STAY OUT OF DEBT: IT IS POSSIBLE TO BE DEBT-FREE"“The man who never has money enough to pay his debts has too much of something else.” ~ James Lendall Basford ******************************************************* In this Issue of Let-Us-Relate! newsletter:-) 1. BE FREE FROM THE CHAINS OF BAD DEBT! 2. I CHALLENGE YOU 3. QUOTES THAT WILL INSPIRE YOU TO BE DEBT-FREE ******************************************************** 1. BE FREE FROM THE CHAINS OF BAD DEBT! ******************************************************** Whenever I hear of a story of someone who is heavily indebted, I always wonder what makes some people get so easily into debt, while others succeed in avoiding it. What causes one person's excitement over a huge 'buying power' that is given to them while the other person manages to see a potential debt trap? I really struggle to understand how a newly employed person - someone who had a zero or so balance last month - fails to save at least half of their new salary for at least a couple of months! I tell you, if you can enjoy saving, you have yourself a lasting chance at 'financial freedom'. Many people equate being frugal with not living to the fullest, but it is not so. Being frugal is one of the only ways I know that will enable most people to live their lives to the fullest - unless of course you are very rich. The only way anyone will ever understand this is if they practice it themselves. So whatever you do, stay debt-free. Being debt-free is being truly free. For those who are already in debt, you need to get out before debt consumes your life.
2. OH, YOU ARE SO CHALLENGED HERE! ******************************************************** Friend, open those account statements and go through them thorougly. Look at how much you are paying; how long you have been paying and how much interest you are paying. Scrutinize your finances. Cease fearing your financial situation; confront it - this is the only way to reverse it. As Dr. Phil McGraw famously said: "You cannot change what you do not acknowledge." Knowledge is power, take control. If you are in debt or if you have no savings and you get a promotion/salary increase, I challenge you to use no more than a quarter of the increase for at least a couple of months, while you use the remainder to settle existing debts or to boost your savings. Do not let money control you...and you will enjoy a very healthy and long-lasting relationship with your money.
