SIMPLE SAVING TIPS AT HOME

 Saving a portion of what you hardly earn is as essential as having decent meals on the table.  Even millionaires do manage their financial resources competently and do not just spend a penny for nothing.  To the working class like myself, it is more relevant to save as much as possible especially at these times when everything goes up but the salary.  No one is exempt from the frustrating effect of global inflation and recession. 

Yet indeed, to save money is awfully difficult. You must shake up lifestyle and think about expenses according to priorities, learn to distinguish ‘what is needed’  from ‘what is wanted’. In the process, it could be so stressful and frustrating. But could there be any better option? It would be more grieving to find yourself deeply broke whilst the bills continue to pile up. It is a matter of ‘saving for the rainy days’.

SAVING FOR THE RAINY DAYS

by Earlie Doriman
Yet for many times, our resolutions have been put into nothingness. Whilst we try to work doubly hard to meet both ends at home, we start to ponder we might not have done enough to keep some in our piggy bank. Without any piece of hypocrisy, money matters a lot to keep us going everyday. Diverse lifestyle expends money differently, and our very own way of life could consume every single penny we desperately shield in our wallet. The impulse to save for the rainy days just died away as fast as we spent our earnings. So bad indeed… and so disappointing too.




The society where we belong and the bitter influence of media have so much to do with the way we spend and the way we define happy and content life. Most people buy things because the society dictates that it is what makes one a part of it and because of that, people tend to want things rather than get what they basically need. What if you don’t have enough to buy the new Wii, or Xbox, or the biggest TV screen or the Plasma or the latest iPhone in the market? Do you readily swipe your credit card till you drop.? Tsk Tsk Tsk. It is not my business anyway, but you see, savings could absolutely kick off from cutting our impulsive-compulsive attitude. Credit cards leave you nightmares.
