Personal Finance, Real Estate, and Life
Given the state of the economy right now, many people are wondering if they can get a mortgage pre-approval during a recession.
While it is still possible, it’s worth finding out what a mortgage loan pre-approval is, why you need one, and how hard it is to receive one during a downturn in the overall economy.
Three years ago, I was counting down the days until my little one would start Kindergarten. The reality — as it turned out — was that it wasn’t meant to be.
I’d never even heard of Avant before. After reading that email my mind immediately began racing.
I figured that it would take weeks, if not months of strenuous work to make my first cent. After all, that’s been my entire experience with online income sources, in general.
As it turns out, when it comes to Medium I was wrong. Really wrong.
You should also know that I wasn’t born rich, and that my parents lived paycheck to paycheck. In fact, they still do — which means I didn’t have any help or support from them when I bought my first home.

Two days ago I finished a major project that I’d been working on.
After I completed the final touches and hit “submit” on my keyboard, I felt an immediate sense of relief.
After all, I’d spent five weeks obsessing over this work. Day in and day out, I’d eat, breathe, and dream about this project.
And Why It Doesn’t Feel Like I Did —
I started a publishing company.
As small as my indie company may be, it’s legitimate.
I weighed the pros and cons and decided to go through the trouble of forming an LLC, taking care of my accounting records, and coming up with a trade name.
I Didn’t Let Him Break Me—
I’ve only been on Medium for three weeks.
In that small amount of time I’ve found an enormous, amazing, and supportive community that embraces and encourages creativity.
Here’s How I Made it Happen—
Believe it or not, I didn’t join Medium to make money.
Instead, I wanted to focus on building an audience and I saw medium as a much more viable way to do that than by attempting to build my own blog from scratch — all by myself.
