About this site

Hi there and welcome to Rhiden.

Why should you listen to me? 

I dunno. Maybe you shouldn’t. I’m just a guy on the internet after all. 

But I do think I have some things to say.

And I think I can help share a few little bits of wisdom, a couple life hacks, and maybe a unique perspective or two.

What qualifies me? Well, if anything, I guess it’d be the following.

  • I’ve been doing this thing called life for 48 years. Certainly not as many as some, but enough to give me a little “street cred” I think.
  • On the homefront, I’m a Dad, a Husband, a Son, and a Step-Son. 
  • I’m a coach and a mentor
  • I’m a writer, a builder, a thinker, a creator
  • I’m a homeowner, a landlord, and an HOA president
  • I’m a stock investor and a bond investor, but not a crypto investor!
  • I’m a consultant, a project management professional (PMP), and a lean six sigma green belt. 
  • I’m a millionaire - times 4, almost 5, and counting. 
  • I left the rat race (sort of) at 40
  • I’m planning to retire - for real - at 50 
  • I play a little basketball, love a good hike, and generally enjoy most things with sports or outside
  • I’m a traveler who has lived overseas (for a short while) 
  • I’m a quoter of quotes and a consumer of knowledge
  • I’ve been known to geek out on "thinky thoughts" and pontificate about passions
  • I’m a planner, a resolution maker, and a dreamer
  • I didn’t have it all handed to me, but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t get some breaks and some help along the way.

Things will be up and running a bit more here shortly, but you can subscribe in the meantime if you'd like to stay up to date and receive emails when new content is published!
