Hi, I’m Alex.

I’m a 20-something living in PEI, Canada, originally from England. I bought my first home at 24, navigated university debt, built credit from scratch, and have been figuring out the big stuff as I go — just like most people my age.

This blog exists because I couldn’t find the advice I actually needed when I was starting out. Not the generic “save 10% of your income” stuff. Real, specific, experience-based guidance from someone who’s actually been through it in Canada.

So that’s what I write about. Buying a home. Managing money. Building a career. Making decisions that actually move your life forward.

No corporate fluff. No AI-generated filler. Just what I’ve learned, what worked, and what I’d do differently.

If you’re in your 20s or 30s trying to build something real — you’re in the right place.
