Are you financially fit? 07.08.08
Have you ever found yourself wondering where your money that you were working so hard for was going? To tell you the truth, you’re not the only one. Everyone at some point in their life has, or will, think about this. Even the rich think about it, but they just may not end up thinking about it until their a senior citizen thinking about paying their taxes.
If you’ve noticed there have been plenty of celebrities in the news lately who are losing their houses because they didn’t think that far in advance, or the people they were paying to do the thinking, weren’t thinking that well. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter how much you plan you’re going to find yourself thinking about where your money has been going, and the answer is often bills, or random shopping sprees that you should cut down on. But how do you know if you can afford a shopping spree or not, or that extra pack of beer for a party that you’d enjoy, but not sure if you can afford? The way to figure that out is to plan.
I know when I got out of high school I was on my own. I didn’t have anyone’s help and had to pay for school and bills, the whole nine yards, right after getting out. Imagine that one. What I had to do is prioritize what was worth going without, and what I needed to move on in life. Remember when you were young, and your parents said that’s a want not a need? Or how about on The Jungle Book when Baloo sung, “The Bare Necessities.” That’s what I’m talking about, and that’s what I had to do.
