2P) payments. Despite this, I'd suspect that fewer people are aware of the app's free debit card — and, if they are, they might not be familiar with the actual benefits that the Venmo card carries. So what is the Venmo card and what does it have to offer? Let's take a look at...

Money at 30: "The More of Less" Book Review

by Kyle Burbank
If you're like most people, I assume that, at some point, you've looked around your home and wondered why you have so much crap. Sure you should probably get rid of it but it's not really hurting anyone, right? And then there's all the other stuff that you might not use on a day-to-day basis but holds a special place in your heart for one reason or another — what...

Later.com Social Media Management Tool Review

by Kyle Burbank
Love it or hate it, social media plays a big role in today's society. Therefore, as a blogger, posting on Twitter, Pinterest, and Facebook is a big part of how I grow my community and drive traffic to my site. Unfortunately, managing content across these multiple platforms can be difficult — especially if I were to do it all manually. That's why I've used a social media scheduling tool for...

2025 SoFi Checking and Savings Review

by Kyle Burbank
 Ever since I started taking an interest in the FinTech sector, one company whose name I’ve seen pop up over and over again is SoFi. That was later sent into overdrive as the company has not only become a household name thanks to its stadium naming rights deal but also because of the company’s continued product expansions. The most interesting development in my mind is SoFi’s acquisition of Golden Pacific...

PayPal Debit Card Review: Earn Stackable 5% Cash Back

by Kyle Burbank
In recent weeks, PayPal debuted an updated debit card product (perhaps you've seen the incessant Will Ferrell commercials for it during football games?). With the launch of this card, the company known for online payments is encouraging customers to pay with them anywhere. To encourage such behavior, the debit card allows cardholders to earn 5% cashback — although, as you can imagine, there are some important restrictions on that. So,...
