The advice is significant: start planning now to secure your financial future.
Wealth management specialist Jacqui Clarke looks at navigating difficult financial times and leaving a legacy.
Stop Worrying About Money shows us how to navigate challenging obstacles and get financially independent sooner. It provides a practical guide to dealing with life’s most common and challenging financial obstacles.
The reality for most of us is the more income we earn, the more frivolous we become, and we’re not ready for when life gets tough. All this adds up to worry, which compounds over time, but the good news is that you can do something about it.
Not only can you turn around your balance, but also your relationship with money into a more practical, positive and useful tool to get what you really want from life. You can plan strategically for youself and your family’s future.
“To protect and preserve it and share your money in a consistent and fulfilling way, without adding more stress and anxiety.” Notwithstanding setbacks you can build and re-build a more enduring positive relationship with money along the way.
Jacqui unpacks over three decades of experience, including 20 years as a partner at Deloitte, to help you clarify your values, set goals and be upfront and honest about your money — both with yourself and with others — to re-assess what financial independence and freedom means to you.
Accessibly written and filled with feasible advice, Stop Worrying about Money is the energising, no-nonsense financial wake-up call you need to take back control of your money, avoid common financial pitfalls and prepare for whatever life throws at you
