Rent, food, and other nice things I can’t afford — can fintech solve our money problems?

In her ode to the big apple, Alicia Keys said, ‘if I can make it here, I can make it anywhere.’ Only to sing a verse later, ‘someone sleeps tonight with a hunger that’s more than an empty fridge.’ The song is 12 years old, but the message is current.

How I scaled my freelance business to $10,000/month

When I quit my full-time job and started freelancing five years ago, I figured it was just a stop-gap until I landed my next marketing job.
