Hi, I'm Jesse, but you can call me Jes for short (that's what my mates call me). I'm just your average Aussie guy passionate about making the world of investing easily understood by removing the ātoo hard basketā stigma that surrounds it. That's why I started The Money Pal. My investing journey kicked off in 2015, after I picked up a copy of āRich Dad Poor Dadā from my Dadās old bookshelf. As Mr. Kiyosaki says, āRich people acquire assets.ā So as any impressionable 19 year old who only knew that assets were good and liabilities were bad would do, I listened to a mate who mentioned that ASX:SGH had nosedived from $8 to $1.30, and are looking really juicy. Nowadays, my brokerage fee exceeds the value of my āassetā after copping a 99% loss. Since then, I managed to dust myself off and have become an avid follower of financial markets, long term investor and intend to continue adding to my financial tool-belt. I'm a firm believer that despite one's appetite for effort or risk, the practice of investing is something we can all implement into our lives.

Hi, I'm Christian, unlike Jes, i'm fine with Christian. I'd prefer to stick with what my Mamma gave me if you know what I mean. I'm a passionate and devoted financial writer. My love for finance originated during my time at University where I studied business, economics, and finance extensively. I'm keen on consistently improving my knowledge on investing and personal finance, whilst also making the topic more of a prominent talking point amongst Millenials. I'm in my happy place having a yarn about all things finance, fantasy sports, and my beloved Collingwood FC over a few independently owned craft beers.
