Meet the passionate individual behind Lost in Finances.
My name is Tracy. I’m 49 years old and live in the Midwest in the U.S. I’ve had a lifetime of struggling financially. This is mostly due to health issues leading to medical debt as well as some bad decisions when I was a young adult. I’ve also had issues with depression and anxiety that have caused me to have more difficulty controlling my spending and making good choices. This led me to want to help people deal with their own financial problems and hopefully help them make some better choices than I have. My knowledge is self-taught. I have taken some financial courses on Coursera as well as having read quite a few books over the years. I will not be giving advice on topics such as investing or retirement accounts. I’m not qualified to do that and would never pretend to be. I do need to make money, but I wanted to find a way to do that while still being able to help other people. This website is the best way I can do that.
