Debt & Credit Management - Cradle to Grave

I present on over 30 topics focusing on Debt & Credit from Raising Financially Fit Kids to Budgeting 101, Couples & Money, Retiring Without Debt, The Truth About Credit, 75 Ways to Save on Household Expenses, Food & Finance, Death, Taxes & Beyond and many others. Please contact me for a full listing and descriptions.

Budgeting 101

1+1 = 2. Most of the time. Sometimes it equals -3. Come to our webinar, Budgeting 101 and learn that math is the easy part of budgeting. The tough part is understanding your relationship with money (and acknowledging that you even have a relationship with money!). Like all relationships, some parts of it need work. Learn to identify those aspects of your money relationship that need improvement, how to make those improvements and to better understand your patterns of behaviour around money.
