In the spirit of full disclosure, you should know that if I have a link to an external site, product or service, I might make a little money if you actually wind up signing up or buying.
But here is my promise.
1. It will never cost you more if I get a cut. Your cost would be exactly the same. If there is ever an exception, I will clearly tell you.
That said, I probably won't scour the web looking for discount or obscure sources for deals. Sometimes I do, but usually I just go straight to the source.
2. I will never recommend one product over another based on my cut. If I think a free or less expensive. service is better, I'll let you know.
Look . . . my main desire is to serve you the best. That's always in the forefront of my mind. Serving you is also how I earn my living, I feel the better job I do of serving your needs, the better I am also served.
