Many of you may not know that I had this secret life where I lived, loved and worked with accountants for nearly 20 years. I literally attracted accountants and financial people like they were going out of style – everywhere I went. I could walk into the room of 343 people and end up at an ENTIRE table of these beautiful souls.
Why? Not sure… maybe it is my analytical mind…perhaps it is my practical sensibility, no matter what the reason, I spent 15 years of my life boiling down complex financial ideas into practical, sensible ideas in writing that “my mom could understand.” I enjoyed the writing, too, though. I enjoyed learning about taxes, finances, money, budgeting, etc. And, along the way I used this information combined with my own experiences to help share with others what I learned about money management.
Enter… North Texas Kids, a local magazine dedicated to providing parents and children of the area with a guide to all of the resources available to them in the area. They strive to give their readership thoughtful, useful, and activity-based information in an easy-to-read format, and to provide it for free. North Texas Kids dedicates a part of every publication to supporting the county’s non-profit organizations and events, either through article space, advertisements, or event listings. Finally, their mission is to be financially, environmentally, spiritually, and socially responsible towards their associates, their readers, and the community.
My greatest joy is to serve others in any way I can, so I’ve signed on to be the newest columnist at North Texas Kids. My column is Savin’ Dollars and Spendin’ Sense. Each month I’ll write about how to adopt a financially free and fit money mindset. I also will share resources and tips on the North Texas Kids website. Send me your ideas, your questions and I’ll answer them in an upcoming column!
