Certified Personal Finance Counselor
Jonathon Miko
Chicago, IL

Bachelor's Degree in Finance
I started Your Budget Friend out of a joint love of both helping people and all things personal finance. Managing personal finance can be a very nerve-wracking, confusing, or frustrating experience for many people, so I set out to create an experience where people can learn and improve without fear of nervousness or embarrassment.
I always say that Personal Finance is 10% Finance and 90% Personal. It's a topic and skill that can have major impacts on a person's life, so being able to help people feel more comfortable talking about money, plan a major purchase, or start their personal finance journey from the beginning is a very rewarding feeling!
