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

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

That's why it's always exciting to discover a new potential option — in this case, Passive Income, Aggressive Retirement by Rachel Richards. I first heard about this book thanks to a post on...

Money at 30: "Quit Like a Millionaire" Book Review
Earlier this year, I decided that one of my goals for 2020 was to do more book reviews. Somehow, this became both easier and harder to attain as quarantine set in. So, with my local library closed, I instead turned to Amazon to see what titles I should add to my queue. That's how I first came across Quit Like a Millionaire: No Gimmicks, Luck, or Trust Fund Required by...

Money at 30: "Start from Zero" Book Review
Something I often forget about myself is that I am technically a business owner. However, in my mind, there's a big difference between working for yourself and being an actual entrepreneur. With that in mind, I don't often look to books about business or entrepreneurdom (if that's even a word) as I didn't really think they'd apply to me. Yet, when I was recently offered the chance to check out...
