What You’ll Find on Simple Finance Blog
Investing 101 for Beginners
We start with the building blocks—stocks, index funds, IRAs, retirement accounts—and explain how each works in real life. You’ll learn how to confidently make informed decisions about things like buying and selling bonds, covered calls, or using the Ramsey retirement calculator.
How Much to Invest
How much should you invest? It depends on your income, debt, and goals. I break it down simply, whether you’re building your first portfolio or comparing safe options like CDs versus Treasury Bills.
Where to Invest
From choosing between a CD and a Treasury Bond, to deciding if Treasury Bills are safer than CDs, I walk you through the platforms, tools, and accounts that protect your money and help it grow.
Wealth Management & Advisors
Considering a financial advisor? I help you know what to ask, what to avoid, and whether you’re better off managing a balanced portfolio of index funds on your own.
Behavioral Finance & Smart Habits
Investing isn’t just technical—it’s emotional. Learn to cut through the noise, stay the course, and avoid panic-driven decisions like day trading vs. forex trends or chasing the next crypto wave.
Practical Tools & Timely Insights
From exploring apps that let you invest in cryptocurrency to comparing CDs vs. Treasury Bonds in today’s rate environment, I give you actionable insights for smarter investing.
