This is my signed copy of Managing on Nil Every Year by Barbara Anderson

Barbara Anderson’s Book Launch event was one of the highlights of my summer last year. Why? Because I had the opportunity to meet an author/Financial Adviser, named Barbara Anderson. She has a fantastic business and financial acumen and a zest for life. And above all, a great believer in network marketing and helping people make the most of their money.

I’ve been to many networking meetings and I enjoy interacting with so many people and sharing my passions and interests. I’ve learnt so much from these experiences it is unbelievable. But back in August last year, I ventured out into what I believed was a financial clean-up session at a BIP Event. It was Barbara Anderson’s Book Launch. “Managing on Nil Every Year – How to make sure every Pound you Spend Makes Sense”.

Didn’t quite know what to expect at this market networking event, but I became increasingly inspired by the speech made by this lovely author and their publisher. I thought to myself, I just had to see this event right to the end. It was pretty much a Financial Advise Seminar as well. My aim was to learn a bit more on how to make my money work. Networking is one of the building blocks for businesses and so, the good thing about this event was that it was quite brief but packed with valuable information to share and a good deal of networking took place on this day too.

Met her publisher named Alex. He was so funny and easy – going, he could make a Dolphin laugh! There were lots of like – minded people at this event and that’s what did it for me. It was so difficult to leave at the end. Some attendees were just looking for business ideas or information about life changing ideas. The book launch was quite informative. My head was so full of information that I even felt I needed to be put all this information into various compartments. Wow what can I say!

The event taught me a lot about how to manage my finances in the 21st century because we live in an evolving world whereby nothing stays the same, so, as you can imagine, financial products change all the time due to the performance of the financial market. I learnt how to make use of Voucher Codes and how it’s possible to save money when shopping online.

Glad I got my hands on a signed copy of the book at the end of the book launch. I’m always referring back to it especially when I need a few money managing tips.

About the Author: Bola

About me and Journeywithbola.com I’m Bola, a London-based travel writer and blogger with over 20 years of writing experience and a background in business and finance, administration, journalism, teaching, and support work across the education and homelessness sectors. I help women over 60 discover the world again, in confidence, friendship and freedom. Since launching my blog in 2013, I’ve been on a mission to inspire and empower women—especially senior women who may feel isolated—to step outside their comfort zones and rediscover the joy of exploration. My work focuses on uncovering hidden historical gems in London and beyond, bringing their stories to life in ways that are engaging, accessible, and meaningful. I believe travel isn’t just about going far—it’s about seeing familiar places with fresh eyes. Over the years, I’ve met many people who have barely explored London despite living here, often held back by routine. That’s where I come in. Through my blog and curated group trips, I help women experience the city (and the world) like curious travellers, not just residents. My trips are designed to be more than just journeys—they’re shared experiences that build confidence, connection, and lasting memories. Whether we’re walking through historic streets or venturing further afield, the goal is always the same: to inspire you to move, explore, and embrace new possibilities. Because I truly believe—we are not meant to stay still. If you’re able to move, in any way, then keep moving. My passion for travel began in childhood, inspired by watching my parents explore the world. That early influence shaped my belief in travel as a powerful tool for well-being, growth, and transformation. The Vision Of Journey With Bola Create a community of mid-luxury travellers.
