🌿 Steady Steps — About Me
Hi there! I’m the creator of Steady Steps. 🐢🐇
My own interest in long-term investing began in 2020. As I started learning on my own, I quickly realized how important it was to build financial knowledge not just for myself, but for the future security of my entire family. What began as my personal curiosity soon grew into a shared journey, as both my husband and son became interested and joined me in exploring this new world together. 📚💡
Now, investing has become a fun and meaningful part of our family life. We continue to learn, discuss, and grow together, turning what once felt overwhelming into an exciting adventure that brings us closer as a family. 🌱 🍀
Through this blog, I hope to make investing approachable for other beginners, parents, and kids who may feel the same way I did when I started—curious, but unsure where to begin. With the help of our friendly guides, Steady the Turtle and Zippy the Rabbit, I share simple explanations, fun stories, and practical tips to break down complex financial topics into easy-to-understand lessons. 🧩✨
All of the content here is personally written based on my own research, learning experiences, and the journey we’ve taken as a family. My goal is to help others build confidence in managing their finances and to show that time is one of the greatest allies in long-term investing.
Thank you so much for visiting! I hope you’ll join us on this learning journey. 🌿 ⏳
