Investing and Financial Freedom

There has been a lot of posts lately about individuals and families struggling to be financially independent. I think it would be a great idea if women in this sisterhood could offer their advice on how to become financially independent, investing and general advice on how to make your money work for you regardless of your income.

I think this topic is not touched on enough in school and many women (and men) do not have any idea how to invest, where to start, what they need to begin investing and what to invest in (property, shares, business etc)

I think there is a general assumption that you need a high income to have financial freedom/independence and would love to encourage lower income families/individuals that this is not necessarily the case.

Please share your tips, ideas and advice and maybe we will help someone begin their road to a better financial position :)
