About Martin

North Philly born and bred, Martin is the sixth of 13 children, though that's irrelevant to anything or anyone altogether. He's not the middle child, but readers can figure that out on their own just by doing simple math. Martin is a Small Business and Nonprofit Financial Management Consultant. Oddly, the condition of only ever seeing finance - not money - hasn't changed. Go figure. (Pun intended.)
