GUEST - John Manyike, Head of Financial Education at Old Mutual



Spending money is always a great source of joy. Whether you are a man or woman, you earn money to fulfill the needs of the people that are connected to you; your family, kids, and parents.

Spending money on yourself gives you satisfaction and offers you mental relief and relaxation. There are many reasons why you should spend money on yourself.
