And just like that, another FinCon is in the books. As I mentioned in my preview, although this year marked the return to an in-person event (taking place in Austin, Texas), I made the last-minute decision to go virtual. Of course, with approximately 20% of conference attendees choosing this option,...
For weeks, today has been on my calendar as the day I was going to dive into the FinCon 21 schedule in order to prepare my annual look at the panels and presentations I was most looking forward to. Ironically, today also ended up being the day I canceled my...
For most people, 2020 has left little to look forward to. If you're anything like me, the year has been one canceled plan after another. That's why I wasn't at all surprised when the final decision not to hold FinCon 2020 in Long Beach, California was made. Yet, another announcement...
First the bad news: FinCon 2019 has come to a close (*le sigh*). But, looking on the bright side, this year's event was a complete success in my book. In addition to seeing friends from last year and meeting new people, I left Washington D.C. with some great ideas as...
In just a couple of weeks, I'll be heading to our nation's capital to witness the meeting of money and media. That's right, FinCon 2019 is just around the corner! With this being the second year I've had the chance to attend, part of me feels as though I'm basically...
Well, that was fast. Somehow #FinCon18 has already come and gone — and boy what a few days it was. Not only did I manage to make it to nine of the 10 sessions I wanted to attend but also got to sit on some great keynotes, be introduced to...
The last time I wrote about Fold, things didn't go too well as the app nullified my "quick tip" only a few days after I highlighted it. Despite this, I'm going to give it another go because the app has added a new feature that I think is interesting. Now,...
As a frequent (or frequent enough) traveler, you quickly learn that investing in the right luggage can make a big difference to your experience. Not only do you want something that will hold up to the impacts of travel but can also hold all of your essentials in an organized...
Previously, I've made it pretty clear that I'm a big fan of Apple Pay. Having seen how much easier the service makes my life while overseas as well as helped me earn additional cashback here at home, I've welcomed the platform's adoption in recent years. What's more, while some might...
For the past few years, meal kit delivery services have been all the rage. And although I’ve written about them from time to time, I hadn’t actually tried any first-hand — until I joined EveryPlate about 18 months ago. Like other services, EveryPlate sends you weekly recipes along with pre-portioned...
It isn't too often that my two worlds collide, allowing me to talk about Disney and credit cards — but here we are. If you weren't aware, this year, The Walt Disney Company is turning 100 years old. And while it already looks to be a tumultuous year for the...
