The Lifechanging Magic Of Breaking Out Of The Paycheck-To-Paycheck Cycle
Last week I came back from my first overseas trip. I was really nervous because I’ve never been away from my daily money management routine for so long, and Zach’s about as interested in it as he is particle physics or anything science really (who am I kidding?). I was afraid I’d come back…
8 Reasons To Make You Want To Start Investing Yesterday
Investing used to be terrifying to me. There’s an entire industry built on investing. They even have an entire street of walls somewhere in New York that somehow helps investors (do they pray to it for divinations?). How could a poor little peon like me hope to chip away at all them big riches?…
The Instant Pot Is A Magical Cauldron And You Should Have One
Pressure cooking used to be about as hip as fondue pots, fruitcake, and those old-school rotisserie apple peelers that everyone’s Nana has.
