The Balancing Act
Objective: Help people overcome the financial stress of living beyond their means through finding contentment and financial freedom.
The Balancing Act provides a road map to financial freedom by educating the reader on ways to understand why they spend what they do. Then it shows how to modify spending habits, build a balance between needs and income, and find contentment.
