Summary

Perhaps the biggest mistake that people make when it comes to finances is that they don’t pay themselves first. We worry too much about the rat race of paying bills that we forget to take care of ourselves and our future. While I don’t claim to be a Fiduciary or a Financial Expert, I’m just here to share with you the strategies and mindset I’ve used to dig myself out of the hole of bankruptcy. The point is if we don’t put ourselves first, we won’t be able to grow on our financial journey because we’re always prioritizing the needs of other people. Join me today to learn why taxing yourself first is the most effective thing you can do to stabilize your financial future.
