Episode 2206: 7 Money-Smart Ways to Spend Your Tax Refund by Andy Hill

Andy Hill is a husband and father to two awesome (and crazy) kids and they hail from the great state of Michigan. His goal is to give his family the best life possible and strengthen their family tree for generations to come.

In 2016, he got so geeked about this topic of young family finance that he decided to start a blog and podcast about it. It began as a hobby and then morphed into a fun side hustle when people started to enjoy the information he was sharing. Fast forward to today, he’s left his corporate event marketing career behind and is now a full-time blogger and podcaster who has been featured in major media outlets like CNBC, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance and NBC News
