- Hey! We are Kelan and Brittany Kline, the founders of The Savvy Couple. After struggling for years to find the right career paths and pay down our $40,000 of student loan debt we finally had enough! We buckled down and go serious learning everything we possible could about personal finance. That’s when we knew a traditional career path for us was not going to cut it. We decided to start our personal finance blog as a side hustle in 2016 and have not looked back.
