I’ve built service businesses where a few high-ticket clients beat dozens of low-paying ones. Bridal hair is exactly that—a premium, event-based service when priced and scheduled with discipline.

Final Wall Street Insight
$2,500 a month in bridal hair isn’t volume. It’s 10 well-priced clients and a protected calendar.
I'm Richard Polk Vaughan, head writer at The Daily Credit, where I blend Wall Street expertise with freelance hustle. Crafting investment strategies and advising clients is my game, but I also dive into affiliate marketing and social media strategy. Outside work, you’ll find me on the tennis court or golf course, and I never say no to a good pizza. Balancing work, play, and passion keeps me sharp and ahead of the curve.
