Money is the solution, not the problem
Let's show more people how
For humanity in general, the last 12 months have been challenging, to say the least.
Good With Money is rising to the challenge. "Where there is ruin, there is hope for treasure", said Rumi, the 13th century poet.
Money is a solution - a tool in our toolboxes. Whether it's switching to a 100% renewable energy deal or investing in a fund with sustainability at heart, the most powerful thing we have - our cash - can get the best, most profitable deal, while looking after the planet and the people on it. #nocompromises.
More and more people seem to agree with us.
The website has achieved a huge amount in the last 14 months since launch and done it with £0 budget, 0 full time staff, no office, four small children at our heels and other part-time jobs.
We’re bursting at the seams with gratitude (...it could be sausages) to everyone for every single ad, partnership, sponsorship, affiliate deal, RT, like, share or comment.
There's so much more to come and we hope you're in for 2017.
Have a very Merry Christmas, whatever you are doing and whoever it is with, and a peaceful and positive beginning to 2017.
Big love,
The Good Money Girls.
