Download or read book Love Your Life Not Theirs written by Rachel Cruze and published by Ramsey Press. This book was released on 2016-09-14 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel Cruze shines a spotlight on the most damaging money habit we have: comparing ourselves to others. Then she unpacks seven essential money habits for living the life we really want--a life in line with our values, where we can afford the things we want to buy without being buried under debt, stress, and worry. The Joneses are broke. Life looks good, but hidden beneath that glossy exterior are credit card bills, student loans, car payments, and an out-of-control mortgage. Their money situation is a mess, and they're trying to live a life they simply can't afford. So why exactly do we try so hard to keep up with the Joneses? Are we really living the lives we want, or are we chasing someone else's dream, just trying to keep up appearances on social media, at church, and in our community? Why are we letting other people set the pace for our own family's finances? In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel shows you how to buy and do the things that are important to you--the right way. That starts by choosing to quit the comparisons, reframing the way you think about money, and developing new habits like avoiding debt, living on a plan, watching your spending, saving for the future, having healthy conversations about money, and giving. These habits work, and Rachel is living proof. Now, she wants to empower you to live the life you've always dreamed of without creating the debt, stress, and worry that are all too often part of the deal. Social media isn't real life, and trying to keep up with the Joneses will never get you anywhere. It's time to live--and love--your life, not theirs. "I've never read a book about money that takes this approach--and that's a good thing! Comparison has a way of weaving itself throughout all aspects of our lives, including our money. In Love Your Life, Not Theirs, Rachel Cruze outlines the seven money habits that really matter--and they have nothing to do with keeping up with the Joneses!" Candace Cameron-Bure Actress, author, and co-host of The View "Love Your Life, Not Theirs is full of the kind of practical, straightforward advice we've come to expect from Rachel Cruze. She offers guidance on paying down debt, smart saving, and the right way to talk to your spouse about money. These indispensable tips can help with day-to-day spending decisions and put you on a path to establishing healthy financial habits." Susan Spencer Editor-in-Chief for Woman's Day "Cruze's self-deprecating and honest voice is a great resource for anyone wanting to take charge of their money. With humor and approachability, she helps her readers set themselves up for success and happiness, no matter what current financial state they may be in." Kimberly Williams-Paisley New York Times best-selling author of Where the Light Gets In "In today's world of social media, the temptation to play the comparison game is stronger than ever. Love Your Life, Not Theirs is the perfect reminder that, when it comes to money, comparison is a game you can't win. A terrific--and much needed--read." Jean Chatzky Financial Editor, NBC TODAY and Host of HerMoney with Jean Chatzky Podcast

Download or read book Money Saving Tips written by Eric Van Wyke and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-10-20 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Planning and sticking to a personal budget can be tedious. Actually, a lot of people dread budgeting as much as they dread going to the dentist. Unfortunately, you do need to take time to design and adhere to a budget, but the benefits of doing so are infinitely greater than the costs. Budgeting is the first step to saving money. A budget is your guideline in spending your hard-earned money to make sure you save money and only spend what you can afford. This technique ensures a surplus you can use to pay off any existing debts or save for the future. When you live on a budget, you must make careful decisions about how you spend your money. You will not be tempted to make impulse purchases because each purchase or payment is made based on an objective decision-making process. Another advantage of having a personal budget plan is that you can allocate your limited funds to both your present needs and your future goals like retirement, your children's college education or even your own home. When you do not have a budget, it is quite easy for your funds to slip through your hands, and you end up barely making ends meet. Hence, saving money is an excellent endeavor. This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to effectively save more money, so you no longer need to struggle to live paycheck to paycheck. Even during difficult times, you and your family do not need to suffer and live a deprived life. You can take control of your finances and provide for your family. The tips and techniques included in this book are easy to implement, so you can start saving money in all areas of your life. Always keep in mind that you deserve to be financially free. It is up to you to claim the independence.
Download or read book The Mom s Guide to Saving Money and Time at the Supermarket written by The Hyperink Team and published by Hyperink Inc. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 29 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABOUT THE BOOK Almost everybody dreams of saving time and money, two of the most precious resources in the modern world. When you become a mother, saving time and money becomes even more important, but it also becomes a little more challenging. Whether you are a fulltime homemaker, a self-employed professionalr who works from home, or a working mother who holds an outside job, making sure your family has three nutritious meals a day (plus snacks and other extras) can take up a surprising amount of money and energy. According to Gary Foreman of The Dollar Stretcher, many families spend up to 20 percent of their total income on food purchases alone. This figure can shift depending on different factors, but if it sounds high to you, then you can definitely benefit from taking greater control of your shopping trips and seeing the figures you really want. Before you had kids, a trip to the supermarket probably involved a quick spin around the store to grab healthy essentials and a few indulgences, based only on your tastes or those of your partner. EXCERPT FROM THE BOOK It's the digital age, and you can take advantage of modern conveniences even during basic tasks such as stocking up on groceries for your hungry family. Check out trusted online vendors such Amazon.com or the websites of well-known retailers to see if you can snag a better deal online than when shopping in person. Finding a good deal online cuts down on the process of driving to the store, locating your item, comparing it with other items available, waiting in line at the cash register, and so on. When you are shopping online, you can accomplish everything you need to do during a few quiet minutes between dinner and bedtime, or before the kids arrive home from school. After you compare deals and place your order, you just have to wait for your purchases to show up on your doorstep. The key here is to time your online purchases so that you do not have a gap between the time you need your purchase and the time it is delivered to your home. For instance, when you realize you are nearly running out of basics such as toothpaste or toilet paper, place an order for bulk items. By the time you are ready to restock with a pricey or time-consuming trip to the store, you will already have your new stock waiting... Buy a copy to keep reading!

Download or read book How Money Walks How 2 Trillion Moved Between the States and Why It Matters written by Travis H. Brown and published by How Money Walks. This book was released on 2013 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1995 and 2010, millions of Americans moved between the states, taking with them over $2 trillion in adjusted gross incomes. Two trillion dollars is equivalent to the GDP of California, the ninth largest in the world. It’s a lot of money. Some states, like Florida, saw tremendous gains ($86.4 billion), while others, like New York, experienced massive losses ($58.6 billion). People moved, and they took their working wealth with them. The question is, why? Why did Americans move so much of their income from state to state? Which states benefitted and which states suffered? And why does it matter? Using official statistics from the IRS, How Money Walks explores the hows, whys, and impact of this massive movement of American working wealth. Consider these facts. Between 1995 and 2010: The nine states with no personal income taxes gained $146.2 billion in working wealth The nine states with the highest personal income tax rates lost $107.4 billion The 10 states with the lowest per capita state-local tax burdens gained $69.9 billion The 10 states with the highest per capita state-local tax burdens lost $139 billion Money—and people—moved from high-tax states to low-tax ones. And the tax that seemed to matter the most? The personal income tax. The states with no income taxes gained the greatest wealth, while the states with the highest income taxes lost the most. Why does this matter? Because the robust presence of working wealth is the leading indicator of economic health. The states that gained working wealth are growing and thriving. The states that lost working wealth lost their most precious cargo—their tax base—and the consequences are dire: stagnation, deterioration, an economic death spiral as they continue to raise taxes and lose people, businesses, and working wealth. The numbers don't lie. ___________________ “When I read How Money Walks, I thought, ‘It’s about time.’ Finally, we have a book that addresses one of our nation’s most critical (yet rarely discussed) fiscal issues: the migration of working wealth as a direct result of personal income tax rates. Brown’s book paints a clear portrait of where money goes and why. How Money Walks should be required reading for anyone who wants to understand why some states struggle to retain people and businesses while others welcome billions of new dollars each year.” Dr. Arthur Laffer Founder and chairman, Laffer Associates and Laffer Investments Former economic advisor to President Ronald Reagan
