Andrew Hallam

I have a romantic idea. It isn't the red roses, candlelight dinner kind of thing (although that's a nice notion too).

Instead, I want to help people spend time with the people and passions they love. Sound corny? Bear with me for a moment.

This will give you financial freedom. You'll be able to s
