Cash is NOT King

by Dan Andrews, Well-Rounded Success

How to Set Better Money Goals
by Dan Andrews, Well-Rounded Success
S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym for:

- R – Relevant: your goal excites you and is worthwhile
- T – Time-Oriented: you have a deadline for this goal

Focus on What You Can Control
by Eric Roberge, Beyond Your Hammock
Episode #003 of Beyond Finances takes a dive into the importance of focus — and specifically, the ability to focus on what you can control. There’s a lot of noise and distraction out there, which means finding financial success requires you to zero in on what really matters. And once you find that, you then have to go a step further and sort through what’s in your power to do something about, and what you may need to let go of.
