Too many toys?

In order to live financially free, discipline is essential to control “toy” purchases until you can afford them. We consider “toys” to be any vehicle you own. That would be your cars, boats, snowmobiles, motorcycles, etc. The total value of ALL vehicles should be less than 40% of your annual household gross income. So a household with a $50,000 gross income should only have $20,000 worth of vehicles at the most. By keeping these depreciating assets at a reasonable level you will have more to invest in appreciating assets, bringing you closer to the financial freedom goal!

Please comment and share all your favorite toys!

If dislike your career, start making a plan to find one you can be positively passionate about.  Our work can generate strong emotions and the amount of time you spend each week working is substantial.  It is very possible your negative emotions will carry over to your relationships and job performance.   It will be very difficult to be a top income earner if you are not in the proper mindset.  Also, you owe it to yourself and those around you to be happy most of the time.  If you don’t love it, make a plan to leave it.

What career are you passionate about?  Please comment.

Shhh Stock Photo by photostock from freedigitalphotos.netYour local library can be a remarkable resource for all kinds of savings for your family.  The obvious is all the books they have, but did you know that if you can’t find what you need at the library you can get an “interlibrary loan” so you don’t have to go out and buy the book.  There are also on-line books and audios that you can borrow right from home without going into the library.  The library also has movies to borrow which can eliminate any DVD or Blue Ray rental fees.  Do you like to go to museums?  Many libraries have free passes to borrow, which can be a big saver!  Enjoy some FREE time with your family this weekend, visit your local library!
