Website Founder: Dan Meyerson
Hello, my name is Dan Meyerson, and thank you for coming to my website, Free Fundamentals. I have spent a lot of time and work on it, and it has helped me to fulfill a dream I had many years ago, before the internet was mainstream, of providing the fundamental information on it. Now, with the internet, I can write content, which I enjoy doing, and reach people more easily at their pace, than in a classroom. I am funding this website myself, but do not worry, it is not expensive, and it will not be difficult to maintain it, financially.
My Authority on the Content Provided
In case you are wondering how I am an authority on the content provided on this website, I actually do not consider myself one. A lot of the information on it comes from common knowledge, while the rest is from personal experience. I have had a great interest, and learned a lot about each of the Key Life Areas discussed on it, over time, and thought it would be a good idea to help people with the basics of them, to help create a positive balance to build on, that can last a lifetime, as opposed to following the latest fads or trends. Discovering ways to help the community was an idea that I had later on, to help people not only feel better about their own lifestyles, but also feel better about the world around them.
My Unique General Qualifications
While I am not licensed or certified in any of the 5 Key Life Areas promoted, I consider myself uniquely qualified to organize the information on them, due to having considerable practical experience in each area (listed below). This helps me in my goal to provide helpful and reliable information to you, by being able to understand the topics on a general level, and link to respected resources that I am familiar with, or easily locate, that can provide more accurate detail.
