About Opher Ganel
Hi. If you're here, you probably want to know a bit about who I am, what I write about, and what you can expect from me. Right? Well, since you asked so nicely... I'm unique... (just like everyone else).I'm a consultant, scientist, instrument systems engineer, entrepreneur, financial strategist, professional writer, amateur photographer and artist, insanely avid reader (I've been known to finish 3 books a week), traveler (I've lived on 3 continents and at least set foot on each of the other 4, including Antarctica, and adopter of rescue dogs.
What I Write About
When I moved to the US 30 years ago, I owed more than I owned, and supporting a young family with two toddlers on a $31k salary was hard. My journey from that humble starting point to where I am today taught me many lessons that I'm happy to share.
As part of my Financial Strategy business, I write incessantly about personal and small-business finance on Medium as well as on my own blog, Wealthtender, TherapyNotes, BareMetrics, MSN, and more.
What You Can Expect from My Writing
Expect clear, easy-to-understand, no-nonsense, often contrarian, sometimes humorous viewpoints on financial matters that affect your everyday life and your plans for a better future.
Primary Location
Baltimore, MD, USA
Compensation Methods

Education

Your honest reviews help people decide which financial professionals and educators may be best suited to their individual needs.
The majority of people trust reviews as much as personal recommendations, so what you write in your review should reflect your own opinion and experience.
Tips for Writing a Helpful Review
Be descriptive. Instead of just saying what you like or dislike, share why. What have you enjoyed most or least about your experience with the provider? Have they helped you overcome a difficult financial challenge or strengthened your knowledge about particular money matters? The more details, the better!
Be honest. Your rating and review should reflect your actual experience.
Stay relevant. Ensure your review is helpful to others by avoiding off-topic discussions or personal opinions not relevant to your direct experience.
Make your review easy to read. Reviews should be readable to others. Use proper grammar, avoid excessive capitalization or punctuation, and be sure to check your spelling.
Be yourself. Don’t post as, or pretend to be, someone else, and do not say you’re associated with a person or organization with which you are not.
Be nice. Don’t write abusive, hateful, threatening, or harassing content. Avoid personal threats, hate speech, obscenities, or inflammatory language.
Respect the privacy of others. Don’t post information that can be used to identify another individual or compromise their privacy.
