A financial coach is asking Ghanaians to take advantage of the COVID-19 lockdown to learn about money management.
Mr. Daniel Martey in an interview with rawgist.com’s Bernard Buachi expressed shock that barely two weeks into lockdown, many including church leaders and businessmen are already complaining of lack of money.
He said people with adequate financial knowledge would not fall flat because of a few weeks’ lockdown but rather see opportunity in any situation.
“The truth of the matter is, many people lack financial education, which teaches, how to make, how to hold, how to invest and multiply their earned money” he explained.
He appealed to Ghanaians to take investments seriously and recommended investing in at least four different investment funds including an emergency one.
“In times of financial crisis, such as the current lock down, cleanup of financial institutions, funerals, or job losses, etc. one can fall on the emergency fund till business and work come to normalcy” he opined and stressed the need for Ghanaians to utilize the free time presented by the lock down to learn about money in order to create wealth after the COVID-19 pandemic.
