Description

Are you ready to create a simple, powerful budget in just 30 minutes? Budget Basics will teach you everything you need to know to start budgeting, transform your relationship with money, and become debt-free.

Why Take This Course?

  • Create a simple, powerful budget that you'll actually use in just 30 minutes
  • Learn how to get out of debt and save money for the future without living like a monk
  • Build a daily budgeting habit that transforms your relationship with money.

-------------------------------------------------------

Are you in debt? Do you have enough savings? Do know where your money goes every month? Most importantly, does the way you spend money, and the lifestyle it gives you, really make you happy?

If you’re like most Americans, you're probably not as confident as you'd like to be about your finances.

In Budget Basics, you'll learn how to cut unnecessary spending, reach your financial goals, and feel confident that you're spending your money wisely. Whether you're in debt, saving for a new house, or just trying to be better with your money, I'll teach you a simple budgeting habit that will radically transform your relationship with money and help you put your finances on autopilot.

Best of all, you'll learn everything you need to know to build your own budget in just 30 minutes.
