Better Money Management Thinking
The first step to making better choices when it comes to how we spend our money or time is living and acting consciously and examining daily money and work habits.
Simple living is largely a matter of making better choices in life: about how we spend, consume, create community and spend our free time.
It is NOT to just consume less. It is to consume smarter OR differently.
We must NOT just go blindly along when it comes to consumption.
Tracking your spending takes some work but if you take careful notes, you will always be able to see one or two areas where youre leaking cash.
Emergency Cash Advance
By the end of your first month you should have some extra cash put aside to have a nice start on an emergency fund.
Shop eBay for things like razors, lotions, computer software, baby formula, diapers, etc. You must NEVER allow yourself the luxury of panic. It works! Increase the amount of money you earn through a second job, promotion, new job, investments, etc. When it comes your weekend to work, do a switch.
