Is it possible to predict your financial future? Most business owners spend more time focused on the weather forecast than the status and forecast of their business. The truth is that the weather changes very quickly and is uncontrollable, but our business forecast is much more in our control. What if you could see into the future of your business?

And does it promote autonomy or dependence?
