I am a huge fan of Warren Buffett. In my other, or next, life, I would love to emulate his mindset and business. I fell in love with the stock market in 2003 and have been learning more and more ever since. Some years were not eventful and other years did really well for me. […]
Wanting To Start A Business Is Not Good Enough
How long would you say you have wanted to start a business? When was the first time you actually tried? I first learned about “business” in 2003 when I was training for an overseas deployment. I was hanging out with a guy in my unit and he started talking about casinos, the stock market, investing, […]
Give It Your All In 2017
When we look back on 2016, we may have had some ups and some downs, and some things may not have gone our way completely. It’s often a good time to reflect on where we have come and to think about where we want to go. Who do we truly want to be? Who do […]
Learning About Options and Why It Might Be Easier Than You Think
Over the last few days I have gotten into digging deeper on how to trade options. While I have traded pretty much everything else, including stocks, futures, foreign exchange, etc., I have never traded an option. I never knew how.

Thinking About Profit Margins and a Look at the Dow Jones Companies
I have wanted to start a business for a few years, but haven’t been able to come up with the right idea. I think I have been saying that for awhile. It seems like the idea is what holds back a lot of people. The other day I was thinking about profit margins and what […]
What I Have Been Working On
I have been pretty nonexistent lately. I was super motivated to recreate Inspire Your Legacy, but then I sort of fell off the wagon. Between work being busy throughout April, May, and the beginning of June, to going on a short vacation, to just being busy in general, I never gave this website much attention. […]
New Savings Account Opened
Today, while I was at the bank early in the morning I decided to take a minute and opened a separate savings account dedicated to The $0 Legacy Challenge. I did this to separate the money within the challenge to its own account, whereas before I had it all lumped into the rest of the […]
Dave Ramsey’s Smart Money Tour
Last week, a friend and I had the opportunity to attend Dave Ramsey’s Smart Money Tour in Washington DC. I have been a fan of Dave Ramsey for quite awhile so it was a very cool experience being able to go to something like that and actually see him in person. I’ve watched many of […]
My Newest Investment – Associated Capital Group, Inc.
Today, I made my newest investment. I am posting it here at Inspire Your Legacy to create some transparency with this website and so that you can follow along. You’ll either see me do well, and make money, or struggle, and lose money. Hopefully, my 12 years of experience will actually mean something. This is […]
My Investing Journey
If I had to give you a choice for my biggest passion this far in my life I would say that it would be investing. It is something that has completely changed my life in more ways than one and I find it so fascinating that you can literally go out there and buy partial […]
