Our mission
Our mission is to empower our readers to make financial progress. We believe progress is a journey made easier with help, so we root our content in trusted sources and independent research to give you the knowledge to reach your goals and decisions.
Our editorial principles
- Accuracy. We all have our opinions, but facts come first. Our editors rigorously fact-check and review every piece of content we publish because everyone deserves accurate information. Our articles are accurate to the best of our knowledge when published.
- Independence. Editorial content is not influenced by our marketing partners, and we draw a clear line between editorial and the rest of our business.
- Real talk. If we suggest a product, it’s because we’ve thoroughly reviewed it and believe in its value. We’re open about our enthusiasm for certain products, and we’ll tell it like it is when we don’t like a product.
- Perspective. We do our best to keep recommendations in perspective. We review both professional and homeowner products and services. We want to help you understand each product and understand the pros and cons of each product or service. Understand that professional and homeowner products are different and designed for different uses.
