I’ve spent the last year learning lots of things about personal finance, but there are many personal finance bloggers out there that are way ahead of me. One of my favorite blogs is The Simple Dollar written by Trent Hamm. Trent began his journey to financial freedom 2006 and he’s managed to build a great website with lots of interesting information. One of the best posts that I bumped into was his post Everything You Ever Really Needed to Know About Personal Finance on the Back of Five Business Cards that he turned into an ebook, Everything You Ever Really Needed to Know About Personal Finance On Just One Page. The short version is this:
1. Spend Less Than You Earn
2. Earn More
3. Live Frugal
4. Manage Money
5. Control your Own Destiny
It’s short and sweet, but I think his ebook is a work of simple genius and definitely worth the read. Please take a moment to download it and sit with a good cup of coffee.
