One Small Step to Financial Literacy Hopefully Will be A Great Leap Towards My Financial Freedom

I have an important appointment today with a licensed financial advisor, who fortunately came from the same high school. I am hoping this could be the Apollo-11 moment of my life.

After being amused by the passionate discussion about the cons of Multi-Level Marketing (MLM) Schemes in Facebook, I've realized one important aspect of my life that I've given less attention to - Financial.

I know of the importance of savings and monitoring your expenses. I have some savings (but that is for getting married and starting a family of my own) and I have monitored my expenses daily since 2008.

But after that, I have no idea on how I can better prepare myself for my future and that of my future family.

As if by good coincidence, financial literacy has been a buzz word in our alumni org's website.

I took that to mean that the universe is telling me that the time is now for me to start my financial literacy and work towards financial freedom.

I am looking forward to my meeting later. Hopefully, I do not get nosebleed from discussions on investments, insurance and whatnots.
