  • Why Planning & Budgeting is Critical to Becoming Financially Free
    I would like to introduce you to the real meaning of budgeting. Forget about the concept of restriction and restraint often associated with household budgets and start thinking about your finances in the same way that good businesses do.
  • Who Killed Heath Ledger? The Real Truth Behind the Drugs
    The City of New York's Report concluded that Heath Ledger's cause of death was the result of acute intoxication by the lethal combination of prescription drugs such as narcotic analgesics and sleeping aids. However, the medical community have ignored the real underlying prescription drug class that often leads to habitual drug dependency with dangerous lethal consequences.
  • Safe Investing - Where to Start
    It is great that many people are now searching for good financial advice. With past generations, the typical financial advice passed down from parents to children was: buy a home, pay it off as quickly as possible and then - if you are really good at managing your money - buy an investment property. So what are the basics of sound, practical and realistic investing?
  • If You Want to Become Wealthy Play Win-Win
    A few years ago, I designed a game to teach people how to master wealth creation. For this, I used the basic Monopoly game but changed the rules somewhat to create a situation that follows the six stages of the Money Program.
  • Why Goals Fail - New Research
    There are two reasons why goals fail or we give up trying to achieve a specific goal. When I first learnt this, I knew I finally found the Holy Grail of goal achievement.
  • 95% of Businesses Fail: Don't Let Yours Be One of Them!
    "Up to ninety per cent of businesses fail in their first five years of operation" The first time I heard this was many years ago during an accounting seminar. At that time, it sounded rather unbelievable; however, I now believe those statistics are true and probably higher or occur within shorter time spans, especially during times of global economic stress.
  • Money & The Law Of Attraction
    Nature is magnificently abundant; rich in color, growth and expansion. There is no scarcity on this planet, except that which exists in our minds
  • Women Beware of Doctors Over-Prescribing Drugs
    I recall the wisdom of a friend who once said, "Educate the mother and you educate the family". He was speaking of higher values at the time, but those words ring ominously in my mind now. Was the Rolling Stones' 1960s hit "Mother's Little Helper" a warning we didn't heed?
  • Business Success - Learn From the World's Oldest Fortune 500 Company
    For those who don't know, the Jardine Matheson Group is one of the most legendary business stories of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. What is the secret of their success?
  • How To Create More Income
    Very few of us focus on increasing our income in hard times, which is exactly what we should do. Creating more income is also a more positive approach than merely cutting back our spending.
  • How To Live Within Your Means
    There is a simple, effective formula that everyone can apply to easily manage their finances. I call this the 40%-30%-20%-10% rule. This formula is used to measure your expenditure and cash outflows. You divide your expenditure into four categories and calculate the total of each category as a percentage of your net (after tax) income.
  • Rules for Investing- How To Build a Portfolio of Safe, Secure Investments
    In order to invest wisely, you need to have a suitable investment plan that will ensure the appropriate amount of growth for you. Your investments will also need to be safe and easy to manage.
  • Know Your Finances - The 1st Step Towards Financial Freedom
    One of the greatest mistakes you can make in managing money is not knowing where your money is going. About 90% of people who come to see me do not know exactly how they spend their money. Some may have small notebooks where they scrawl their monthly accounts but when they start to put everything down on paper, they are always surprised, if not shocked, to see the real state of their finances.
  • Making Money - It is All in Your Mind
    Making money is 90% thought and 10% know-how. When I work with clients, I find the first major hurdle to overcome is their belief system governing money.
  • One of the Most Important Rules of Money Management
    The lack of money is often not our problem, it is the way we spend it. Wealthy people tend to spend money on things that increase in value or provide them with a return on their investment. People who are not wealthy spend the bulk of their money on items that perish, depreciate or have no return on their investment.
