Write Your Personal Financial Autobiography!
Accounting is boring number crunching, endlessly punching away at numbers on a calculator or on Microsoft Excel, right?
WRONG!
Accounting may use numbers, but those numbers tell important stories. Isn’t it about time that your personal finance story was shared? Even with just yourself.
What Is Accounting?
Accounting is the ultimate form of storytelling.
Have you ever wondered what is going on with your finances?
· How much money is actually coming in?
· Where does that money go when it finally reaches your bank account?
When done right, accounting gives you unbiased truth about your financial lifestyle. The world’s largest and most successful companies use it to communicate their story with investors around the globe, so why are you not using it to tell the story of your personal finances?
