Financial planning, finance management, cash inflow, cash outflow, , market equilibrium
Abstract
Financial planning and management are interrelated topics. They act as emergency kits to prepare for monetary value in economic policy. By earning income, cash inflows, and outflows for future savings and expenditures. The cycle continues until there is a twist in the financial story. However, money did not grow on these trees. They have to make one. It can be life-saving for the best investment and insurance in life. Monetary value changes depending on the financial statements and policies, that go on and on to achieve market equilibrium. Even the most devastating event destroys precious opportunities to save lives. What counts is life.
