Coins In The Sofa

It is never too early to learn some foundations of personal finance. I have come across hundreds if not thousands of adults and young adults who have no strategy around their personal financial situation, Most of them don't seem to know where to begin to learn. Worse yet are the ones who think they are financially savvy even though they are clueless. Too many people are in the vicious circles of working for a paycheck. Then spending more than their paycheck. They live their lives in an endless downward spiral that they can't escape from. I don't want you to be one of those people. Reading this book will give you a solid base of financial knowledge. I want you to understand the appeal and dangers of credit cards. I want you to learn why it is so important to being saving early and regularly (even if it isn't a huge amount). And finally, I don't want you to be taken advantage of by someone who will benefit from your naiveness. If you are a parent or grandparent, this book can change your child's life. Teaching them about how to handle their finances is much more important than giving them another electronic gadget. Things are much different than they were when you or I were younger. This knowledge will give the reader a leg up in thinking about finances that will impact them their entire life.
