About

Think, Plan, Save! is an repository for everything you need to help organize you personal financial life.  My name is Ryan Glover and I was raised by two parents that have no clue about money!  Sorry Mom, I love you, but everything I learned about money, I learned from doing the opposite of you.  That wasn’t always the case.  I actually didn’t realize that I was falling into the “parent money trap” until 2001.  It was then that I finally figured out what I was (or wasn’t) doing.  You see prior to 2001, I would write checks, use the ATM, charge everything on credit cards, and do whatever I wanted with my finances, without knowing what I was doing or how much I was spending.  It wasn’t until I found a personal finance website, Onmoney.Yodlee.com, that I really started realizing what I was doing.  Over the years, I created a personal finance workflow that allowed me to fully understand my financial world, what I was earning, spending, and ultimately wasting.  My goal for this site is to help you understand what not to do by recalling my past financial mistakes, but also by going into what I learned from those mistakes and how it made me what I am today.
