Not For Public Consumption

Financial Vocabulary for People Who Hate Numbers


Listen Later

Hate numbers? You are not alone. But figuring out how much money you’ll need is a necessary evil. Words help tell part of your story. The other part – the numbers – need to support that story. That means figuring out how much money you’ll need to launch, of course, but it also means figuring out what you’ll need to keep the doors open until you become profitable.

Today I'll make all the lingo a lot less scary, a lot less complicated and a lot more understandable. By the time you’re done reading this, I guarantee you won’t hyperventilate when you see the words “cost of goods sold.” Sound good?

In this episode you will learn:

  1. Why you still to understand the basics (even if you're hiring professionals).
  2. Common financial terms, all explained in plain English -- I promise!
  3. How to stop being scared of the numbers :-)
