"It's good to have money and the things that money can buy, but it's good, too, to check up once in a while and make sure that you haven't lost the things that money can't buy." -George Lorimer
As a former financial professional, I helped people see how they could make their money work for them. One of my mentors (through books and videos) is Dave Ramsey. Though I don't agree with 100% of everything that he says every time, I think that his guiding principles are a strong foundation for everyone wanting control of his or her's finances. Today, I'd like to share a little video of Dave speaking, and I feel that his ideas are often counter cultural... to me, they feel like a slap in the face to bad habits that get good people into bad money trouble.
What principles guide your finances? Do you have any financial mentors?
