spending plan for every dollar you make.
Create A Job
There’s an old saying that says, “The best cure for unemployment is a job”. And with the invention of the internet, there are a ton of money-making ways you can create including selling old, used goods to offer your services on sites like Fiverr.com and craigslist. Bring in extra money any way you know how and just use that as extra savings NOT as extra spending money.
Stop Worrying About What Other People Think
A recent Forbes.com article showed that out of the 400 richest Americans, nearly 80% of them started out buying used cars (at least 3 years old and more) and clothes (roughly 2 1/2 weeks worth of clothing and then would wear it again) because they wanted to be wealthy and didn’t care what other people think. It’s time to live like no one else now so you can really live like no one else later.
Pay Off Government Debts Quickly
Listen, it’s the government’s job to get their money and any IRS agent will tell you, sooner or later, they will get the money you owe them. So, if you owe the city, town or government, work with them to see how you can gradually pay that down, starting with the LOWEST amount first.
Going for the lowest amount each month not only makes you feel like you’re accomplishing something, but also gives you a solid payment history.
We know it can be rough at times, but the first part of any financial health plan is the belief that you can do it. Believing in your ability to create new wealth for you and your family is key. It can be hard, but it’s definitely worth it.
