About Us

Managing money shouldn’t be a second job.

Anyone can get good with money. Most explanations just make it feel harder than it is.

Money sucks. I’ll always be in debt. I’ll never be able to retire. Who understands things like 401(k)s or stocks? Why didn’t they teach us this stuff in school?

If you’ve had these thoughts, you’re not alone. Most of us hit life’s biggest money moments with zero preparation. Paying for college, buying a home, starting a family, retiring: nobody taught us any of it.

The usual fix is a 3,000-word article you’ll never finish. We took the opposite approach.

Every Money Crashers post delivers one useful thing in a few hundred words: what to do, why it works, and how to start. Each one leads with Just the Tip, the takeaway right up top. Whether you’re a new grad or a seasoned investor, you get the point in a couple of minutes and get on with your day.

Andrew Schrage

CEO & Co-founder
Andrew started his career at a Chicago hedge fund and quickly noticed a problem: the people who most needed financial guidance weren’t getting any. He co-founded Money Crashers to fix that with free, plain-language money education. He’s been interviewed by MSNBC, CBS News, NBC News, and Fox News, and featured in Forbes and US News & World Report. Off the clock he plays ice hockey and tennis, and meditates. Andrew holds a bachelor’s in economics from Brown University.

Gyutae Park

CTO & Co-founder
Gyutae grew up building websites and turned that into a career as a strategist at a top New York digital marketing agency, advising global companies like Boehringer Ingelheim, SAP, and Nokia. In 2009, after seeing how little financial education young people actually get (himself included), he co-founded Money Crashers to help people make smart money decisions. He spends his free time hunting down deals and playing the drums. Gyutae holds a bachelor’s in industrial engineering from Northwestern University.
