Thanksgiving is a time of the year that many people show compassion for their

fellow-man.

It got me to thinking about start giving.

Start Giving

Start giving your budget a chance.

Each month your dollars should have

a purpose.

I use YNAB (you need a budget)

for myself and my clients.

If you click on the link above their is

a $6 toward the purchase of the

budget software.

Start giving your savings account

some money.

We have to start with each paycheck.

This month start with $25 per

paycheck.

If you don't touch the money you will be surprised how fast it will add up.

Start giving your credit cards a break.

Leave the credit cards at home.

You can avoid racking up anymore debt if you don't have them available when

you are out and about.

If you are going to use them be able to pay off the balance when the bill comes.

One of the things that many Americans face is credit card debt.

Your lifestyle shouldn't be financed by your credit cards.

Start giving your debt the boot in your life.

Debt shouldn't be a permanent  place in your life.

Write down all that you owe.

Start with the small things to pay off first.

With each milestone you will get to have more money to payoff the next debt.

Being debt free should be your goal.

Start giving your change to a life happens fund.

I don't carry much cash these days.

I find that if I have it I will spend it on small things.

But when I do I take my change and put it in a piggy bank.

Every six (6) months I put that money into my life happens account.

There are always emergencies that come about.

When you have a life happens (emergency fund) you won't blow your budget

when an emergency arises.

Start giving your body healthy choices with what you put in to it.

Simply walking can give your body a much-needed boost.

Drinking plenty of water can help your hair, skin and nails.

What are you going to start giving???
