370 | Financial Harmony – THIS is what it looks like – Chat with Amber and Dan

Folks, if you’re looking for a textbook couple as an inspiration on what Financial Harmony looks like…

Amber & Dan is your go-to couple!

Although they grew up with slightly different money management styles at home, Amber & Dan worked together and made sure that they’re on the same page when it comes to finance.

That mindset sets them up way into the future.

And, get this….

They’ve got a fool-proofed saving hack that built up money for a deposit AND a renovation!!

 

Of course, being on the same page is only part of the equation… there are heaps more when it comes to setting yourself up for retirement.

For example….

Finding out the exact thing to do with your surplus and consolidating those TEN bank accounts. (Yup, you read that right. T.E.N 😮)

 

So sit back and relax while you tune in to this feel-good story of how this couple is well on their way to building a passive income for life.
