About Me

IMG-9450.JPG

Greetings all and welcome to The Infamous CPA Blog!

My name is Brian Robinson. To keep it short, here’s a snapshot of who I am…

  • I am from the South Suburbs of Chicago
  • Graduated with B.S. in Accountancy from Northern Illinois University
  • Certified Public Accountant, licensed in Illinois
  • Board Certified Credit Consultant
  • Entrepreneur
  • Auditor
  • Personal Finance Coach

To sum all that up, I’m a kid with a dream of empowering others financially to live their best life. 

But I wasn’t always financially savvy…

Shortly after beginning my career in public accounting, I became aware of the lack of financial education possessed by many millennials, including myself, so I first focused on being the change I wanted to see.

Through a host of bad decisions made during my college career, I found myself in a terrible spot financially. For more details, read “Nobody’s Perfect: How I Changed My Financial Trajectory

But through education, budgeting, investing and a little delayed gratification, I was able to…

  • increase net worth by $27k
  • increase credit score by 120+ points
  • saved over $13k
  • paid off $14k of debt

All in less than a year.

Now my goal is to empower others financially to live their best life and create generational wealth for their families. I hope you not only enjoy reading, but learn something in the process.

Thanks for reading and always remember N O T H I N G can stop you but you!
