About this title

Synopsis

Financial Competency takes the approach that we cannot manage our financial resources if we don't have resources to manage. The book deals with the issues of employment & being a "valued employee" and how to bring value to your job. The book explores the dynamics of basic wealth management, as well as the management of our tax refunds and how to use that refund in the most effective manner. Financial Competency helps the reader decide his role in the workplace: Am I an Employee or an Entrepreneur? Do I understand what my Employer is looking for in terms of his goals? In this very important "financial how to book", Mr. Reed addresses the most fundamental problem that keeps most of us from having financial success: we must be taught about our finances in a way that it resonates and stays with us so we can apply it practically. Financial Competency teaches financial concepts and much more. What the book does most is help us to get on the right path financially to Create The Life We Want To Live!!

CHAPTER 1

UNIT 1: Employee Literacy

A WISE WORD....

"After all is said and done; after we talk, and commensurate about what our lives really mean and what is essential to everyday living we will always come to the undeniable reality that we deal with and exist in life in a financial way. We buy and consume. Whatever our vocation or contribution to the world we have to eat, we have to have a roof over our head, and for most of us we have to pay bills. No money, no honey. It is that simple. Having financial knowledge is necessary for day-day survival. We cannot chance life without financial knowledge. To know about our money is to know more about the life we live because our access to life as we know it is tied to finance in some way, shape, form or fashion." (Reed, 2014)
