    Bought this a few years ago, when I was starting out as a freelancer. Watching it again in 2021 - Still super relevant and I'm learning all over again. This class is helping me feel confident about my money.

    I watched this course in 2018 while deeply in debt. Back (2021) to rewatch this course debt-free with funds to invest. I can't say enough about this course. It motivated me to get my $$$ habits sorted out and now I'm a little less stressed :)

    I'm not sure why I haven't watched this sooner other than the fact that I try not to notice how bad of financial shape my husband and I are in for our age. I will tell you, after watching this course, I feel 100% more confident and in control of our financial future. Galia covers EVERYTHING we needed to know more about but were afraid to ask, or didn't know we needed to know. I can't recommend this course enough. WATCH IT, then REWATCH it! For any adult, no matter your age. ps When I first began listening, I thought Galia's presenting style was a little shaky, and I quickly realized it was nerves because once she got rolling, she was so fluid and informative, keeping us all engaged with enough compassion so we didn't feel 'stupid' but also with enough info to motivate and empower.

    Galia is AWESOME! I love how down-to-earth she is (hence the name of her business!). I learned so much, and am going into a new year with a totally different outlook on my money. Now I have a plan, goals and much less anxiety about the whole process! Thank you, Galia!

    Love her way to explain this, that are so complicated for some of us. Thanks Galia for sharing your wisdom.

  • Danielle A. Jun 2, 2016

    This class was an eye-opener for me. I love the way Galia makes you feel comfortable thinking about as well as talking about your financial picture. I also appreciated her many examples and actionable steps for planning.

  • G. Mar 18, 2016

    I love how approachable and welcoming and easy to understand this course has make financial terms and situation sounds. I love Galia and she makes I really feel calm and comfortable learning from her. Great!

  • Bryan L. May 29, 2015

    I continue to talk about this course as a reference for people in personal finance. Galia inspired me. Since this class I have turned my financial situation around. In 1 year I have cut out $12k in debt, added over $15K to my retirement, and have swung my savings toward the positive by $7000. Watch this course and apply it!

    The most informative course I have ever took. Galia made the class so interesting I watched her class for hours without wanting to take a break. I highly recommend her course, it was well worth the money spent.
