Make Money Simple Again

Ever wondered if there were a simple way to manage your money? Would you like to sleep better at night knowing your finances are in order, that you're spending less than you earn, paying down credit cards, student loans or your mortgage and building a surplus that will allow you to invest for your financial future?

Do you want to make money simple again? If so, then this book is perfect for you!

Best-selling authors Ben Kingsley and Bryce Holdaway are on a crusade to help more Australians achieve financial peace. They have developed a 7-step money management system - Money SMARTS - that, once set up, will help you achieve financial peace in less than 10 minutes a month.

“Since reading 'Make Money Simple Again' and listening religiously to your podcast, I have paid down a lot of bad personal debt, funded my wedding (which was NOT cheap) and bought our first property (an apartment in the Inner West of Sydney that we'll eventually use as an investment property down the line). I've been able to organise the household finances to simplify our bank accounts and started learning more about financial modelling in order to better determine future cash flows. I have read other finance books and other related content and you guys provide guidance that is by far the most easily digestible content. Love your work! - iTunes”

Life has become so fast-paced and complicated. Through technological innovation, we're connected 24/7, we're busier than ever before and finding it hard to balance all aspects of our lives - not least the family budget! Best-selling authors Bryce Holdaway and Ben Kingsley's new book offers a simple, proven approach that will make money simple again, helping you to spend less than you earn so that you can save and invest for your financial future. History leaves clues; back in the day our grandparents would receive cash (remember that?) in a paper pay-packet (I kid you not), then they would physically set aside the dollars to 'rent/mortgage', 'food and bills' and 'savings' - often in those old-fashioned flour jars - one for each area of expense. It was simple, and it worked. Bryce and Ben's teachings draw on this proven logic of allocating income to various financial commitments, both short and longer term, ensuring you have the right amount of money for today, but just as importantly for tomorrow. Of course, in our grandparents' days, there was no 'tap and go', no credit cards, store cards or one-click purchasing, all geared to take our money from us. The authors recognise that all these options challenge our financial willpower, but their experience, from working with thousands of people, in all stages of life, over almost two decades prove that their system works.The MoneySMARTS money management system outlined in this amazing new book, cuts through the today's challenges of digital (invisible) money, to showcase a proven, rules-based approach to ensure you are in complete control of your finances.In Make Money Simple Again they will show you how to: Know where your money goes Take control of your spending Trap your cash flow surplus each month Pay off your debts sooner Ensure you don't leave any 'money on the table' Make every dollar work harder for you Pay for holidays, kids' education, property and other big-ticket items Achieve total control of your money in this new age and invest for your financial future.Using their MoneySMARTS system, will give you financial peace in less than 10 minutes a month!
