Early Life
Lyn was born in Atlantic City in 1990 and growing up, Lyn and her mother were homeless for several years. They lived in shelters, motels, and even a car for a time. Her mother was actually a lawyer and earned a high income but ran into difficulty after losing her job.
Fortunately, her situation improved over time, and moved into a trailer park with her father. Because of these difficult circumstances, she got into saving and investing at a young age. To attend college Lyn got a $50,000 student loan and worked part-time while getting a degree in Engineering at Penn State University.
