In this episode, the last one of the season, I speak about the seven steps to help balance your finances and help you build a solid path for wealth. These steps cover most of the situations and it doesn't matter if you are on step 1 or 3 or 4… but understanding your situation and what should be the next one will be important to avoid financial traps. And before you think this is a magic formula to get rich quicker, be aware that it is the opposite - they take time to be achieved and the consistency of working on them is what will make it happen. But knowing the roadmap can definitely save you a lot of trial and error (a.k.a. saving you time and money!)

In this episode I speak about the correlation between money and happiness. It is said that more money will not bring us more happiness (debatable when you are struggling with bills, I agree!). However, once we have our basic needs satisfied we should take a look at what else would truly be bringing happiness, as ultimately, waste of money is to spend on things you don’t truly want and we all should work to achieve our dreams. And how to make a dream come to a life? By having a plan - so in this episode, I also help you translate your dreams into plans with some practical examples!

In this episode I speak about a tool that can keep you out of trouble and also leverage opportunities: the emergency fund. The emergency fund helped us have a ‘piece of mind’ and it is the foundation of our financial well-being. We have worked on building it to a comfortable level before any other plans and now we divide our efforts between the ‘ideal’ level and our short-term plans.

In this episode I speak about budgeting, how this helped us achieve our goals and how it can help you to start planning and achieve more of your plans… and perhaps even what you didn’t plan! I also speak about how budgeting should not be mistaken by living in a strict way, but instead, how we minimise expenses to maximise our gains.
