Live In Person Beginner Course
Prescott, Brockville and Surrounding Area Edition
We exit academia and enter the workforce ready to establish ourselves as physiotherapists. We have the entry-level knowledge and the soft skills to land us our first job. We get our first paycheck and decide to treat ourselves to a fancy meal, a nice outfit, and a memorable night out. Then we realize we have student and car loans to pay, rent to come up with, a house to save for, and taxes to account for, and we feel the social pressure to invest but have no clue where to start.
This was my story, and I’ve devised a plan for how to live the life I want without exclusively trading my time for money
