1. Set Clear Financial Goals
The foundation of financial success is knowing what you want to achieve. Whether it’s saving for a house, clearing debt, or growing your investments, set specific, measurable, and realistic goals.

2. STOP BLOWING IT ALL AWAY - Create and STICK to a Budget
A budget is your financial roadmap. Track your income and expenses to identify areas where you can cut back and save more. Apps like Money Dashboard or Yolt can simplify this process.

3. Pay Yourself First
Automate your savings by setting aside a percentage of your income as soon as you’re paid. This ensures your financial priorities come first, not last.

4. Reduce Debt
Eliminating high-interest debts, such as credit cards, frees up more money for savings and investments. Consider the snowball or avalanche method to tackle debt effectively.

5. Invest Wisely
2025 is the year to grow your money. Explore opportunities in stocks, property, or ISAs. A diversified investment portfolio can help you build long-term wealth.

6. Boost Your Income
Start a side hustle, upskill, or negotiate a raise at work to increase.

7. Reduce Your Taxes

Legally cut the amount of tax you pay on your savings, investment income and even inheritance with proper planning and advice.

What Will 2022 Hold For You And How Can You Make Your Dreams Come True?

How will you prosper in 2022?

What does 2022 have in store for you?

Some of you may not know, many will say that it depends on the economy, the government, Joe Biden or Boris Johnson.

The answer has less to do with the economy and more to do with your own economy, or what I call your U’conomy. Ask yourself these questions:

·        What’s your plan?

·        Have you written down your goals, dreams and plans?

·        What action steps are you taking to make them happen?

·        Where do you want to be in 1, 5 or 10 years?

The twenty first year of the twenty first century has been a year of firsts.

First time so much money has been created out of thin air.

First time a new medicine has been mandated on this scale.

First time a country’s citizens have been threatened with fines or imprisonment for not taking an injection.

First time governments and organisations like the UN and the WHO have acted in unison to control millions of people arounds the world.

First time people and economies have been locked down for a variant of a virus proved by South African scientists to be no worse than a bad cold or does of flu.

In the UK a few days before Christmas, the country was ‘spared’ a lockdown and yet another damaging closure of the hospitality industry. At the same time, Scotland and Wales are imposing post-Christmas restrictions, ruining New Year’s Eve trade, businesses in England are left in limbo unable to plan for the busy week ahead.

Despite the UK being in the biggest recession in 300 years and running up largest national debt ever, property and stock markets have gone up! They have been artificially pumped by quantitative easing - creating money out of thin air – and historically low interest rates providing trillions of dollars of cheap money.

When will the party end?

My estimate is that 2022 will be the year when stock markets crash, and the chickens of massive debt come home to roost.

The trigger could be when the Fed finally raises interest rates to curb the fastest inflation rise in almost 40 years. The FT reports that Fed officials expect three interest rate rises next year.  

Inflation is rising around the world fuelled by ‘money printing’ by central banks on a scale never seen in modern history. The official US inflation is now 6.8%, the highest for over a decade, but half the rate suggested by Shadow Stats which claims real costs are rising by 15%.

Energy costs are set to double for millions of people which will increase the price of all goods and services, as costs increase for businesses and suppliers.

Property and share prices have continued to boom in 2021 leaving many investors thinking that prices will carry on going up indefinitely, something which has never happened before, especially when the fundamentals suggest that there should have been a crash years ago.

The Halifax recently reported that property price growth will slow in 2022. I have never heard a lender or leading estate agent predict that property prices will fall!

This year also saw millions of migrants and refugees on the move looking for a better life. From Bangladesh to South America and Europe migrants have walked or been trafficked across borders to claim asylum.

We have also seen climate disasters, such as the recent typhoon which has destroyed 90% of homes in the southern islands of the Philippines. While we in the west worry and fret over a shortage of turkey, millions of people around the world are starving.

Money also migrated so-called safe property havens in the UK, Canada, US and Australia.

Wealthy people have sought second and third passports and residency in countries offering citizenship for cash or property investment.
