S3E4 Cyber Security Grey Beard Financial Guidance

August 11, 2021 • Cyber Security Grey Beard® • Season 3 • Episode 4

Financial guidance based on my 30 years’ experience, economic degree, financial education, and wonderful direction from my father, a 40+ year professional financial advisor. I veer away from my standard cyber security talks in this episode to help students and early professionals learn, grow, and advance their financial well being. I see a critical need for, and interest in, financial advice and take time herein to help my listeners.

Note these are my opinions and recommendations only. I am not a professional or certified financial advisor and cannot be held liable or responsible for others’ financial decisions.

One item I didn't mention - tracking your finances. Make sure to use a tool such as Quicken, Mint.com, or a similar financial tracking program. Consolidate ALL financial data into one place.
