Why should I pay to get help with my finances when there are plenty of free or low-cost options available?
Since I’m a coach that specializes in helping people who don’t know how to budget, you can imagine how many times I’ve been asked this question. And it’s perfectly valid.
The funny thing is, the people who are asking that question, aren’t asking questions like: why should I save so I don’t live paycheck to paycheck? Why should I control my spending so I can pay my bills?
Those are valid questions too!
The reason why people need to pay for help in areas they haven’t been successful in (finances included), is because they haven’t been able to figure it out themselves up until this point.
That’s not to say that no one can figure it out themselves. I sure did, as far as my finances go…But, it wasn’t easy.
It wasn’t overnight. It would have happened a lot faster with the right guide.
In this episode, I’m sharing why you need to invest in your financial success, and why it’s perfectly okay to spend money to get better with it.
Here’s a glance at this episode:
