Save
windfall income
|
A
very simple theory. You managed to get along without
the unexpected bonus, tax refund, overtime pay
or gift, so why not keep on that way and save
the extra money?

|
|
Try
frugality
|
Cutting
back on eating out, entertainment or
pleasure drives can save money quickly, even
though it might cause some sacrifices might
even change your lifestyle.
|
|
| |
|
|
Develop
a habit
of saving
|
Even
if you can only set aside a very little every
month, discipline yourself to do so. More than
half
the battle is physically setting the money aside.
|
|
| |
|
|
Pay
yourself first
|
Saving
should be a high priority, just like paying your
bills. $AVING is a form of PAYING YOURSELF
FIRST.
|
|
| |
|
|
Set
goal$
|
Keep
a list of what you are saving for. As you reach
your savings goals, check them off, and create
new ones.
|
|
| |
|
|
Don't
stop $aving
|
There
are always emergencies and unforeseen events that
come about. Even if you feel you "have enough",
in reality you probably don't.

ASK
questions!!

When
you're choosing a bank or credit union to open
your savings account or CD, be a good consumer.
