Stop Going Broke Trying to Impress Everybody

One of the easiest ways of losing out on the opportunity to make money - is to lose money unnecessarily. A lot of us want the "good life" every single day - but we want to continue amassing huge amounts. What we don't realise is how often the money we are making can do a lot for us if only we value it and don't use it excessively.

Ask yourself the next time you want a particular thing - can you do without it? Do you need it urgently? If you feel it can wait, or perhaps be done without altogether, keep your money, invest it, do more with it - and it will stay with you longer, bringing much more satisfaction in the long run!

What an awesome video - make sure to watch it!

Make a Success of Your Business - and Your Life: Take What You Need (Video Clip Included)

Those in the "know" know that making plenty of money is what life is about. In fact, even when we have plenty - there's just always so much more plenty to get! We chase after things we don't even know that we want. We want things, we don't even know we will ever use. Even when we have - we want more. It's an insatiable desire embedded in us.

But those who really do know - know that life is about so much more. It's why - so often, one sees that it's those who don't have who take just what they need, because they realise there may be others in need to. Some of the greatest givers - are those who have nothing themselves. What a crazy world!

The video below shows a reality of life we all need to expose ourselves to. Making a success of money, of life, of business - is so much more than just making another fortune of wealth. In fact, what makes us truly rich - is when we appreciate what we have - always! The wealthy person is truly the one who is satisfied with his lot. He sees the needs of others, even though he himself may actually lack. But he never sees himself as lacking. He has for today. He is appreciative. He wants the other to succeed too. He wants to give him too. He wants to leave something for the other.

What valuable lessons.

Managing Credit Card Spending - and Getting Out of Debt

Susan and Richard Rameriz learned the lesson of today's post. Credit card debt! In fact - any debt. Let's be honest, nobody wants to get into debt - and if we're going to live healthily and successfully, we need to do everything to live within our means. The video below is great for us all to see. It tells a story of a couple living comfortably with everything working out - as long as everything was working out. A "simple" thing like losing a job which provides one's most regular income can spell disaster. If one doesn't have a regular income coming through that one knows about, choosing what one buys and the lifestyle one has, must be done with great care and concern.

Today's banks and other financial services offer all sorts of "candy" to help one make the decision of taking the extra money from them, all in the hope of living life as we want to - with all it's frills. Let us never forget however - that this is *their* business. They are there to make money from us. They are not there to give us money. They give money so that they can get much more back in return. Rest assured, the sweet smile from the pretty lady or good looking gentleman sitting behind the well polished expensive table can quickly change to one of great anger when the bank realise you're not going to be able to make the payments due!

Are you serious about generating wealth - or are you serious about generating candies? Necessities - are always necessities. We can never do without the things we need. We must do everything we can to be able to afford those necessities. When, however, we realise that some things can be done without - especially when we are struggling financially, it is then that we must say "no" to any cash offers coming our way - all in the name of "help."

The video is great and it says a lot. The only thing which is difficult to follow - is how the couple actually managed to earn the income necessary to get out of their debt. Let's not forget - staying out of debt is probably an important rule in life. Living within our means is also crucial. Not going ahead with purchases we know we cannot afford (and are by no means necessities in life,) is vital. Still, we have to work out ways of generating income - and that is by far the most important rule when it comes to making a financial success of one's life. I look forward to finding further videos and other ideas which can help us all to find new ways of increasing income.

Meanwhile... whatever happens - keep in mind that the income being earned today, may very well not be the same amount one earns in the months ahead. More is always better - but if it's less, are we going to be able to prepare ourselves for our daily lifestyle then?

Enjoy the video! There really is a lot to learn. Feel free to share positive comments on the post - perhaps even a story of your own - for other readers to benefit from.
