Recently I was watching travel videos on Youtube and a video popped up with a woman describing the “ideal designer handbag collection”. It sounded very glamorous and intriguing, so I watched it. Immediately what struck me is how much our lives have changed in the last 30 years, where everything is now a brand – handbags, cars, golf equipment –…

Are Budgets Hazardous to Your Wealth? You May Be Surprised…
A reader asks, “What can I do to get ahead? Should I try budgeting, even though I hate the idea?” There are many things you can do to get ahead and no, you don’t have to budget! Personally, I hate the idea of being so restricted and only using money set aside in envelopes or on a spreadsheet. While some…

What’s The Best Way to Build Wealth Now?
The other day I listened as a financial expert answered the question, what’s the best way to build wealth now? She said, “Earn it.” She went on to say having a job and earning money is the best way. I was appalled to hear that answer. Having a job is fine, but it is a far cry from building wealth….

5 Steps to Starting a Business
So much of the work I do involves teaching about mindset because I find that’s where a lot of people struggle.

Why Are You Acting Like That?
Recently I’ve been talking with people about trusting themselves with money. Subconsciously, a lot of women feel they have to get rid of money as soon as they have it in their possession. They spend it or reinvest it in their business right away as if there’s something bad that will happen if they keep it around. At the root…

Why You Should Have Your Own Shut-Down!
Lately I’ve been thinking about creating a new definition of wealth. The old way we used to think about wealth was pretty much about the “toys”: homes, cars, travel, clothes, shoes, jewelry, with maybe a college education and a comfortable retirement thrown in.
