He lives in Nashville, TN with his wife and son.

In this episode, you’ll learn how Bob and his wife keep finances fun, how he transitioned from “broke down” guy in his 20s to the money master that he is today, what Bob means when he says “it feels like I’m breaking all the rules” with my money, and Bob’s goals for the future now that he’s got this money thing figured out. Bob’s got a great story to tell and I’m sure you’ll leave with a few helpful nuggets to help you on your own journey.
