Manage money, plan for the future in five simple steps

Becoming your own financial hero is simpler than you think. The principles of financial security have been cloaked in mystery for generations. Money plays a key role in our daily lives, but for many of us, these skills were not taught or developed at a young age.

THE MONEY BASICS: How to Become Your Own Financial Hero is the straightforward, practical guide to money management, based on Peter Komolafe’s innovative and accessible five-step B. A. S. I. C. approach: Budget, Avoid Debt, Save Early, Invest Early and Credit Score.

Anyone can implement these methods, no matter what your financial situation. Learn the principles of financial security by cutting through the murk and jargon.

The Money Basics will:
· Help you identify poor money habits
· Set you on a budgeting plan that works for you
· Demystify financial terms and processes
· Provide you with a system to control debt, not let it control you
· Define investing once and for all
· And more…

Manage money, and plan for the future with confidence. Take control of the one thing that will give you freedom of choice—money.
