    Data Brokering: The Completely Legal Way Your Personal Info is Being Pirated

    Years ago, out of sheer curiosity, I sat down and googled myself. The results both stunned and horrified me. Within a span of five minutes, I was able to pull up my current address, a shockingly accurate list of all of my prior addresses, the names, addresses, and ages of multiple relatives, my job history, and a slew of other information that I would never EVER publicly publish. I was devastated.

    Automate and Chill: Your Guide to Becoming a Financial Automaton

    What is an automaton? Specifically, what is a financial automaton? You quietly ask yourself if you should consult the Googler but fret not- I am here to explain. An automaton, a word often used in similes and comparisons, refers to a person who seems to act in a mechanical or unemotional way. Add finances to the mix, and basically, I am suggesting that you should strive to become a robot in (some) money areas. Why operate as an automaton/robot? Because they do what they are pre-programmed to do with no hesitation. If you are able to successfully automate your income, then you will experience what it feels like to make moves for your future without unnecessary stress or extra time taken away from your already full day.   Here are some simple steps that you can do to streamline your cash flow: Set up Direct Deposit through your job (if possible). Not only will you be saving time, but you’ll often receive your paycheck as early as 12am on Fridays. Party! Register for Bill Pay and Paperless Billing. You will literally be saving the planet while simultaneously ridding yourself of late fees, interest charges, and, possibly, overdraft fees.

    New FHA Policy Makes Buying a Home Easier…

    One of the main tentpoles of the American dream is the hope of owning a home, complete with the white picket fence, red door, and two-car garage. However, for those of us with student loans, the road to home ownership is fraught with obstacles. Rising housing prices, tighter lending criteria, and the fact that massive student loan debt disproportionately impacts people of color means that many of us have found ourselves unable to start building the generational wealth that we crave through real estate because of the money we borrowed to obtain upward mobility in the form of higher degrees.
