controlling our money
« on: February 06, 2018, 06:02:15 am »
How many of us control our money rather than let our money control us?  Husband has been playing Ramsey talk show over u-tube since the first of January this year and I now find myself thinking about money more than ever.

   The only problem with money is:
  "There is never enough money to do
    all the things we need to do".

I only think about money when I am determined to pay something off or get a head a little.

I have gotten better at controlling my money but still have some work to do. Impulse spending can be a problem.

My version of controlling my money doesn't necessarily include being able to save which I wish I could - however I pay my bills first and foremost and then buy food and other things I need.  I buy gas cards at our grocery store when they give you $10 off a $50 card.  On social security I do what I can.   :moneymouth:

I hear you.  It is tough on a fixed income to be  to get ahead, plus my husband has been on partial disability for 2 years so lots of surprise expenditures with that.  Be great when hs is able to get back to work.

I think I'm pretty good at it, but could do better. Wish I had enough to not worry about it at all. :peace:
