Financial Education Series Episode 3
What does paying yourself first mean?
In our work, we are fortunate to speak to many people and have many business owners as clients. I often discuss paying yourself first, and the response is almost always the same. How do you do it?
It means you should contribute towards your investments, whether a savings account, another bank account or an investment account, before you pay anything else.
People immediately think of money and investing when you say the best investment. Best investments can also mean a new skill or new skills if you are talented. An example writing articles is a new skill I am learning.

Book
best books on financial freedom
The Millionaire Next Door is a book review about how most millionaires in the United States achieved their wealth. It was written by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko, two professors from the University of Georgia. The book tries to dispel some common myths about millionaires, such as the idea that they all inherited their money or lived in mansions. Instead, the authors argue that most millionaires are pretty frugal and have achieved their wealth through hard work and disciplined saving. While some have criticized the book for its generalizations, it provides an exciting perspective on wealth accumulation in America.
