  Why is financial freedom important for women?   For every women the individual freedom becomes meaningless without financial freedom.

  Meet - Sbusiso Leope aka DJ Sbu. In 2015, He went on stage at the Metro FM Awards and advertised his Mofaya Drink, and as a result he was fired from Metro FM and because the SABC also owned the TV side, he was also fired from the SABC 1 TV show, "Friends Like These". "No1 Knoxman" as he is known from his township, says he had to go back to the hustle and sell his energy drink at the streets.

 I am so excited for the New Month and all the good vibes it will bring for you and I.  As we get into the spirit of the new month one of the critical things that's always important is to look back on the previous month and learn lessons from the experiences we had. Today I'm going to be sharing a few of those lessons with you and I hope you can reply this email with some of yours as well. 1. Less is more - last month of January, I learnt a bit more about building the business of my dreams and the realisation that we don't have to go for every single thing or do one million things to be able to achieve goals. A few carefully selected actions would take us in the direction of our dreams.. and they have. 2. Hack happiness - The hormones that keep us happy are simple to trigger. Happiness related  hormones can be triggered by things as simple as ticking something off your todo list, playing with a baby, taking a walk outside, hugging your spouse, hanging out with your friend...

I have been an expat for 3 years. Where you live now, is largely irrelevant to your investments. Sure, some things make a difference. For example, if you live in UK as an expat, there are tax implications. But in general, there are loads of expat focused accounts, which are designed to be flexible, that are portable, and move with you when you move to another location. Often all you need to do is update your credit/debit card payment or just send from a new bank account. What matters is what you invest in, as well. The best way to invest, according to a lot of academic research is: Investing 80% in long-term assets and 20% in something “sexier”. Long-term beats market timing Low-cost diversified index funds beat over diversification Markets beat property long-term Never think “now isn’t the right time to invest”. There will always be elections, unexpected events and various crisis. I was recently invited to make a media comment on this and mentioned how many people will make ...
