{With every new year comes a goal to be accountable for; people make resolutions to be better, live a better lifestyle, change a bad habit, have a better relationship, start a new project and so many other things. But one area people forget is to be accountable financially.}<\/p>\n
People keep making terrible money mistakes year after year, and if you must make certain progress in life, you must be accountable financially.<\/p>\n
{{These are some of the ways you can do that }} <\/p>\n
1. Stop having a rough estimate of where your money is going. Always be accountable to how you spend your money, and what every dime is spent on.<\/p>\n
2. Those little expenses that you feel don\u2019t matter, actually matter. They take tons of your money, but you don\u2019t get to notice because they are so little.<\/p>\n
3. Don\u2019t spend your income without planning. Have a planned financial life.<\/p>\n
4. Stop borrowing, and learn to live within your means.<\/p>\n
5. Don\u2019t spend to impress people, and don\u2019t make the mistake of going into debt for trivial things like festivities and celebrations.<\/p>\n
6. Stop procrastinating when it comes to savings. Make savings a lifestyle. Don\u2019t choose to save whatever is left at the end of the month, else you wouldn\u2019t have anything to save. Plan on saving a certain percentage from the beginning of the month.<\/p>\n
7. Stop living from paycheck to paycheck. Try to have a multiple stream of income.<\/p>\n
Try not to make these mistakes this year, and be more accountable to how you use your resources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
