1. Beware of FREE Money
Credit cards are NOT free money. Use them as
you would cash or don’t use them at all.

2. Simplify Budgeting
It’s simple… Know what you have coming in
and going out each month. Do you know this?
If so, you’re ahead of 95%.

3. Know Your Worth
Assets minus liabilities equal net worth… And
your net worth does NOT equal your selfworth.
Always remember that.

4. Don’t Be Afraid!
Personal finance is not just about math and
you don’t have to be good at math to learn it.
Simplify, learn the basics, and just get started.

5. The First Step is Knowledge
You can’t fix what you don’t know! Learning
financial literacy is one piece of education that
will be well worth the time to learn.

6. The Thing to Teach
Financial literacy is a life lesson that should be
passed down to your children. Learn it, share
it, and your entire family will be better off.

7. Inflation Hurts
You have to invest to outpace inflation and get
growth on your money… Otherwise you’re
effectively losing money as time goes by.

8. Never Lie
Don’t lie about money or spending with your
partner. Full financial disclosure is a key to a
healthy relationship.

9. Plan On It!
Planning for your financial future is way
more important than planning for vacations,
parties, etc. Are you spending the proper
time on your future?

10. Just Start!
Unsure where to start? Begin with the Money
Queen’s Guide. After you have the basic
knowledge there are multitudes of free
resources or you could hire a CFP
Professional when your situation gets more
complex.
