A few foundational principles of money management
1. The best thing money can buy is Financial Freedom. Understand why we do what we do so we can make small changes.
2. There's a hole in my pocket. Taking control of money is a process.
3. Got me going to the bank. An unbanked/under-banked consumer spends over $3,000/year in converting income into cash and cash into payments.
4. Crack the Credit Code. With a little planning and patience, everyone can boost their credit.
5. Till Death do us part. Smart borrowing is another way we build our wealth.
6. An ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure. The more you know, the more you can protect yourself.
7. Homeownership. Where do you even start?
8. Protect what you build. Understand the concepts behind insurance.
9. Invest. Because it is not what you make, but what you do with it that matters!
10. Estate Planning. Every one should know the basics and plan accordingly.
11. You and the IRS. It helps to know what could get you in the cross-hairs with the IRS.
