By: Jacquette M. Timmons, Finance Coach and Investment ExpertRegardless of where you go in the world, money is the universal measurement for being "rich." And it seems like everyone wants to be rich...the not so rich want to be rich and the rich want to be richer.
Some believe that moving along the continuum of riches means that you have to be a celebrity, have a trust fund or work in a high-earning profession; it doesn't.
What being rich requires is that you play the game of money well. Yup, working with money is a game! Your parents probably never told you that, huh?
Winning at the game of money means not confusing your ability to handle money with having a handle on it. It means having the proper skills and mindset and showing up everyday prepared to do the right things consistently.
This gURL Guide to Being Rich is all about showing you how to win (and win big) at the game of money and how to recover from the occasional setbacks you will undoubtedly experience.
It outlines the rules of "play." These rules are a blend of the necessary skills you need to practice and the ways you need to think about money. View these as life-long principles to follow since, collectively, they are what separate the not so rich from the rich, and the rich from the richer.
