A person with financial knowledge knows what a balance sheet and an income statement are and what they do.
They understand what a hedge is when related to the stock market.
They know what a call and a put is.
They understand about cap rates in real estate.
They know what the prime rate is and how it is used.
All of these things and many more besides are part of having financial knowledge.
The more information about the things that can make you more money the more likely you are to have, make and control that money.
Learn all you can about everything related to your money.
Learn about taxes so you can save that money you earn.
No one can learn everything about finance and the markets that use these terms but the more you know the more control over your future you will have.
Many people develop teams where each person becomes an expert in some field(s) of business.
A lawyer and a CPA on your team would take care of most legal and accounting deficiencies you may have.
A good real estate broker may handle the property field.
An experienced team will help you make great strides towards your goal of financial independence.
Remember however, that you make the decisions about your money and what you do with it.
Your team members may be paid consul or actual partners in your business of business, but ultimately it's your decisions that will determine your outcome.
Some people become frozen in fear of making mistakes.
Making mistakes is the way we learn.
Don't let the fear control you.
Educate yourself and the fear will lessen so that you can make good solid decisions.
When you make your decision go ahead and act upon it.
Don't let the fear throw you in a state of analysis paralysis.
Study, decide and then act.
You will soon see if your decision was the right one.
If it wasn't act quickly and reverse the situation.
As your decisions prove to be correct more and more often your self confidence will grow and the fear of making mistakes will eventually disappear because you will have learned how to make the correct decisions and how to fix the wrong ones.
