I’m Will, the creator of HackingTheBank. No, this site isn’t about actually hacking banks. This blog is all about maximizing personal finance decisions so that we win instead of the banks.

Since then I’ve achieved milestones like getting married, buying a house, and tripling my income.

And all of these points came from banks; neither of us travel for work.
