5 Ways To Stop Overspending
Like many, I once believed the best way to stop overspending was to make more money. I just didn’t have enough for all the things I needed. Once I made more, everything would be fine. But it never was! As my income increased, so did my spending. Now I realized it’s not about how much money we make, but what we do with that money. This means we have the power to stop overspending, regardless of our income level!

What do you think of when you hear the word save? Does it stress you out? Is it something you wish you could do, but really haven't?

Conquering Money Fears
Facing Your Fears
Fact or fiction?
Do we really deal with our fear and anxiety about money, or just push it out of our minds, hoping it will go away? That never works! So, what does? Mike Pumphrey, Founder of EmpathicFinance.com, suggests focusing on what’s really happening, instead of the outcomes we fear. Take the time to truly understand your situation, so you can deal with it effectively.
Preparing for the Next Financial Crisis
What works and what doesn't
Another financial crisis is coming; it’s just a matter of time. Use the good times to prepare for the not-so-good. Mike Pumphrey says “ride the booms, but be prepared for the busts!” One of the biggest financial crises people fear is losing a job. The best way to overcome that fear is to plan for it! Build an emergency fund that allows you to eat and keep a roof over your head, while you’re looking for a new job! The emergency fund buys time and peace of mind.

Fighting For Financial Freedom
Fighting For Financial Freedom
It’s easier than you think
Spending your days, the way you want, is much more satisfying than being stuck behind a desk. To walk away from a job that no longer aligns with your values, because you are no longer a slave to debt or employer is empowering. Who wouldn’t want total control of their financial life, or to send their children out into the world, free of a burdensome paycheck to paycheck life?
No one! In this episode, you will learn how fighting for financial freedom is easy to start and leads to you being a commander in your quest to live your ultimate life.
Freedom Can Be Yours
Command your troops
Freedom is a choice. Even if you’re in debt, living paycheck to paycheck, you have the power to command your money and take back your freedom.

The Excitement of Budgeting
Money is stressful!
Don’t worry the big stuff
Dealing with money is stressful, until you recognize the excitement of budgeting. Budgeting your money relieves stress, because you don’t worry about having the money to pay a bill – it’s already there. It helps you plan for future big-ticket items like a new car or vacation. If money problems are constantly stressing you out, budgeting is the answer!
Finding An Answer
Be the commander
Creating and following a budget puts you in command of your money, because you make the rules, instead of money dictating your life! A budget keeps track of money and everything it needs to do for you. “Can I afford it?” becomes a question you answer instantly! Doing the work to create and maintain that budget may seem boring at first. But the payoff is exciting, especially when it comes to planning for things like a dream vacation. Budgeting is preparing for your best life!

Achieving A Better Life Experience
The Path To Achieving A Better Life Experience
A 529 ABLE Plan leads to less stress
Until 2014, achieving a better life experience for the disabled was difficult and resulted in a lot of heartache for them and those caring for them.
Too many assets meant reduced or lost SSI or SSDI benefits, therefore financial struggles were almost a given.
According to Author Patricia Roberts, help is available through a 529 ABLE Plan. A visit to nast.org is a great start to gain more information.
Independence Is Attainable
Tax-free money leads to more control
The freedom of a 529 ABLE plan is indisputable, because it provides tax free earnings on the money you save and the ability to spend that money, tax free, for a wide range of expenses.
Independence is no longer a pipe dream, because these plans give more control and allow for more discretion in their quest to achieve a better life experience.

Budgeting For School Choice
Get Active In Your Kids’ Education

A lot of stress is placed on parent’s shoulders when it comes to their kids’ education; considering health risks, controversial material, dedicated teachers – can leave people wondering what is best for their young ones.
Kids must go to school, but what’s the best option? Send them to the public school in your district, homeschool, pay for a private, charter or other alternative education program? With so many choices, budgeting for school choice can be harrowing, but necessary to assure the best outcome.

Keep Your Eyes Open
Keep Your Eyes Open
What you don’t know can cost you!
A first paycheck garners a lot of excitement, until the reality of taxes sets in, which usually leads to shock. But fear not, because there are benefits and perks that many young employees don’t know to ask about and/or aren’t explained. It’s important to remember that salaries and benefits can be negotiated, in many cases, so it’s important to consider more than just base pay.
Consider What You Want From A Job
Interview the company, while they’re interviewing you
Employment is a mutually beneficial relationship. Yes, you want the job, or you wouldn’t be sitting in an interview, but they need you, or you wouldn’t be sitting in an interview, so let them know how you can benefit them. It’s important to keep your eyes open to potential by being sure to ask about all the ways they can benefit you.

What does your perfect life look like? A big house? Fancy cars? Investing? Philanthropy? More time with family and friends? Goals vary from person to person, but if there’s no focus on what you really want, how can you possibly know what you need? Budgeting plays a major role in your planning because it helps you pay for your daily life, while preparing for your future life.
Look Into The Future
Budgets show where your money goes
A budget breaks down your money and helps you plan for its use. Unless you’re born into wealth, it’s hard to live the life you want without a budget, because money flies out the window, making it hard to get a handle on spending and saving habits.

Life On A Budget
Life on a budget is good! Whether it’s a financial or food budget, it’s empowering, freeing, calming and exciting! It changes the way you think and dream – and the decisions you make in response to those thoughts and dreams. “CentsAble” Bobbi compares budgeting to dieting and shares ideas for using both to reach your goals.
If you’re restricting your spending today, it’s for a specific spending purpose tomorrow or somewhere in the future. A budget is simply a breakdown of your money and a plan for how you want to spend it.
Life on a budget doesn’t mean you have less money, it just means you’re choosing to only spend a certain amount for one thing, so you have enough to spend on another – as opposed to just spending because there’s still money in your bank account. That’s mindless spending, and it causes a lot of stress down the line, when you realize there are still other things you need to pay for, which you didn’t think about in the moment, and there’s n…
