Financial literacy gives you the tools to build your personal financial statement… which tells you the story about how you are managing your cash flow. The language of money can be confusing and intimidating. But, like it or not, ‘money’ in all of its shapes and forms is a part of our daily lives. And the more we understand money, and the language of money, the more power we have over our future. Words are the most powerful tools you can possess. Challenge yourself and your family to master the language of money. The lessons in this book are simple ones and, like those in Rich Dad Poor Dad, they have guided me over the years. I learned that the path to wealth wasn’t about being obsessed with getting the high-paying job or striving for the next promotion and pay raise. I learned that my financial destiny was not dependent upon my boss, a pay raise, the company, the economy, or luck. I learned that I could be in control.
