Active young entrepreneur building wealth through early action

I'm a very active young entrepreneur who loves running and the outdoors. I believe that financial health starts with awareness—knowing where your money goes and understanding how to prepare for the future. My philosophy is simple: the best time to start was yesterday, but the second best time is now. I'm focused on building as large a financial foundation as I can early in life, so that compound interest works in my favor. I want to create a life without regret, stay debt-free, and one day provide comfortably for my family.

"The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

— Chinese Proverb

This philosophy drives everything I do with money. You can't change the past, but you can absolutely change what happens next. Every investment, every dollar saved, every smart decision made today compounds into the future you want. Don't wait—start now.

What does being financially healthy mean to you?

Being financially healthy means that you are aware of where your money goes. Being able to understand how to prepare for the future is a major part—ensuring you can meet your day-to-day needs and expenses as well as creating a good financial foundation for the future. Being in control is one of the key parts when it comes to financial health. Staying out of debt or ahead on payments will help you in the long run.

What motivates your work in financial health?

Knowing that one day I will look back and not regret my actions motivates me. Regret is one of the worst feelings, and regret often occurs when it comes to money. It may take some sacrifices now, but eventually you will be glad that you took those sacrifices. I one day want to have a family and I want to be able to provide and live comfortably.

Current Goal

Keep investing. Now is a perfect time to buy stock and it will help me in the next 20 years. I want to build as large of a foundation as I can now, so that compound interest is on my side sooner than later. I want to stay debt-free and eventually own a house—and investing now will help me successfully prepare for that.
