This is not your ordinary book about financial planning.
And that’s because Betty-Anne is not your ordinary
financial planner.
Aft er all, before she was a financial planner she was
a teacher and a social worker. Oh, and she also worked
in a prison. And you thought financial planners were
boring!
I first met Betty-Anne at Kingston Writersfest. She
was attending the humour-writing workshop I was giving
and came up afterward to tell me that she wanted to
write a personal finance book that was interesting, relevant,
and, above all, fun! She asked me what I thought,
and I told her it sounded like a great idea—little did I
know that I would be helping her write that very book!
Th at book, Making Your Dreams a Reality: A Stress-
Free Guide to Take the Mystery out of Financial Planning,
but Not the Magic!, is coming out soon, by the way—a
sequel, if you will, to the book you have in your hands
right now.
But back to the book at hand.
You are in for a treat. Why? Because soon you will
be rid of the uneasy feeling you get when you think
about your personal finances.
I know the feeling, and it comes from fear—from
bad habits formed in childhood, from the endless
stream of incomprehensible financial acronyms that
bombard you, from that all-pervasive message you get
from newspapers, finance shows, and the media, telling
you that if you don’t get your finances in order—right
now!—you’ll spend your golden years in a cardboard
box under a bridge fighting rats for scraps of garbage.
It’s no wonder so many people put off financial
planning. After all, what do we do when we’re scared?
Scurry into a corner and hide or spend money!
Hide no more! Come out and look around. See,
things aren’t so bad after all!
This book doesn’t tell you what to do. Instead it asks
what you would like to do. It is an invitation, not an order.
Breathe a little, take your time, and discover how to
make money work in your life and how to make your
dreams a reality, one quote at a time.
