We were sitting on the dining room floor or our cold, dark basement apartment wondering why we weren’t as successful as we wanted. We just admitted that between us we had $51,000 of credit card debt. We were living naively and unconsciously and doing it all on credit.

After spending the weekend in the mountains and looking at property to build a vacation home, we realized we could barely afford to spend a weekend there, let alone buy land and build a vacation home.

How could we have a vacation home when we didn't even own a home?

We realized that for the past few years, we were spending beyond our means to make ourselves feel better, in part, to make up for being bullied and picked on for being gay when we were younger.

Even though we eventually found our community, we had limiting beliefs and thought we had to prove ourselves worthy to them. So, we spent and lived like the A-List gays. They had new clothes. We had new clothes. They had new phones. We had new phones. They went on amazing vacations. We went on amazing vacations.

Then, that night sitting on the floor of that gloomy apartment, we hit rock bottom. We were two financial services professionals making good money and bad decisions.

We were the gay cliché of living fabulous but being fabulously broke.

Like Britney after she shaved her head and Neil Patrick post-Doogie, we completely changed our lives and our finances for our big comeback. We now use our personal and professional experiences with money to help other queer folks do the same.

Start truly living fabulously with the first exercise we did to get out of debt.

When we’re not writing for our site, we're writing for Forbes, Yahoo Finance, HuffPost, Motley Fool and others. We’ve, also, been featured on CNBC, US News & World Report, MarketWatch, (link hidden), Christian Science Monitor and elsewhere.

We like to create experiences that our hosts want and that will resonate with our attendees. We don't have requirements for lighting, staging and sound, though they are nice features to have. We can augment our talks with a video or slideshow, but we don't need them. Tell us what your needs and expectations are, and we'll create a custom experience for you and your organization.
