A lot of people are operating on defunct money myths that are misleading at best and destructive at worst. Myths that appear to make sense at first glance but have often passed their expiry date.
This is where today’s guest Vince Scully comes in to help you clear the money myths.
Vince is a veteran Financial Adviser, Author and Financial Wellness Advocate and the founder of Life Sherpa – an online platform that helps you make money and investing accessible and affordable.
He helps you to master the art of living the life you want with the money you have.
Many myths sound credible but are dangerous to your wealth and happiness.
Some of these myths include:
- “Money doesn’t buy happiness”
- “Rent money is dead money”
- “Two incomes are better than one”
- “You need a lot of money to start investing”
- And the biggest myth of all … “Cutting out your morning latte will make you rich.”
This has prompted Vince to author his great book ‘The Latte fallacy and Other Money Myths.’
It addresses the commonly held, but incorrect view, that giving up your morning coffee can make you rich.
The premise of this approach is that a lot of little expenses over time add up to very large sums of money. So all you have to do is cut out your morning latte and hey presto you’re wealthy – right? Wrong!
This great book debunks all of these misleading myths and gives you the tools that will actually make a real difference in your life.
Over the many years Vince has worked in finance, he’s discovered that successfully navigating the world of money is not about having the best plan or choosing the best investment or even earning the most money. Neither is it about scrimping and saving.
He has realised that the less time we spend planning how to get the most from our money, the more time we spend worrying about it.
What makes the difference is truly understanding what you want and spending your money in a way that gets you closer to achieving it.
