About me

Hi, I’m Maria, but my friends call me Riri.

I created The Income Edit because I believe your paycheck should not be your only plan. I am learning, building, and exploring online income opportunities right alongside you. When I find useful education, tools, and opportunities, I bring them here so you do not have to search everywhere on your own.

I know many of us are thinking seriously about rising costs, retirement, and what it means to have a little more breathing room, especially after 40. My goal is to help you understand your options, choose a path that fits your life, and take your next step with more confidence.

I am not here to promise overnight results. I am here to share what I know, what I am trying, and the resources I have my hands on so you can decide what feels right for you.

Outcomes vary based on the path, time, effort, skill, market conditions, and other factors. Trading involves financial risk, including the possible loss of capital.
