Atticus & Verses

Financial strategies for college students, recent graduates, and young professionals. I have read every personal finance book you can think so, and I got my degree in business economics specializing in behavioral economics and finance. I am going to teach you all of the secrets of the finance world without having to get a degree and sit through some boring courses. Start here: Build an automated budgeting, savings, and investing system. Skip the psychological torture of figuring out the budget in the spread sheets use the APP YOU NEED A BUDGET. Credit card: Treat your credit card as your debt card Automate full payments every month Banks: Stay away from traditional banks. Use high-interest savings accounts to save for cars, vacations, weddings, etc Investment: Low-cost index funds that track the market. Low expense ratio(management fees) 1% management fee will cost you 28% in future earnings 2% is over 50% Asset allocation affects 90% of your portfolio volatility. Lazy? Automate invest in a target-date fund. It does the asset allocation for you. I am teaching a six weeks class that goes in-depth about these topics, step by step. 300+ members strong. Hit the website link on my bio, and let's get started on building a secure financial foundation. (at Manhattan, NYC) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8K9fZ3nQJn/?igshid=n35573ae5it9

Greaser was a term coined by outsiders (similar to how we use the term "hipster" today) to refer to a predominantly working class of young adults and teenagers in urban areas of the United States, particularly Italian and Hispanic Americans. Greasers were originally poor kids who couldn't afford nice clothing, so they would wear their work clothes, which typically consisted of white tank tops, t-shirts and jeans. And while this style has now become iconic, being a greaser was not a just fashion statement. Some greasers did engage in violence and illegal activities, but it wasn't a way of life like it is in modern organized gangs. The war on drugs during the 1970s and the emergence of crack on the market during the 1980s was largely responsible for the rise of organized violent gangs in the United States.

The shadow self is the repressed self. It is also your deepest insecurities, fears, and vulnerabilities. The formation of the shadow is the child or the side of you that was deemed to be undesirable by society. Through repression, it hides away but rises to the surface in times of distress. What is your shadow self? What have you been working on in your life? (at Wilmington, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5tVq7hncOh/?igshid=muoexw0ruugx

I have been studying Carl Jung's study of archetypes. Archetypes are prevalent cross-culturally and present throughout history. They represent the collective psyche of humanity. I would love to know what your archetype is! (at Wilmington, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5mLOk4FPN4/?igshid=1gn2jesdbp37

Not all is lost. Much is gained from experiences in life. However, these experiences often caused us a lot of pain. We have to look at life from a different lens and realize that it is not a final destination we are heading towards but a return into the beginning. The afterlife is the same as before life. All the same as one entity. #typewriter #spilledthoughts #instapoem #poetryisnotdead #instapoetry #spilledink #spilledinkpoetry #instagrampoetry #poeticjustice #writerstag #writingprompts #poemasdeamor #communityofpoets #poemsaboutlove #micropoetry #wordsofadvice #poetsoninstagram #poetrysociety #poemsporn_ #writers_den_ #writergram #writersofig #writers_together #writers_around #writerproblems #poemsporn_ #poemsdaily #poemsociety #poemsoftheday #poemsforher (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5ES418l6PV/?igshid=x6piuw3evrbe

I am always questioning about our existence. It's either a total coincidence or absolutely magic. So what are you doing with your life? I want to know; I am curious about how people choose to live their lives. (at Wilmington, North Carolina) https://www.instagram.com/p/B46aOxtFBtY/?igshid=l31pbeo6zf3k

#Repost @the.holistic.psychologist • • • • • • In the old paradigm love was dependency. It based in a need to fix or rescue someone. Our movies, songs, and tv show reflect this back to us. In the old paradigm love meant a trauma bond where two people unconsciously re-enacted their pasts. This is why generational trauma continued to be repeated in cycles. Know better, do better. That’s where we are at now: conscious dating. When you meet a new partner, you aren’t just meeting a person. You’re meeting their upbringing, their conditioning. You are meeting their unresolved trauma, their attachment style, + their core beliefs about who they are and what you should be to them. When we have unresolved trauma, we don’t take the time to learn about these parts of another human being. We are too consumed with being chosen. We are too consumed with the validation that is fleeting. We become demanding and needy. Then we’re eventually resentful always thinking about the “greener grass” where someone can give us worthiness. This is why people cheat on their partners. It’s not lack of love: it’s unhealed insecurity. Conscious dating takes self awareness, humility, and work to work through triggers. It takes brutal honesty both with self and other. Conscious dating question: drop them below. I’m happy to answer! #selfhealers (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4QL13_FviS/?igshid=1jteg1hnhkjqz
