DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR MONEY IS GOING?
If you dream of earning more money, but you don’t take care of the money you have now, then you are a bit like the children who never play with their toys, but are always asking for more.
The first thing to do when you want to increase revenues is to do a thorough expense analysis. If you don’t have a clear idea of your income and your outflow, I can already assure you that you have been spending more than you thought.

WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY?
When Larry Winget, author of the book “Your Kids Are Your Own Fault” asked his readers what they wished they had learned from their parents, 99% answered HOW TO MANAGE MY FINANCES.
Did you ever ask yourself why money causes so many worries? Part of the answer lies in our education, or rather in our lack of it.
Our relationship with money is more intuitive than structured. Chances are your current behaviour towards money is more of a mix between your personality, inherited behaviours from your parents and your acquired learning through the years, rather than a clear and structured strategy.
