About Us
Independent business site dedicated to providing comprehensive information on personal finance, small business management and key updates.
Personal Finance
Understanding how to manage one’s finances is an important life skill for everyone. We write about earning, investing, planning, and saving your hard-earned money. We hope this blog will also improve our readers’ financial literacy and responsibilities, which could lead to more financial freedom, particularly in our focus country, The Gambia.
Financial education is a key life skill that is still not taught in many traditional education systems. When is the right time to learn about money and finance? After we learn from our financial mistakes. No, it should not be that hard.
We believe personal finance is a life skill that should be taught as early as primary school. This way, many young people will appreciate the value of work, money, life planning, and giving back to society.
Small Business
Every year, thousands of people start their own businesses. While many succeed, many fail as well. The common causes of startup failure are either a lack of good preparation or poor management of business resources. We share success tips and stories with young entrepreneurs and small business managers.
Why do some countries produce more entrepreneurs than others? We believe the issue starts with the education system. Many traditional education systems focus on teaching people how to work for others. There are very few practical entrepreneurial courses or knowledge-sharing platforms in developing countries. Then, how can graduates turn their final-year project work into a business?
