So, I’m turning 27 this week. With the realization that entering into my “late-20s” requires a little more financial know-how than I was previously capable of in my mid-20s (& because my student loans just truly never seen to go down), I began the hunt for someone to advise me on my finances. A financial advisor, if you will.
As I mentioned in my winter life update, I’ve been checking out LearnVest for quite some time. Their mission (& this is not a sponsored post, I promise, kids) is to change the way people think about money. I’ve heard LV’s founder, Alexa von Tobel, speak a few times, and she, in an incredibly intelligent way, makes the whole money thing sound pretty important to figure out quite early in your adult life. LV is big on giving you small tasks you can tackle slowly over time, so I thought it wouldn’t be too overwhelming, and was worth a shot.
