Back to basics in fashion as investors flock to learn about budgeting

Australians are going online more and more to learn about how to take charge of their own finances, says Fiona Parker, General Manager of Wealth Know How (www.wealth-knowhow.com.au), Australia’s fastest growing independent online financial education website.

“We have seen an increased interest in our easy to digest video clips covering budgeting this financial year,” she said.

“The average Australian faces complex pressures on their finances and so are interested in going back to the basics and looking at some quick, easy to understand ways on how to manage their finances.”

“Investors will click on video content if it offers real educational value so we are not surprised that the budgeting videos have proved so popular.

“Budgeting lies at the foundation of every financial plan,” said co-Founder, George Lucas. “It can be a real challenge to prepare a budget unless you take the right steps from the start.”

“At a time when so many of us are time-poor and have a variety of different expenses , these video clips offer some basic principles that can make the each individual’s budgeting process clear and secure.

“Our videos provide some simple tips and steps in setting out a budget that can work for you.”

“Learning about budgeting online is a great entry point for first time investors who are looking to be slowly introduced to the principles of investing.”

The Wealth Know How website has a range of quick, easy-to-understand financial education videos, covering areas such as term deposits, self- managed superannuation funds (SMSFs), shares, and property investment.

The video clips are free to consumers online. This content is also regularly used by professional financial advisers as a digital marketing tool to help educate and engage their clients.
