About Money Mastery

We deliver expert-led courses, actionable tools, and personalized coaching that transform financial knowledge into daily behaviors and measurable results.

Income and Career Optimization

Increase your earning power strategically at work and beyond.

Negotiating Compensation With Confidence

Research ranges using market data, internal pay bands, and total rewards. Prepare quantified achievements, impact narratives, and timing strategies. Practice scripts, silence, and BATNA framing to secure base, bonus, equity, and development budget improvements.

Building Sustainable Side Income

Design a side business that aligns with skills, demand, and compliance. Validate offers, set minimum viable pricing, and implement intake funnels. Learn client acquisition, contracts, invoicing norms, tax withholding, and time blocking to avoid burnout.

Upskilling Return on Investment

Evaluate certifications, courses, and projects by expected earnings lift, probability of completion, and costs. Model payback periods, funding options, and opportunity costs. Track outcomes with metrics dashboards, peer feedback, and manager endorsements for promotions.

Banking and Cash Management

Structure your accounts to simplify saving, spending, and protection.

Choosing the Right Accounts

Compare checking, savings, and brokerage sweep accounts for fees, interest, transfer limits, and protections like FDIC or NCUA. Assess mobile features, ATM access, bill-pay reliability, and customer service responsiveness before moving direct deposits.

Automating Cash Flow

Create paycheck splits for essentials, goals, and guilt-free spending. Schedule automatic transfers, due-date-aligned bill payments, and minimum balance buffers. Use calendar batching, overdraft safeguards, and alerts to smooth cash flow across irregular income cycles.

High-Yield Savings and Liquidity Ladders

Place short-term cash in high-yield accounts, and ladder certificates or Treasury bills for predictable access dates. Separate immediate needs, near-term goals, and opportunity funds. Monitor rates, penalties, and tax treatment to optimize safe returns.

Programs and Pricing

Choose a path that fits your goals, schedule, and budget.

Investing Essentials

Learn evidence-based investing for long-term growth.

Retirement Planning

Create a retirement roadmap suited to your age, goals, and taxes.

Roth vs. Traditional Accounts

Compare current and future tax rates to choose Roth or Traditional. Consider employer plan options, income phaseouts, and backdoor strategies. Coordinate contributions with cash flow needs, emergency fund levels, and expected benefits like matches and credits.

Capturing Employer Matches

Calculate the value of matches, vesting schedules, and contribution limits. Front-load strategically, but avoid missing matches due to caps. Align increases with raises, bonuses, or windfalls, and update deferrals when life events change priorities.

Withdrawal Strategies and Sequencing

Plan tax-efficient withdrawals using order of accounts, capital gains brackets, and required distributions. Model sequence-of-returns risk, guardrail spending, and cash buckets. Incorporate health costs, Social Security timing, and longevity assumptions to sustain lifestyle.

Taxes for Individuals

Cut confusion and legally minimize taxes.

Housing and Major Purchases

Make big-money decisions with data, not guesswork.

Rent vs. Buy Analysis

Model total cost of ownership, including rent, mortgage, taxes, insurance, maintenance, and moving. Evaluate job stability, local markets, and lifestyle. Use break-even horizons, price-to-rent ratios, and repairs budgets to decide with confidence.

Mortgages and Amortization

Compare fixed, adjustable, and hybrid mortgages by rate risk, caps, and refinance options. Understand amortization schedules, points, and closing costs. Improve approval odds with credit readiness, debt ratios, and savings buffers before applying.

Negotiating Vehicles and Big-Ticket Items

Research dealer incentives, invoice pricing, and seasonal trends. Get preapproved financing, define a walk-away number, and prepare negotiation scripts. Inspect fees, warranties, and add-ons carefully, and use cooling-off periods or independent shops before accepting.

Insurance and Risk Management

Protect your income, assets, and plans from the unexpected.

Health, Life, and Disability Coverage

Select health plans using expected utilization, networks, and premiums. Calibrate life insurance amounts with income multiples, dependents, and debts. Evaluate disability elimination periods, definitions of coverage, and riders to maintain household stability under stress.

Behavioral Finance and Habits

Upgrade your mindset, systems, and accountability.

Biases That Sabotage Decisions

Spot loss aversion, present bias, and anchoring in daily choices. Build pre-commitments, checklists, and default settings. Use friction, reminders, and reflection questions to reduce impulsivity and align money behavior with long-term identities and values.

Habit Loops and Accountability

Design habit loops with clear cues, small routines, and satisfying rewards. Track streaks, weekly reviews, and monthly retrospectives. Leverage peer accountability, coach check-ins, and public commitments to sustain change through setbacks and competing priorities.

Overcoming Scarcity and Anxiety

Shift from scarcity to sufficiency by mapping needs, wants, and aspirations. Build buffer space, gratitude practices, and celebratory budgeting. Replace shame with data, progress graphs, and compassionate reviews that encourage consistent, values-aligned actions.

Entrepreneur and Freelancer Finance

Run your business numbers with clarity and control.

Business Entities and Taxes

Choose sole proprietorship, LLC, S corporation, or C corporation by liability, taxes, and complexity. Obtain permits, EIN, and banking. Understand pass-through taxation, payroll compliance, and quarterly filings to avoid penalties and protect personal assets.

Pricing, Proposals, and Cash Flow

Price using value, capacity, and benchmarks. Build tiered offers, proposals, and scope controls. Forecast cash flow with pipeline probabilities, payment terms, and reserves. Implement deposits, kill fees, and renewal incentives to stabilize revenue and margins.

Bookkeeping, Invoicing, and Tools

Adopt cloud bookkeeping, receipt capture, and mileage tracking. Standardize chart of accounts, tagging, and reconciliation. Automate invoicing, reminders, and late fees. Integrate payment processors and analytics dashboards for visibility into profitability, runway, and taxes.
