About

Hi, I’m Edson — a husband, father, longtime software engineer, and someone who’s always looking for ways to grow, learn, and build a more intentional life. After spending decades in tech, I’ve become increasingly interested in how money, habits, and mindset shape the freedom we have in our everyday lives.

I’m passionate about financial independence and the FIRE movement, and I enjoy exploring everything from personal finance hacks to real estate investing. Personal growth is a big part of my journey too — trying to become a little better and a little more intentional each year.

Outside of work and finance, you’ll usually find me doing something that brings me joy: fishing, squidding, throwing darts, or tinkering with a home project.

This blog is a place where I share a mix of:

  • Financial independence and personal finance insights
  • Real estate and home project hacks
  • Life experiences, reflections, and travel
  • Hobbies and the things that keep me grounded

And it’s not just me — my family may also contribute from time to time. Whether it’s sharing their own experiences, perspectives, or projects, this space is meant to reflect our life as a whole, not just mine.

If you’re on your own journey toward financial freedom, personal growth, or simply trying to live a more intentional life, I’m glad you’re here. I hope something you find on this site helps you along your path.

We’re the Reyes Family
