The key to any financial plan is having surplus income. Without surplus income, it makes it impossible to allocate your money and invest for your financial goals and it is hence imperative to maximise this surplus. Maximising this surplus can be done from driving up your income and can also be done by understanding and minimising your expenses. This is the second step to building your financial plan, and one step closer to reaching financial freedom.
