However, when most people receive their paycheck, bills come first and spending money comes second -; rarely leaving any for savings. But these actions, which we may consider as being responsible, may be a faster track to the poorhouse than to riches.

Let me start off by saying that none of these ideas will guarantee you enough money to pay off your house. They are small strategies that will start you thinking in a new direction. It's a way of taking care of the small things that translate into a larger picture. Rethinking how you use the resources available to you can save time in the form of hours you would have to work to earn the money to buy things, and resources, by re-using the items you have on hand and keeping them out of landfills Jennifer Gandon Sun, 18 Nov 2007 00:00:00 MST
