About Us
Money moves differently for everyone. Your priorities, your timeline, your definition of enough—it all matters. My Money Search helps you see that picture more clearly, offering practical wisdom and strategic insight for the money decisions that shape your future. Because the right information at the right moment can change everything.
How It All Started
You know that moment when a friend leans across the table, lowers their voice, and confides, “I wish someone had just explained it this way sooner”? That’s the spark that launched My Money Search. Our founder, Maya, remembers feeling overwhelmed by the avalanche of advice online, wondering why even simple money questions came with so much confusion.
At a family dinner, laughter turned into a mini money Q&A—everyone swapping stories, hard-won tips, and “aha!” moments. That night, it clicked: maybe real change starts with honest, judgment-free conversations.
We set out to build that circle of trust. My Money Search isn’t about perfect spreadsheets or intimidating expertise. It’s about sharing real solutions, small wins, and the kind of encouragement that leaves you thinking, “Hey, I can do this.” Our story is yours too: discovery, growth, and the confidence to write your own financial chapter.
Find your financial edge.
Financial decisions shape the life you live—from the small daily choices to the milestones that define your future. My Money Search exists to give you the knowledge and tools to navigate both with confidence. We believe in practical wisdom over perfection, and in helping you craft a financial story that feels authentically yours.

- Action You Can Take: Our advice is handy, bite-sized, and fits into the rhythm of real life.

Your money journey is unique. Whether you’re repairing, growing, or simply learning, we’ve got your back through our three core pillars:
- Credit & Debt: Wondering how credit scores, loan terms, or payoff strategies really work? We break it all down—no judgment, just practical advice tailored to today’s world.
- Building Wealth: Dreaming of bigger milestones and a future on your terms? We walk you through saving, investing, and the not-so-obvious steps to growing your assets, big or small.
