So you have decided to take financial education seriously? Rest assured, you’re on the right webpage because that’s all we do here at How They Made Money.

Being financially unstable is known to have adverse effects on both mental and physical health. Whether you want to start a business, pay personal bills on time, travel, buy nice things for your family and partner, or put your kids in a good school — you’re going to need money.

Unfortunately, they don’t teach us to be financially independent in school. No worries, we’ll teach each other through this publication.

Let’s understand the publication guidelines in detail.

What We’re Looking For:

We’re looking for stories about the financial success of individuals or businesses from all around the world.

Usually, we prefer stories in the form of “How X Person (or business) made Y amount of Money”.

For example,

1. How Rapper The Weeknd Made $92 Million
2. How a Teenager Made $1 Million Selling Socks

*But you’re encouraged to be creative*

If your article is not written in the format mentioned above but it can teach people how to make money, we’d like to publish it. For example, the following article is not written in the usual format, but it's still pretty powerful:

How Rockefeller Became America’s First Billionaire
