I’m sure I’m going to get a few people that say I’m paranoid or a little crazy and I’m OK with that. It’s true, I keep my money in a variety of bank accounts for a number of reasons. I wanted to explain why I do it and why I think it should be a…
I’m going to be the first to admit that I work too much. For years I have been hustling and grinding in order to achieve success. How did I measure success? Money! It seems cliche, but I’ve attributed success with having money. For too many years, I thought having flashy things made me a success,…
I’m constantly asked how one should pay off debt. It’s extremely hard to answer, because it’s generally based on personal experiences and preferences.

I cover a lot of material on Wealth Bytes. The reason is because I get a lot of questions about money. I’m certainly OK with that, but I figured I would try to push all of the categories in one place so you can easily find a topic you want to look for. It’s easier…
I have a confession my friends. It’s not something I’m really happy about, but the truth hurts sometimes. I have a problem and I’m working hard to fix it. I’m a hoarder, everyone. Yes, that’s right, I hoard, but not things, just money! I’m a money hoarder and I’m working to change it. While it…
As most of you know, we moved into our current home last June. We have a nice sized yard and a really nice neighborhood. What we don’t have is a house that was move in ready. Well, it was, but we wanted to change many things. It’s been months and we still have too many…
