2013-01-31-MichaelCostigan.jpegRamit Sethi tells it how it is. Simple and straightforward, he gives financial STRATEGIES, not advice. He is the one who taught me there's a limit to how much you can save, but there's no limit to how much you can earn. Focus on where you can improve your ability to earn income and quit worrying about those lattés you buy every morning.
