By: Ann Marosy
One of the greatest mistakes you can make in managing money is not knowing where your money is going. About 90% of people who come to see me do not know exactly how they spend their money.

Lake Argyle in Western Australia is an immense body of water stretching out over nearly 1,000 square kilometres. Yet, before 1972 this lake did not even exist. How is it that we now have a huge lake where 40 years ago there was only dry ground? Did the East Kimberly region suddenly experience incredible amounts of rainfall? No, it wasn’t the result of any natural occurrence. This vast reservoir exists because we built a large earthen dam across the Ord River. Now, where the land was once too dry and arid to farm, there are more than 150 square kilometres of farmland. Building a dam resulted in increased wealth and vitality to this area of the East Kimberly region. (more…)
