About Me

Welcome to It’s Worth Your Wage.

Hi, I’m Todd Matherne.

This blog is built around one simple idea: helping people take ownership of their mindset, their finances, and their direction in life—especially when starting over or rebuilding feels necessary.

A little over a decade ago, I found myself starting from scratch. That experience forced me to rethink how I approached setbacks, responsibility, and long-term growth. Over time, I turned that reset into a foundation for personal and financial progress.

Today, I write about the lessons I’ve learned through real-world experience in career development, financial growth, discipline, and the mindset shifts required to move forward when life doesn’t go as planned.

A core influence in my thinking is Stoicism—the idea that while we cannot control external events, we can always control our response. That principle continues to shape how I approach challenges and long-term goals.

Through this blog, I aim to share practical reflections and lessons that can help you move forward in your own journey, whether you're rebuilding, growing, or simply looking for a clearer direction.

My goal is simple: to help you make each stage of life more intentional—and more valuable.

Thank you for being here.
