Currently I am reading a book called Picture your Prosperity. I wasn't absolutely excited to listen to it
when I started but, now I really love it. It has so many tips and tools about financial well-being.
Your financial well being is just as important as your health. I honestly believe it goes hand in hand. Do I think money can buy you love and happiness? No. But what I do know is I saw my parents fight over money as a teenager. Which triggered events that led to their divorce... So I think financial well-being is important.
We have talked about setting goals... weight goals.. personal goals. We also need financial goals. What do you want that will cost money? What costs very little- and you need it now? What costs a lot - but you don't need it as soon?
Years ago I set up a travel savings account. I put money in there for the trips I want to take. Do you have similar accounts set up? I also set up a gift savings account last year.
Think of it this way... a long term goal for a parent might be to send their kid to college. There are lots of savings account options for parents doing this.
What about a vacation home on the lake or at the beach? Doesn't feel possible? I believe it you want it bad enough you can figure it out! Of course it may take the help of a financial adviser.
We live one life! Why not dream of those places and create a financial way to go there!
So right now I am working at paying down my debt. But yesterday I saw some incredible cookware that I would love to have. The basic set costs as much as my first car!!!!! But I can add it to my list. I do think I need a new stove first!!!!!
Thanks for reading
