There’s a war that’s been raging since the dawn of calculators and Dave Ramsey. On one side we have the nerds with glasses and pocket protectors. On the other side we have your Everyday American who just wants to get ahead. It’s the Battle of the Debt Payoff Methods! Take a seat, my friend….
February 2018 Financial Progress Report: N00b Edition
Welcome, my friends, to Go Science Finance’s first monthly report. We’re gonna give you a sneak peak behind three things that no one except weirdo personal finance bloggers talk about: our debt, our savings, and our net worth. Why start now, two years into the blog? Good question. Why start a monthly report…
If I Start Freelancing, Won’t I Owe Like A Bazillion Dollars In Freelance Income Taxes?
I’m a firm believer that earning extra cash can change your life like a gold-toothed fairy godmother. Or Oprah. That works too. Earning extra money can be especially life-changing for low-income folks tied to tenuous jobs. As in, any fish or wildlife technician ever. But, a couple weeks ago, a reader brought up a…
Hacking the Cost of LASIK Eye Surgery
You would never know I have vision problems thanks to my contacts. In fact, I hate wearing glasses almost more than I hate not being able to see things and running into walls (which, to be honest, I do a fair amount of anyway). This is why I want to get LASIK. What if…
10 Investing Questions
There are a lot of reasons why people don’t invest. For me, one of the biggest reasons is that I don’t know about all the little minute details and how to fit them all together. Sure, I know investing in an IRA is important, but how do you actually do all of the thing associated with…
How to Make a Money Plan for a Seasonal Wildlife or Fisheries Job
It’s that time of year again! No, not Shark Week. (*slowly puts away popcorn and shark pajamas*). Hundreds if not thousands of people across the Northern Hemisphere are drafting up their resumes and cover letters. If that’s you, you’re probably sending out dozens of letters on a wing and a prayer like the hordes…
Why I’m Not A Member Of The Clean Plate Club And You Shouldn’t Be Either
When I was a kid, my parents, like many others, implored me to finish my food. “Come on, you’ll be a member of the Clean Plate Club!” they promised. Personally, this sounded like the lamest club ever. There were no badges, no field trips, no cookies, and definitely no stickers. But now that I’m…
How to Stick With Your New Budget
It’s that time of year again! Everyone’s getting ready to set their New Year’s resolutions. Personally, I’m going for being able to drink tea out of a mug without spilling it all over myself like a besotted drunkard. But I realize that many of you have financial goals. Me too. I’m hoping to double…
M1 Finance Review: Not Your Grandpa’s Investing App
You know you need to invest. I know I need to invest. It can seem so confusing at first though. Where the heck do I start? What’s a trading fee, and can I pay them in Pokemon cards and pogs? Don’t I need a million dollars and a monocle to be an investor? False!…
How meditating helped me improve my money game, boost my happiness, and find a flying unicorn
I am a skeptical person. Don’t tell me about how you believe in astrology, homeopathy, or healing crystals. I won’t buy your damn essential oils, Janet, or your hideous tights for that matter. I’ll crouch in the corner of the room and hiss if forced to be near anything that’s been within a mile…
