The way we manage our money affects every area of our lives: our careers, our relationships and our health. Unfortunately, most of us spend more time adjusting our fantasy football lineups or planning our next vacation than we do thinking about our budgets and asset allocations. Lucky for you, I’m here to help. I think way too much about money, so you’ll never have to.
Funancials was founded on the idea that:
Managing your money should be simple.
So simple – that everything should be on autopilot allowing you to spend your finite time focused on things that are actually fun.
If you find yourself:
- Confused about what you should do with your money
- Stressed over personal financial decisions
- Wondering how, when and where to invest
- Paralyzed by the overwhelming number of investment options
then I’m glad you stopped by.
