Why I Became a Reformed Financial Advisor

I spent years in the financial industry watching smart people make poor decisions because they were following the wrong map.

My mission is to help you stop fighting your natural instincts and start using them to build a life of true wealth. Whether through my book or my spending guides, I'm here to help you master the human element of your money.

  • Identify Your Money Map: Recognize the hidden behavioral biases that guide your spending.
  • The IQ Myth: Understand why being "good at math" doesn't equate to being good with money.
  • Reform Your Habits: Simple, actionable steps to stop fighting your instincts and start building wealth.
  • Human Element Mastery: Learn how to align your temperament with your financial goals.
