Afford Anything

Live your wildest dreams. Don't let money hold you back. 

Thanks to wise money managing, I’ve traveled to 27 countries, purchased a 100-year-old home, and have never — ever — had a penny in personal debt.

I’m a real estate investor, an award-winning jour­nal­ist, a small busi­ness owner, and I con­tin­ue to travel frequently.

When I’m not wandering the world, I’m based in Atlanta, but I designed my life to be “location independent” (I can work from anywhere with an internet connection). I’m my own boss and I do what I love. I do it all thanks to great money management, and I launched Afford Anything to share those stories with you.

My mission is to help people live their wildest dreams. I’m not just writing about money; I’m writing about freedom.

Afford Anything is an inspiring how-to blog for people who are sick of restrictions and extreme frugality. Afford-Anything.com is for people who are tired of reading that you should skip that trip to Aruba, enroll at your second-choice college, or give away your dog to save on pet food. Life is too short to work a job you hate. 

Afford Anything will help you buy your dream home, throw a lavish wedding, send your kids to private school, travel to far-flung destinations, retire on a yacht, launch a charitable foundation … to live richly and savor life.
