How Money Works

How Money Works

Introduction

Today’s society it is consumer driven. We are bombarded with advertisements when we watch TV, listen to the radio or surf the net. Companies spend millions on research to determine how we think, shop, and live our everyday choices at the mall or grocery store mean billions to their bottom line. It’s easy to see how these natural forces of free commerce can distract us from our financial goals. And even lead us into debt. Courses in money management are practically non-existent in public schools, and every day advertisers persuade our children that spending is a virtue. 

If we don’t stop and examine our beliefs about money, then establish a step-by-step plan for achieving our goals the American Dream will remain just that – a dream!

What it Takes

If you’re like most Americans you probably know very little about personal finance. You probably spent months or years training for your profession, and now you’re too busy earning an income to learn how to manage money. Perhaps you think long term security is impossible on your income. But no matter what your income level, you can achieve financial security – if you take the time to learn a few simple principles about how money works. Armed with this simple, yet powerful information, you can begin to make independent choices that will help you reach your long-term goals.
