Advice on Good Money Management
Some people believe that having a large yearly salary is the best way to become rich, or eve
retire comfortably. However, millions of people with high incomes around the world are up to
eyeballs in debt! How can this be? Well, here are a few points that explain this and which c
help you get (or stay) on the right track financially:
1. It’s not what you make, it’s what you spend: It’s great to earn lots of money, but if
spend it all on life’s little pleasures then you might end up with nothing left. A simple w
budget for meals, entertainment and other regular expenses can help prevent a lot o

targets. Promise yourself you will put aside a certain percentage of your income each

shopper who probably has a lot of gadgets and clothes you don’t really need. Leave th
cards at home, or better yet cancel them all. If you really feel it’s necessary, keep the o
the lowest interest rate for emergency purposes only. (A new cellphone doesn’t coun emergency!)

thoughts on cooking usually come to me, so I often write or plan my programmes then. Whe
