Income Buddies’s Story
Started With Earning My First $1
In 2006, I earned my first dollar selling online. It was a small start, but it got me interested in money, income and the idea of becoming financially independent.
My Investing Journey Began
I started investing during the Global Financial Crisis. I had a lot to learn, but it sparked my interest in understanding money, investing and financial freedom.
IncomeBuddies Was Born
I started IncomeBuddies as a personal financial journal to document what I was learning and explain investing in a simpler, more approachable way.
Start Small, Dream Big
In 2023, I published Start Small, Dream Big, a book about overcoming procrastination, taking action and making progress towards the goals that matter to you.
The idea started from the lessons I wanted to pass on to my future children about taking action instead of waiting for the perfect moment.

Antony Learns
In 2026, I started Antony Learns as another way to share what I am learning about investing, dividends and building passive income.
The videos are simple, practical and based on the same idea behind IncomeBuddies: make investing easier to understand without the unnecessary jargon.

Today, IncomeBuddies focuses mainly on dividend investing, ETFs, REITs, brokerages and building long-term passive income. I continue to research, test and share what I learn along the way.
