Midlife Finances - Getting Real and the Basics Right

It's episode70.  

In this episode, Dave shares a take on managing weight by not stressing the systems, and is joined by the Frugal Spender, Brian Mitchell. Brian, a former police officer shares his own midlife story and how he came to be a leading voice in getting real and practical with financial savvy. He shares some powerful tips and ideas on getting out of debt and shaping up your finances to follow your heart and your goals.

After going through many years living payday to payday and getting himself into credit card debt, Brian knew that something needed to change. He realised that his relationship with money was poor, which in turn was the root cause of his money troubles. Brian spent 2 years learning everything he could about personal finance whilst getting out of debt, getting better at managing money and eventually investing.

Brian knows first-hand how to get out of a financial rut, and it starts with changing your relationship with money. Only then can you take the practical steps to become debt free and build wealth.
