I used to be a literature professor who didn’t know the first thing about money. 

A financially vulnerable position I found myself in a few years ago sparked my interest in personal finance, which quickly turned into an obsession. I read dozens of books and consumed every bit of intelligent content about money that I could find. 

In two years, I went from absolute zero to $105K saved and invested, and I did it with a modest salary. 

This blog is where I share everything I learn about personal finance.
