Practical, personal, smart financial advice
Brian has such a calm, practical way of presenting financial advice. He turns what's normally stressful, scary and overwhelming into something that's simpler, manageable and easy to understand. I like that he shares his personal experience along with his all-important professional experience -- and he's very relatable.
