No trust funds. No finance degrees. Just two Kokomo locals who learned money the hard way and decided to share what actually works.
PoshPocket was founded in 2019 by two friends who grew up in middle-class Indiana households where money was never discussed openly. By our late twenties, we had accumulated student loan debt, maxed-out credit cards, and no savings โ despite earning decent incomes.
We spent three years consuming every book, course, and podcast on personal finance. We paid off a combined $67,000 in debt. We built emergency funds. We started investing. And then we realized: the information that changed our lives should be free, accessible, and written for people like us โ not Wall Street professionals.
PoshPocket now reaches 240,000+ readers per month across the U.S. Every article, tool, and guide is built with one question in mind: What would actually help a real person with a real paycheck right now?
We'll tell you when something is a bad financial decision, even if it's popular. Your long-term wealth matters more than viral content.
Every claim we make cites a source. We don't repeat myths or share tactics that haven't been tested by real data and real people.
We disclose all affiliate relationships clearly. We never accept payment to recommend a product we wouldn't use ourselves.
Good financial advice shouldn't require a $5,000 coaching package. PoshPocket's core content will always be free.
