How I Got Started Blogging

Tom JohnsonFrom the beginning I always had an interest in, and a passion for, technology. Going back to 1980 and the days of the Commodore VIC 20 (my first computer with 5k of RAM on board, LOL!) and programming Radio Shack TRS-80’s in middle school (love that command line), I knew this was something I wanted to do for my career. During high school I went to a local technical school to learn more programming in the classic languages of COBOL and RPG-II. After graduation I went off to college at Clarion University to get a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Applications and Information Systems. This degree had a focus on computer applications with a business foundation. This dual education in two fields of study really set the stage for how my career and my interests were developed. I went on to get an MBA from Clarion and to become licensed as a CPA for the state of Pennsylvania. I am a technology executive for a healthcare system in Western PA and a thought leader in the area of health information technology. In my free time I like to experiment with new technologies and apply my financial expertise to find new ways to create value. This new value could be in the form of saving time, saving money or creating new passive income. My time is spent at the intersection of personal technology and personal finance (TechMoney – sometimes referred to online). I have had so many friends and family members ask me about how to save money with their smartphones that I decided to start this blog so that everyone could take advantage of my strategies, tips, tricks, and insights.

I hope you find some value from my insights and share them with the people in your life.

“First, I loved your book. Quick, easy to read, usable immediately. I didn’t even know Upromise existed. There are plenty of other just very easy ways for me to make money in the book, but really Upromise was a wake-up slap across the face right out of the gate and I think is just super easy. I’m setting up an account. Why not just buy the gift cards then use those cards to buy other items (if they let you) for double commission? It’s all free money. Great read.”

“I knew that I recognized your name when I found your profile on LinkedIn. I purchased your Kindle book for my son who is a college student. He’s a big fan of automation, Stacking and has certainly benefited from my Upromise account with his tuition .”
