Anna-Louise’s thoughts on financial planning
“When you finally decide to take control of your finances, you’ll appreciate prioritizing this decision — and, potentially, regret that you didn’t do so sooner. But what does that mean? It means starting with one decision that improves your financial situation, and then another decision and then another decision.”
