Everyone has bills to pay and you may not think you can really save any money but with these helpful tips from Harris Bank you will be able to save some money for yourself!! Here's what I learned...
1- Add your name to the list of people to pay
- Get into the habit of adding your name to the list of bills that need to be paid and pay yourself first. This will help in thinking that there is no money left over for yourself.
- Yes we all wanna be "ballin" buuuuutttt that's not very realistic...so its better to start off small. Start putting aside a small amount like $10-$30 a month if you can do that much with every pay period..well gone head witcha bad self!!!
- They suggest having money automatically transferred into your saving account...if that's not possible then make sure you hit the bank and transfer that money or do it on-line through on-line banking.
- Have spending money set aside for things like groceries, date night, dinner with the girls. If you don't spend it all what you have left over put that into your savings account. They suggest something a little different so make sure to check out the website to get the full explanation (once again this is my take on saving). Every little bit put away starts to add up.
- No explanation really needed here...start saving as soon as possible!!!
