Most of us were not educated well on personal finance. Perhaps it happened to you that you were never taught to save and, now as an adult, it is difficult for you to save even a small amount each month.
Or maybe it was a person who suffered a lot of deprivations during his childhood and now he spends every colon that comes to him buying irrelevant things because he could never have what he wanted as a child.
It may be that you have the practice of saving, but you do not allow yourself to spend and you are afraid of investing, so you only accumulate money that does not translate into good profits or beautiful experiences.
Perhaps you feel that no matter how much you earn, you never have enough money; or that he never manages to earn enough money, he is afraid to charge what his work is really worth and, worst of all, he lives in constant debt.
Faced with such a scenario, It is important to start educating yourself in personal finance. And one of the ways to do it is through books. Therefore, today we want to recommend three books to learn about personal finance:
- Happy Money by Ken Honda. We have mentioned this before on the blog because it is one of our favorites. He teaches us to value money in its proper dimension, as an object of transaction that is a means, not an end by itself.
This book talks about money as an energy that we can attract into our lives, but it also teaches us that even the richest people in the world sometimes do not consider themselves rich because wealth, being a millionaire or not, is a subjective matter.
This work by Ken Honda was born after having interviewed thousands of millionaires in Japan and other parts of the world, and he shares with us part of the wisdom he extracted from those meetings with people who are generally admired and respected for having created great companies and a lot of money.
- Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert T. Kiyosaki, It brings together the no-nonsense explanation of various terms around money (expenses, income, savings, taxes, cash flow), and discusses the differences in thinking and vision of people who are rich and those who are not.
In fact, this book is the life of Robert Kiyosaki at the side of his blood father, his poor father, and the father of his best friend, his rich father. He tells us about the relationship that each of these men had with money.
This book is revolutionary because it allows us to enter the minds of millionaires and begin to break with limiting beliefs that have affected us all our lives.
- Unbreakable by Tony Robbins and Peter Mallouk. It is a guide on how to transform personal finances and accelerate the path towards financial freedom.
We hope these books help you build a healthier money management scheme, and when you decide to apply their teachings by opening a savings account, the creation of an emergency fund and the recasting of your debts, contact us and ready. We will be happy to advise you at any of our 50 branches throughout the country.
