As a result of his parents hard work, Mike was able to go to college as well earning a Bachelors Degree in Engineering from Georgia Tech and a Masters Degree in Business from Arizona State Univeristy.
Mike realized that in spite of all his education he had never really learned about the basics of personal finance. In addition, he discovered many things that happen to us in life are unexpected and can create financial difficulties if we have not adequately prepared.
For the last 10 years he has read various publications, researched financial topics of interest and used basic trial and error to developed an understanding of the proper ways to manage money and his financial life. He has compiled his learnings into the Real Life 101 Handbook so other people will have a handy, single source of information to begin their personal finance education.lihat lebih sedikit
