How to Read a Balance Sheet - A Simple Guide for Non-Finance Founders with Balance Sheet Generator

Financial reports can feel intimidating, especially for founders without a finance background. But understanding the basics can dramatically improve decision-making and confidence. In this practical guide, Rebecca Nankya Ssemugabi breaks down how to read a balance sheet in simple, everyday language, supported by a hands-on balance sheet generator you can try yourself. M ost founders don’t struggle with running a business. They struggle with understanding the numbers behind it. And few reports feel more intimidating than the balance sheet. But here’s the truth: a balance sheet is simply a snapshot of what your business owns, what it owes, and what’s actually yours at a specific point in time. The Balance Sheet in One Line Every balance sheet is built on one simple equation: Assets = Liabilities + Equity Assets are what the business owns Liabilities are what the business owes Equity is what belongs to the owner(s) If this equation balances, the balance sheet makes sense.

Hey everyone, here is what have been on my mind lately.

👉I've been thinking a lot lately about the people suffering in war-torn countries like Gaza, Ukraine, Sudan, Myanmar, and Congo. Winter is coming, and they need our help more than ever. Even the smallest donation can make a big difference. So, please consider donating to a charity that's actively working in these regions.

👉Remember those Palestinian scarves that were so popular a few years ago? I used to have two—a black and white one, and a red and black one. The red one has a funny story: I wore it to my cousin's wedding in 2010, and he loved it so much he borrowed it. Well, he never gave it back! I didn't mind, though, since he moved back to England.

👉I'm currently reading Steve Jobs' biography. It’s fascinating to learn about his ability to bend reality and convince people to do the impossible. I can definitely relate to his rebellious spirit. It's also interesting to see how Bill Gates factors into the story. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend it. It's a bit long, but it's worth the time.

👉Speaking of investments, have you heard about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies? Bitcoin is about to hit a major milestone of hitting the $100,000 mark, and other cryptocurrencies are also on the rise. If you're interested in investing, now might be a good time to consider it.

👉Oh, and don't forget about Pi Network! It's still in its early stages, but it has the potential to be a valuable cryptocurrency. You can claim your free Pi coins by joining the network with my invitation code: Danish14301.

That's it for now. Bye.
