Morning, guys!! Stumbled across an old comment on the blog I tagged to share some day, and decided today's that day before I forget again! :) It was dropped in 2018 so it's a tiny bit dated, but a majority of this still holds true and thought you might find it as fascinating as I did when I first read it... Amazing that no matter where you live, or who you are, you still

A Financial PowerPoint Presentation That Screams “I Love You!”
Remember our guy last year who put together a 19 slide PowerPoint presentation to woo the socks off his beautiful wife? Well he's at it again this year! And upped the game by adding an additional 15 slides for good measure ;) If I didn't know better I'd say he's just out to grab another Husband of The Year nod, but going through these slides it's apparent he really loves
Net Worth Update Day!! How You Livin’?
Morning gang! That time again to update the ol' net worth! It's a sad one for me this time around since it'll be the first one in 11 and 1/2 years where I *don't* share mine in all its naked glory (!!), but rest assured I'm still doing it in the background until I can figure out a way to divulge without breaking any promises, haha.... I can state though that so
Jimmy’s History of Personal Finance
[What up what up! Been getting a TON of response from our post the other day on the history of our net worth, so thought we'd continue the fun and share another person's financial background today ;) Can never see too many numbers about money, am I right?! Take it away, Jimmy...] ****** Inspired by J. Money’s recent, “How we grew our net worth to $900k,” I offer the

WOO! 💰💰💰 Our series where we showcase snapshots of other peoples' money in our community, from the older, to the younger, to the single, to the married, to the fabulously wealthy - all in
Personal Finance Around The World – Round II
I started a series a while back on what money's like in different parts of the world, but then promptly forgot about it until this morning when I received a note about life in Australia :) You can't base an entire country's perception on just one financial sliver, of course, but it sure does make for some interesting reading/learning, and thus we revive the series today and
Are You Down With OPM? (Other People’s Money?)
(Big ups to A. Money for the throwback OPP'esque reference ;)) Welcome to Round II of Other People's Money! Where we blast out juicy numbers for everyone to see, and then include a snapshot on their background for even further ogling perspective ;) Up this time around: a millionaire who doesn't feel like a millionaire, a traveling Cardiac ICU Registered Nurse, a Hebrew
“You might get a kick out of our recent financial journey”
Morning! Been emailing with a new reader of this blog, and in the middle of it he shot me his entire financial/career life story which I thought you'd love to see too as voyeurs ;) Always something so raw and beautiful about this type of stuff - no one ever shares in the real word! The clip's below, along with some follow up questions I squeezed in while the iron was
The Zero Waste Lifestyle
As the 5 am wake ups continue, another effect has been an increased desire to learn more. I'm not typically one to go out of my way to pick up a book or learn something new just for the sake of learning, but all this week I've found myself being quite more curious than normal. It seems all this reflecting has opened up a new window inside my brain, and yesterday brought in
Even Experts Need Help With Money
I got a really interesting/confusing email the other day that initially through me for a loop. It was from my friend B. and went something like this: "Hey Jay! Do you still do money coaching? I need some help getting my finances in order and thought maybe you get me back on track. Lemme know." Nothing too out of the blue, right? Plenty of people need help with their money or
