Learning to be Rich: What are you Feeding your Brain?

When you know better you do better!


First, I would like to commend you for visiting this blog and reading this post. Why? It says a lot about who you are and your interest in your finances. A big part of "Managing your Money Like a Boss" and being debt-free is knowledge. If you're reading this, that means you're actively learning and growing or reinforcing the knowledge you may already have. Have you ever heard the phrase "Knowlege is power"? It's true. Now, knowledge without action/activity is somewhat useless, but acquired knowledge gives you the power to make informed decisions. 

When it comes to managing your money, you want to be knowledgable and in power. The best way to do this is to learn as much as you can about finances, budgeting, money management, debt management, investing, etc. No one expects you to be an expert in all topics, but knowing a little something can take you far. 

Here are some ways to increase your financial knowledge:

  • Read Personal Finance Books, Newspapers, Magazines
  • Watch Personal Finance Videos, Movies, Documentaries, Shows
  • Listen to Personal Finance Audiobooks and Podcasts
  • Take Personal Finance Classes
  • Attend Finance Workshops and Seminars
  • Talk about financial topics with others (we can learn a lot from others, even if it's what not to do).
Since I can remember, I've always had an interest in learning. Learning about finances is something of great value. Because Personal Finance isn't commonly taught in schools (or wasn't) it's up to you to invest in said knowledge. Feeding your brain is just as important as feeding your stomach. Be sure you're taking in the good stuff! 😏

Just as it is beneficial to have a healthy diet, it's important to be financially fit!
