My Simple Habits Course is now enrolling!

There’s a basic formula to win at personal finance. And it’s this… Make more money than you spend. In practice it’s not that easy. In the real world our money slips through our fingers. No matter how much we make our bank account seems to have its own agenda.

In this video I breakdown common myths, pressures & misconceptions about money and how to manage it.

I've never been in debt, but I've been dependent on my parents for most of my life. I'll tell you, after years of dead end jobs and small paychecks that would come and go, it's so personally rewarding to have a stable career path and minimalist habits to see my bank account now grow for the first time!

I've been wise with my money since 7yo when I use to get £1 for pocket money, at 16 gave my first few sign up to charities. Thats what helped me save along the way.

Debt is provably the reason why society is so depressed, it is provably the dumbest thing to do in life. Even for a house, where we sign a contract for almost all our lives, because companies like Black Rock spend billions a month in real estate, while people struggle to pay for one. That's unfair and show us that governments don't really care about society, they only care about growth and not bankrupt while they are there. Never feed a bank or institution for a f***ing PS5, you are being just dumb.

This video is so Exceptional, as it answers a lot of question regarding financial independence ,enterpreneurship and how to be a good investor. Well, this year is a good year for me , as I accumulated over $500k from the bullish nature of the market. I am glad to have invested in crypto currency following instructions and allowing John Augustus Godfrey Jr a licensed investment adviser manage all my trades

It will take grace for financial literacy to be a norm, applauding my decision to start investing into the financial market earlier this year after facing the pandemic with no source of income to rely on. I am £ 17k in profits for this month I'm just glad I was bold enough

My way out was grinding harder, listening more carefully at work, volunteering for hard challenges and overcoming them. I got promoted every year, by staying at the same company or changing workplace. I didn’t upgrade my lifestyle, it stayed the same. That was the key.

Don't pour too much water into drink bottle else your water becomes stale, breed bacteria, viruses cause you to be ill, where you suffer financial losses from 1. water throw away utility costs, 2. environmental damage conscience costs (I dont have a conscience so dont apply to me :/, but I appear to others that I have a conscience.) 3. medical bills costs.

Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, It's such a pity most folks spend more and invest less while intelligent people always try to harness any investment opportunity not minding the risks involved.

Let's not forget that the biggest payouts in the markets don't come from great performances but rather it's great promotions. Stay invested, diversification for streams of incomes is very important.

My tip is track everything. You can't begin to even address your personal finances if you dont even know what your looking at.

A simple self made income statement works wonders.

List all your income and all your expenses and then subtract to the the excess money you can either save, invest or pay down debt with.
