About this listen
You don't need to buy stocks or found a start-up in order to build up enough wealth to sustain you through a crisis like COVID-19.
You may not even need a promotion. All you need to do is develop great spending habits.
With jobs disappearing overnight and an economic downturn lying in wait, there has never been a better time for us to start taking saving seriously.
But the current pandemic has made us think about more than just our financial survival, right? The global shutdown brought out hitherto wasteful ways into sharp focus. Nobody is cracking jokes about sustainable, responsible living in 2020.
Which is why now is the moment for champion saver (professional Scrooge, if you will) R.A. Dalkey to share an essential truth: Sensible saving isn't just good for your bank balance, it’s good for the planet too.
And, as he already showed in Monte Carlo for Vagabonds, a calculated approach to spending is neither dull nor boring! In fact, it makes marvelous things possible...

Many parents dread talking to their kids about money in fear of opening pandora’s box. But firstly, that box is probably already open; you will be surprised at what kids soak up from their friends, what they see on TV and on social media, and what they hear you talking about at home. And secondly, if it isn’t already, it likely will be soon, and this will be out of your control. It may be better if we actually open this box from time to time anyway. Not talking to your kids about money can actually make them think that money is something to fear.
