Essential Knowledge wants everyone to know the basics of budgeting!

 

More than one million Americans will file for personal bankruptcy this year. At least 70% of working adults live paycheck-to-paycheck. The average credit card debt is more than $10,000. And financial stress impacts more and more Americans each day.

 

It is proven that basic budgeting reduces financial stress because it creates a plan for spending, saving, and getting out of debt. Yet no more than 40 percent of working adults have a budget. At Essential Knowledge, we'd like everyone to discover how budgeting makes a positive difference and helps families tackle financial problems. That's why for a limited time only, we're letting you read our Basic Budgeting e-book for free!

 

Our Basic Budgeting e-book provides information and includes worksheets and takes you through a simple, easy-to-follow budgeting process. Give it a try today! We're confident that you'll discover how much better you feel when you follow a budgeting plan.

Money. Everyone's interested in it, and yet nearly everyone struggles with it, regardless of age or income. The reason: No matter how much we learn in school, financial fundamentals usually get left out. The results come with a high price tag for all of us.

 

In fact, nearly 70% of all Americans say they're living paycheck to paycheck, and in recent years the national savings average has been a negative number -- the typical individual or family actually spends more money than they make each year!

 

People can do better. And Essential Knowledge can help. We're an independent financial education company dedicated exclusively to helping people of all kinds who need to know more about how to handle money (in other words, just about everyone).
