With her mission to Mars scrapped, ‘The Wealthy Martian’, Karen Cumming has a new mission: financial literacy.

As an educator and former journalist, Karen has written a book that is very dear to her heart. ‘The Wealthy Martian: An Out-of-this-World Guide to Financial Literacy for Parents, Teens and Other Earthlings’ aims to teach three critical life skills:

1. The basics of money management (also known as The Wealthy Martian Seven)

2. Understanding money as energy – the spirituality around money – and learning how to create a healthy relationship with it

3. How to master a specific investment strategy known as a DRIP or dividend reinvestment plan. It’s a party to which the middle class have never been invited, yet it has the power to transform our lives and the lives of our families for the better immediately.

Karen joined us this morning to discuss her book which will be available next week.
