INVESTOR EDUCATION

 
Hi Bill,
This is simply in appreciation of your efforts to create and send to your clients (current and potential) wonderful articles that broaden our horizons in relation to financial matters. With this last one, I can simple confirm my strong belief that you are an extraordinary talent. Your metaphor of baby’s first steps used for the concept of developing an ability for feeling comfortable with restrictions to one’s financial freedom is a perfect one.
Please, keep on producing and sending your thoughts of wisdom.
Regards
Mirjana S

Bill Zheng assembles an excellent range of speakers who are not amateurs but leaders in their field.  So the information is what you need and in terms that is understandable.  Their professionals provide excellent service, and Investors Direct is the conduit to these pro's.  Great bang for buck - consistently the best seminars I attend and the one of the select few companies I listen to with 2 ears!!

Dear Bill Zheng
Thank you for the wisdom of life. It is far more valuable than money as Shakespeare wrote. I have enjoyed your wisdom, both financial and esoteric in your seminars, and your advice in your newsletters on finance and investing.
Thank you for writing your newsletters, I really appreciate reading them.
Happy Days

Hi Bill,
Just wanted to say many thanks for the life lessons.
I can see that it would have taken many years to accumulate the profound wisdom in these sentiments, and how true they all are.
I enjoy your newsletters and this one certainly is a gem.
Many thanks once again for sharing this with me Bill.
Best Regards

Bill Zheng has solid credibility around the information he presents at his seminars. He forecast the GFC at a seminar I attended in Perth some time before the effects and fallout of the sub-prime crisis really were felt globally.

LANGUAGE OF MONEY

Actually I can honestly say that I have gained a lot out of the Language of Money program.  I found the content of the seminar very useful and it certainly challenged my existing thoughts and practices in relation to money and how I perceive it.
The most important adjustment for me that came from attending the seminar and the subsequent use of the Family Budget spreadsheet is that I am more conscious of my spending and less inclined to waste money on frivolous items.
I’ve already made some significant changes to my monthly budget and have managed to increase savings over the past few months.  Prior to attending the course, I certainly wasn’t in a position to even think about increasing my property portfolio.  But now that my thinking on such matters has shifted, I’m already looking in to what my next steps will be.

The program is certainly an empowering exercise. I feel that I have gained more respect about the way I manage my money.  The monthly exercise (aka ritual) also helps me realise that I don't have to worry about the bills.  In fact, I look forward to receiving bills in the mail because I know that I have taken the action of allocating funds into my reserve payment account.
  
The revised template you provided me also allows for a more accurate view of the funds needed to support living and investment expenses.
It's great to know that Van is starting to use the system too. With your help and support, I'm sure she'll experience the powerful benefits like I have in no time.

The Language of Money program has, for the first time in our lives, allowed us to get into a regular routine of budgeting. With the support we received for the first few months, it was possible to finally make the monthly discipline a manageable task. We now know what we have to spend on which priorities, including clothes, holidays and other luxuries. Thank you to the entire Investor's Direct team.

The planning of our money prompted a review of all our expenses, including new quotes for insurances, cars and phones. 
The template provides a simple way to review your total financial picture with accurate up to date data…gives you more options for money decisions not planned for. 
The money template prompted the thinking of what accounts do we need, what key expenses do we have, and how & where are they allocated? What actions did we need to take to achieve the budget planning structure that we wanted?
Using this template saves time and money. I have learnt by setting aside a couple of hours every month and updating actual, and budgeting ahead keeps the plan alive and real and achievable.
We feel that we are getting SORTED!

Just a quick email to let you know that in the second full month of using the budgeting tool we have achieved a reasonable surplus after recording a deficit in the first month.  This result could only be achieved however by the persistent tutoring that Sarah provided over many months of phone calls.  I always found Sarah to be very courteous, patient, and clear with her explanations.  Likewise, she has always been prompt with calling at the scheduled time.  I am very confident that I can carry on the good work that Sarah helped me start, and I've no doubt that she has helped and will help many more of your clients.

Sarah has been supporting our Language of Money program for the last couple of months. Over this period Sarah has provided a very professional service to our family in assisting us with our financial planning and cashflow management.
Sarah has shown a very professional approach in delivering the cashflow system that Investors Direct has developed.
Most of the discussion and delivery of the program has been after hours over the phone as we live in South Australia. Sarah has allocated times to phone and has very punctual in this process (which has been greatly valued by our family).
We have no hesitation in recommending Sarah to deliver the Language of Money Program.

Thanks so much for taking us through the Language of Money Program. The program has totally changed our financial situation for the better. We can't believe we are actually putting so much money aside into savings now  - and our lifestyle hasn't changed at all.
Thanks especially for all the support; it was mind boggling to begin with. Having someone to ask questions and keep us on track was awesome, especially someone so patient with all the blank silences and confused questions! Thanks!

Well I have everything up and running now and am working on a budget for weekly spending.  It's good to have an emergency account.  I call on it at times.  I was thinking of my daughters school fees for next year and I forgot I now have an education fund account for her to use.  It was very reassuring.  
 
I look at my budget every week.  I need to work more but need to find the time to do it.  I really like the fact that I have put the periodical payments away every week so this way I know what I am really left with to spend on the kids and family weekly.  When the money is finished i now say to the kids put it on the list for next week, mum has spent the budget and they are pretty good about it.
 
I have managed to buy a few Xmas presents from living expenses which will mean that I will not have a debt at Christmas - just buy slowly as I go.
Hopefully I want to start paying off principal off the loan but I will get to that next year.

It's going well and has certainly changed the way we manage our money. I've taken ownership of the management, so I now know exactly where we're at and can make conscious decisions about our spending. The hard part was setting it up and getting started, but now it's in place, it's not as big a task to manage as I initially thought. Thanks for your help getting started, much appreciated. 

Best regards,

Paul S
