This issue aims to change it all!

All that you look up to then is your retirement policy and with a perpetual saying and thinking “I cannot afford it.” It is the right combination of time and money that helps one to be rich.

Mad About Money is financial management with a difference. It aims to make financial freedom a reality through interactive media and personal and group connect. It is about developing a mindset apart from the general mindset – A mindset which has made the rich rich and left the poor to remain  poor. 

But if you believe that you can become richer than all the people you know, if you believe that you can own all the expensive things that you see, if you believe that you can buy multiple houses, or lots of jewellery or something else then you definitely  can.

This is our motto.
