Where Do I Start? - We’ve all been there before – looking up a literal or metaphorical mountain and wondering how in the world we’re ever going to reach the summit. It might be cliché to say that a great journey begins with a single step, nonetheless, when it comes to your finances, it’s important to remember. Luke Landes (LukeLandes.com) joins us this week to explain what that first step should look like and how you can climb your own personal mountain.
