Look, our mission is pretty simple: make finance slightly less terrifying. Maybe even understandable? We provide tools that (mostly) work and articles that (hopefully) make sense without needing a PhD in Economics.
Whether you're trying to figure out where your money vanished *again*, contemplating the void of retirement planning, or just curious what 'amortization' means (don't worry, we had to look it up too), we're here to help. Or at least, provide some calculators.
The Origin Story (Less Exciting Than Superheroes)
PinnacleBloom Finance wasn't forged in the fires of Mount Doom. It mostly started because Lohith got really annoyed trying to use other finance websites that looked like they were built during the dial-up era.
Armed with dangerous amounts of caffeine, an internet connection, and a vague understanding of web development, this site sputtered into existence. It's a perpetual work-in-progress, fueled by instant coffee, frantic debugging sessions, and the occasional encouraging email from people like you (hint, hint).
Our Core Beliefs (Probably)
Clarity-ish: We try *really* hard not to sound like robots reading a textbook. Sometimes we succeed.
Accuracy (Mostly): We double-check our calculators and research stuff. But hey, this isn't formal financial advice. Don't make life-altering decisions based *solely* on a website built by one person, okay?
Accessibility: Money knowledge shouldn't be locked behind confusing language or paywalls.
Empowerment: You can totally handle your finances. We just provide some tools and maybe a few laughs along the way.
Humor (Attempted): We think finance needs more jokes. Quality may vary. You've been warned.
The One-Person Circus
Behind the curtain, pulling the levers and occasionally spilling coffee on the keyboard, there's just:

Exploring Finance Alongside You
Yep, that's it. Just me, trying to make sense of finance and share what I learn. If something's broken, it's probably my fault. If something's helpful, I might have gotten lucky.
Wander Around!
Go on, poke the calculators, read the blog posts (if you dare), and feel free to let me know what you think or what else you'd like to see!
