One Word to Describe Greg: Sincere

Memorable Money Moment:  I learned about savings goals from my younger brother, Andy. At the young age of 12, he decided that he wanted an electronic synthesizer. The sticker price was $2,195 -- and that was in 1987. To meet his goal, he got a paper route -- about the only job a 12-year-old could get. With a little financing help from my parents, he was able to purchase the synthesizer and went on to outfit a full music studio.
