Aura Review: Personal Finance, Privacy, & Online Protection Tools
by Kyle Burbank
A few months back, I got an Amex Offer for a service called Aura — so, naturally, I decided to check it out. Funny enough, not long after joining, I went through a period where it seemed as though all my favorite YouTubers were doing sponsorships for the platform. This leads me to believe that more people are probably wondering exactly what Aura has to offer. With that in mind,...

"Easy Money" Audiobook Review
by Kyle Burbank
My experience with cryptocurrency has been a bit complicated. While I've been interested in the technology for a handful of years, I never bothered to dive too deep into the topic. Similarly, while I'd buy a few dollars worth of Bitcoin and some other coins when they'd become available in apps like Robinhood, I'm pretty sure I've never owned more than a couple hundred dollars worth of crypto. That's something...

American Express Green Card Credit Card Overview
by Kyle Burbank
In the past, I've talked a lot about American Express cards such as the Platinum and Gold cards. However, there's a third option in this line-up that isn't as discussed these days: The American Express Green Card. Ironically, once you see the card, you may realize that it's actually what you envision when you think about what an iconic Amex looks like. What's more, the Green card has plenty of...

"Financial Feminist" by Tori Dunlap Audiobook Review
by Kyle Burbank
Over the past few months, my Audible credits have really been piling up. Luckily for me, I recently came across a perfect candidate for download: Financial Feminist by Tori Dunlap — known as the founder of Her First $100K. Subtitled Overcome the Patriarchy's Bullsh*t to Master Your Money and Build a Life You Love, it's clear that the book isn't your average personal finance read. Then again, that's exactly what...

Arc Browser Review: Can it Help Boost Your Productivity?
by Kyle Burbank
For years, I've been using Google Chrome — not because I really love it but because that's what seems to work well enough for me. To be fair, Chrome does have a number of features I've come to appreciate and even downright rely on. Despite this, when I heard about a new browser called Arc from the appropriately named company The Browser Company, I was intrigued. Now, having tried the...

Curve Review: Can it Merge All of Your Credit Cards into One?
by Kyle Burbank
Credit card rewards are great, but working to maximize those rewards can be daunting at times. Not only might your quest require you to carry around multiple cards wherever you go but you'll also need to remember to use the "right" card for any given transaction. Given this reality, wouldn't it be nice if you could just use one card to make all of your purchases and have those transactions...
