Daniel Whitmore

Daniel Whitmore's first money lesson came the hard way: as a teenager he blew a paycheck in under a week without being able to say where it went, and nobody had explained where it should have gone instead. He later taught himself the rules most people are never handed, through his own tax returns, an S Corp, rental properties, and investment accounts, with no license to protect and no product to sell. He guided his parents through the Roth conversion years until they had an actual plan, and now manages his mother's accounts directly, work that has shown him firsthand how one relative's estate settled in an afternoon while another's dragged through a year of probate court. Daniel writes about the money decisions people are expected to make at every age and life stage, without ever being taught the rules, in plain language and without a sales pitch.
