Simplifying finance.... • 16h

Two companies can report the same profit. Yet one constantly struggles with cash, while the other quietly builds a buffer. This used to confuse me until I started paying attention to how cash actually moves. Some businesses collect money quickly and pay suppliers later. Cash comes in before it goes out, making growth easier to manage. Others show strong profits but wait months to receive payments, while expenses are immediate. On paper, they look healthy. In reality, cash feels tight. That’s when it clicked for me. Profit shows performance. Cash flow shows resilience. Once you start tracking cash instead of just earnings, financial statements tell a much more honest story.
