Carlos Boozer was known as an outstanding offensive player. He was also known as a very weak defensive player.
During his career he played for the Cavs, Jazz and Lakers before retiring last year.
His coach often benched him during important times so he wouldn't allow opposing teams to score.
He usually missed the best part of games, the end of game.
With money, as in basketball, defense matters.
Offense:
Generally incomes rise with experience and education.
Thus you can expect to earn more as you acquire industry-specific knowledge and apply it to your profession.
Defense:
Outstanding financial stewards plug leaks, they play defense with intensity.
When spouses don't play defense, they often miss out on family time by virtue of divorce or overwork.
They know that financial death can happen from a thousand cuts or from ignorance or from deception.
Tight defense involves tracking expenses, numbering expenses, competing (with yourself) to reduce and prevent expenses and eliminating current expenses.
Don't be left out of the most important part of your family's life because of poor defense.
