NewGrindFI: the Latest Milestone

Welcome to We Want Guac!

In 2016 I graduated college without a job and without a plan. Three years later I had tripled my income and reached a $100,000 net worth milestone. At 30, I quintupled that to to half a million dollars - all because I learned how to work my way to wealth.
This blog is all about how I did that on my own climb to financial freedom. I want you to do the same so we can both get the extra out of life.
