About the Book

Money isn’t just about money. It’s about security. It’s about choices - to live our lives the way we want. It’s about everything money enables you to do and just as importantly what it allows you not to do.    

The Joy of Money starts with the personal foundations of money - what matters most to us, our values, goals and priorities. It then covers the practical elements at the intersection of money and life - creating a system for managing money, career, family, relationships, investment, superannuation, insurance, wills and estate planning and retirement planning.    

This comprehensive money guide is designed to bring money to life - to put the joy back into money. You can read it cover to cover or dip in and out of the more  pertinent chapters. We can’t guarantee you instant financial freedom - we can give you financial knowledge and step-by-step guides to set you well on your way.
