my own confession

Randell - my financial coach, made his confession. it's my turn.

This morning my wife ask for grocery money. I said I don't have money to give her.

ARE WE BROKE?

NO!!!! we are not. But you hate the feeling that you can't easily give the grocery money she asks of you. it was not a want, it was a basic need.

Not that I don't have grocery money but I want to check the list our cook gave us. Money does not grow on trees. Our cook does not understand that.

But I still hate the feeling of not giving the GROCERY money.

So I check our financial situation.

We are not financially healthy. I hate the feeling again!!!
But we are not financially broke. But you still hate that feeling!!!

I made dumb investments 2 years ago that could have easily made my day better because I can give the GROCERY money!!! I hate the feeling!!!

I told my wife - let's cut cost. Check what we really need. Give me one more month. (Don't you feel for me now?!)

Why one more month?

Here's why.

1. We are finishing up our last payment this month for our seed RETIREMENT FUND which is quite a hefty sum that would be deducted from our monthly expenses.

2. We are finishing up this month our dollar investment that I made 5 years ago. That's minus our monthly expense as well.

3. We just finished last month our car payments (paid without any interest). We got a good deal from our friend.

That is where the money is going lately but we have been faithful and we are continually practicing putting our small savings into our retirement baskets and investment baskets.

IF YOU WILL LIVE LIKE NO ONE ELSE, LATER YOU CAN LIVE LIKE NO ONE ELSE!!!

Don't you just love that feeling.....
