THREE financial experts speaking at the Monash University public lecture last Thursday were on the same wavelength about caring for hardearned cash.
While they spoke of the many ways of making good investments and budgeting, they each had a few words of warning.
These were to be careful, to learn about the field in which you are investing, and to leave a will.
The speakers said they were not solicitors whose responsibility and expertise was to deal with wills, but accountants were left to sort out the mess of people who did not make a will.
