For most Australians, debt is a reality and a necessary evil. Taking on debt is often the only way many of us can afford to make large purchases in our lives. The key with debt, however, is to manage it wisely and to not let it overtake your budget.
Mastercard. Visa. American Express. Diners Club. They may all sound different, but they are alike in so many ways. Credit cards are useful financial tools, if used correctly. Unfortunately, many credit card users have overspent their way into serious credit card debt.
Australia, along with America, Britain and New Zealand, hold the dubious title of having the lowest rate of household saving in all of the world’s advanced countries.
The mortgage industry has perhaps felt the most pain and experienced the largest fallout from the global economic crisis, and Australia is certainly no exception.
Daniel Kertcher established Platinum Pursuits in 2001 as a vehicle in which to share his knowledge of strategies to use the financial markets to grow wealth, with the aim of achieving financial freedom by making your money work for you.
His argument is that until you become financially literate and develop a method where you're able to get a reasonable return on your capital (i.e. making your money work for you), you will instead be forever working hard for your money.
Daniel Kertcher personally achieved financial freedom at a relatively young age, through his knowledge of property and then financial markets investing. Through using Options and leveraged instruments such as CFDs, Daniel developed a system to trade the markets where he could benefit from the leverage when the trade went in the direction he predicted, and hedged his positions so that there was a limited downside risk.
Some people in the past have criticised Daniel's message of striving for financial freedom in a high-risk environment such as trading derivatives. However, it is not Daniel's or Platinum Pursuits' goal to encourage everyone to trade the financial markets. Every kind of investing contains an element of risk, so this level of education is aimed specifically for those who want an understanding of professional trading techniques and strategies that they hope to apply to their own capital, and it is absolutely true that many people are not yet in a position to invest a chunk of their savings.
To be truly financially literate, it can pay to explore all the options available when you are in a position to try to get ahead in life. Daniel currently presents free introductory seminars nationally on selected dates from February to November.
