Honouring My Friend

Dear Scott,

I recently lost a dear friend due to a sudden cardiac arrest at the age of just 29. She was financially independent and had learnt to be smart with her money.She put me onto your book, and since reading it I have been financially better off and have started saving for a 20% house deposit with my partner. I wanted to say thanks to you, and also I wanted to say I am so proud of my friend. Keep on educating, Scott!

Rachel

Hi Rachel,

I am sorry for your loss.

But what a great gift your friend left you with: a more confident financial life.

When I went to Brazil recently to look at financial education in poor areas, they spoke about it as being a multiplier:

You learn it, then you share it, and it quickly has a cascading effect across the entire community.

So, honour your friend by passing on the lessons you’ve learnt to someone else you love.

That’s a legacy I’m sure she would have been proud of.

Scott
