Rosé on a Monday -

Walks with Rose are more of a "hang on for dear life" situation as she really enjoys the ideal of playing with squirrels. Thankfully, she abides by all traffic signs and makes sure to look both ways before crossing the street!

TRIVIA ANSWER: Tuesday I asked, "what things you should do before you start investing for your future goals"

Whether it's retiring early, buying that lake front property, saving for a down payment, or paying off your student loans, I'm a big believer in protecting one's ability to earn an income. It's the foundation of a solid financial plan and without an income, it's impossible to invest, save, and spend.
