My name is Shawn and I am the author of The Broken Penny. I decided to create The Broken Penny because I love writing about and discussing personal finance. I don't have an impressive story of overcoming debt or a professional financial background. Rather, my story will sound familiar to many others. I grew up in a middle class family, went to college, got good grades, a good job, and realized that in order to achieve financial freedom I need more than that. The Broken Penny is dedicated to the discussion of all financial issues, and helping each other get on the fast track to financial freedom. My financial philosophy has been shaped in large part to the teaching of author Robert Kiyosaki. Rich Dad Poor Dad has been the influential financial book I have read to date, and often refer to Kiyosaki's ideas in my writings.
