Hamid Salehi founded Arcanomy, a personal finance site focused on the psychology behind how people actually handle money. He holds an MBA from UCLA Anderson and a Ph.D. from the University of Waterloo, with 18 years of work across fintech, semiconductors, data centers, and startups. He writes about personal finance, behavioral money habits, FIRE and financial independence, investing and retirement planning, fintech, AI in personal finance, and why standard money advice so often fails in practice. For him, money shows up as identity, fear, ambition, and habit. Arcanomy is where he works that out in public.
