This is the last episode of season 1 of the Teacher Money Show. We’ll come back to it in the Fall when school starts up again. To wrap up this season I’m sharing someone of my favorite episodes and the key take aways I get from those episodes. Here are some of my thoughts.
Key Ideas
It is vital to take control of your finances by increasing your income (be creative about it)
Being prepared for retirement means you have a plan, don’t just assume the pension is enough or that you’ll be able to figure it out later.
Anything is possible, even on just a teacher’s salary, if you put your mind to it you can find the way.
