About Our Founder
Robert Farrington, America's Millennial Money Expert®
Since I can remember, I've had a passion for investing and all things related to personal finance. Throughout my teens, I focused on ways to make money: I sold stuff on eBay, I took on freelance writing, and more. I used my earnings to save, invest, and pay off my student loans in 3 years.
I started this website to showcase common sense student loan and investing strategies. Student loan debt is the #1 dilemma holding back young Americans from investing and building wealth.
Through my years of helping others, I've come too the conclusion that developing multiple income streams - investing, side hustling, and entrepreneurship - is the key to building wealth.
