Financial Foundations
A practical plan to gain control of your life and money
"Why didn't I learn about this in high school or college?"
This is the question I openly asked when I found myself with a degree, a new job, and absolutely no idea how to manage money.
I bet you can relate to my situation.
The sad truth is that a staggeringly-low number of high schools and colleges in the United States require coursework in personal finance.
I'm a public school teacher and former administrator myself, but I have to admit it: the system failed me, and it failed you, too.
So I did what anyone desperate for answers would do. I read books. I took courses. Some of them helped, but nothing seemed to give me all of the answers I was looking for.
But then something changed, and I figured out how to get control of money and its impact on my life.
I learned that financial success was built upon solid FINANCIAL FOUNDATIONS of concise theory and action.
That's why I created this course with a simple goal in mind: give you all of the actionable information you need to manage your money well and take control of YOUR life.
My name is David Cahill, and I'm the creator of FinanceSuperhero.com, a popular personal finance blog. Just a few years ago, I was struggling to make sense of money.
When my wife and I got married in 2010, I was unemployed, stuck in almost $20,000 of student loan debt, and worried sick. Even when I got a job as a teacher earning $40,000, things didn't get much better.
I had read many finance books and even taken a few courses, but we just weren't making much progress. The knowledge was there. . . well, sort of. . . but executing on that knowledge was a colossal struggle.
In 2016, I replaced my undergrad student loans with $18,000 in student loan debt for a graduate degree, and we were right back to square one.
It was depressing.
I knew something needed to change.
Over the next 54 days, my wife and I made significant changes to the way we managed our money and paid off my nearly-$18,000 student loan debt.
A few months later, our story was picked up by CNBC and Yahoo! Finance.
And since then, we've been on a mission to build wealth, pursue the lives of our dreams, and help people take back control of their lives and money -- just like we did.
This course, Financial Foundations, will teach you all of the techniques we used to take control of our money and start building a better future for our family.
