Author: Saeed Darabi

Saeed Darabi is the founder of MoneyPantry and the author of the articles on this page. He established the site in 2013, not just as a publication, but as a real-time documentation of his own journey: successfully leaving the 9-to-5 world to build an independent and profitable online business.

 

His expertise isn't theoretical; it's forged from nearly a decade of firsthand experimentation. He specializes in the side hustle economy and online income generation, personally testing and vetting countless strategies to find what truly delivers results. His core skill is translating these ventures into simple, proven, and actionable roadmaps for his readers.

 

This hands-on, "in the trenches" approach has made MoneyPantry a leading authority in its niche. As a result, Saeed's expertise is recognized by major financial publications, with his work being cited and featured in Forbes, Business Insider, Yahoo Finance, GoBankingRates and MSN Money.
