Get Started

Get Started

We all have to start somewhere on our financial journey. I set up this site to help everyone, no matter where they are starting from.

I reckon there are three stages to financial freedom, which, if you get right consistently, will ensure you end up wealthy in whatever definition of that word applies to you. The three steps are:

  • Budget – Spend less than you earn
  • Protect – Insure yourself and your family against disaster
  • Invest – Make sure the money you save is put to good use, keeping down costs and tax

I've linked to a couple of videos in the sidebar to the right which will help you with the Budget part of this process. These posts offer even more.

Finally, click here for all the content in the Get Started category and don’t forget you can always use the search function at the top right to find whatever you need.
