About

I’m just a kid from rural South Carolina. I’m the son of a retired Army Master Sergeant father and a dedicated hardworking mother.

I grew up doing what I was told was responsible. Get a good job, save consistently, and still realized something didn’t add up.

Now, a Marine Corps veteran, a husband to an amazing wife, and blessed to be a father to two great kids.

My constant mantra: Never stop reading and be a life long learner.

My job is to teach them what I didn’t know growing up.

How to think strategically and break free from the conventional wisdom that only produces average outcomes.

Over time, I watched smart, disciplined people do “everything right” and still struggle.

This site exists to question that. You won’t find hype or shortcuts here.

This site focuses on:

• How decisions compound over time
• Why “safe” choices can become hidden risks
• How to evaluate money, career, and life choices beyond surface-level logic
• Building systems that support long-term freedom, not just short-term comfort

When you stop accepting default advice and start examining outcomes instead of intentions, your decisions change, permanently.

That shift in thinking is the foundation of everything you’ll find here.
