How to Improve Your Resume Profile With Your Own Linkedin Address
One of the easiest ways to add an ounce of professionalism is to customize your public profile URL. Follow this step by step way to edit your public profile URL. Goal: Instead of saying linkedin.com/in/23679523965; it will say linkedin.com/in/yourname. It’s a great way to promote your brand and allow others to perceive your awesomeness.

Waiting until you are in your 60s is a death sentence. Savvy investors understand the benefits of investing early and taking advantage of the potential gains from compound interest.
