About Us
Let us teach you what schools won't! While others are talking about how to get rich, we talk about the much overlooked basics. How do checking accounts work, what comes out of paychecks, how to stay organized so your bills get paid, and more!
Many people need help organizing their bills and receipts, but there is an underlying problem – people with money aren't getting their bills paid! They don't understand the terms on their credit card statements! They don't know how to write out a check correctly! This problem is occurring across all educational levels and economic classes. So we decided that while everyone else is talking about how to invest in the stock market and how to save for retirement, StartMoneySmart will talk about how to manage the money you have.
