In the fifth and final episode, financial educator and author Vanessa Stoykov details the way ACTION contributes to how financially comfortable we are - both now and later in life.  Vanessa is joined by CEO Bryce Doherty to dive deep into the lessons learned from fictional characters pulled from Vanessa’s finance novel ‘The Breakfast Club for 40-somethings.’  What you will learn in this episode: By nature, the future is never certain so we can’t wait to have all the answers to begin. A future with financial success at the expense of relationships is no success at all.   How making the future we want only comes when we take action.  The direction and insight a financial planner can offer at any income level. Quotes ‘It’s about giving yourself permission to change.’  ‘People can become so focused and the breadth of what they're trying to achieve can become more and more narrow.’  ‘And what a shame that people sound busy - not I'm happy or I'm going really well.’   About Vanessa Stoykov:  Vanessa is an award-winning financial commentator, author and CEO.  She is on a mission to help Australians get real about money.
