I fell into bookkeeping in 2014.
Although I’d made money using all kinds of online business models, I’d never figured out how to manage that money. I went through some feast and famine, got in and out of debt, and finally sold my online businesses and limped away in early 2013.
I took a job working for You Need A Budget (aka YNAB, pronounced why-nab) — a personal budgeting company. While working at YNAB I started supporting a handful of coaches in their business finances.
The business grew through word of mouth, and within a year I was back on my own as a full-time money guy, working almost exclusively with coaches.
