Course 1 of 3 — Foundations Curriculum

University-grade education in finance.

Taught by a practitioner who teaches it for a living.

Reading Financial Statements for Decision-Makers. Eight modules and a capstone. Self-paced. 12 months of full access.

  • — Read any 10-K in 20 minutes — the four sections that matter, the rest is filler.
  • — Distinguish accounting profit from real cash flow — and the 90-day gap that bankrupts profitable companies.
  • — Value a business from its statements alone — no analyst reports, no press releases.
  • — Spot the three statement patterns that fool retail investors: revenue acceleration without margin support, capex starved by intangible growth, and the buyback-masked insider exit.

Try the lens — from Module 4

Profit Is an Opinion. Cash Is a Fact.

Move the sliders. Watch a profitable company run out of money — or prove its profit is real. This is the single most useful habit in the course: never read net income without reading operating cash flow next to it.

Net income $240,000 · Operating cash flow −$20,000. Profitable on paper, burning cash in reality — the exact pattern that bankrupts growing companies. Module 4 teaches you to catch it in one statement.

A teaching demonstration, simplified on purpose — the course works with the full statement. Education, not financial advice.
