ANECDOTE

Aldi Protein Tub And PB Fit Hack

  • Matt uses Aldi elevation protein powder for years and tracks price-per-gram; he finds it extremely cheap.
  • He improves flavor with PB Fit and rotates brands when he tires of a flavor.
INSIGHT

Match Supplements To Goals

  • Most people overestimate how much supplemental protein they need and forget that dietary context matters.
  • Match supplements (like creatine) to your actual training goals before spending money.
ADVICE

Shop Lenders; Compare VA Versus Conventional

  • Shop multiple lenders and compare VA vs conventional loan terms rather than assuming one is always better.
  • If VA offers lower rates and you will invest the savings wisely, using VA with disciplined investing can make sense.
