"MONEY" HOW DO YOU PICTURE MONEY?

Money Secrets for Single Parents

The very word "MONEY", conjures up many different pictures for everyone

Is it GOOD or “the Root of all Evil”?

Actually, in reality "money" is nothing but pieces of paper or coins!

For example if you put a stack of bills on a table, what do they do? Can they do anything by themselves?
You are Right? Nothing. They aren’t food, or shelter. They just sit there.

Now look at what you can "Exchange for money" ?

When you go to a job; you are exchanging your time for "money"; (it could have been eggs, chickens, tree leaves) but money is our the current "medium of exchange".

Now we know,’ Money” doesn’t do anything by itself-SO

We are responsible for how we acquire and use "money" in our lives.

A responsibility we would prefer to ignore sometimes and we often do.

It is good to have a safe landing place where we can share desires, problems pros and cons of:

Why we need money?
How much do we need?
Where are we going to “get it”?
What alternatives do we have?

With all the challenges that occur in a lifetime, Review, how you received "money" in your lifetime.

An allowance;
A gift from relatives
Your first summer job
Part time jobs through school and college
and finally your first career opportunity

There were expenses along the way, ever increasing. What you needed money for and how much changes constantly.

A fact of life, the amount you you need keeps growing as your responsibilities grow.

For Example; You have everything going smoothly and WOW!!!

Your life train takes a left turn; Everything seems to have turned upside down;
STOP: Remember the basic rules are all the same.

Situations may be different.

Are you ready to make “Each Day” the first day of the rest of your life!

Today is the most important time for you and always will be., Yesterday is over, you can't change it and tomorrow is always a day away.

Today is like a daily birthday, it is here; cherish it, make the most of it, don't waste a minute of it.

When it is gone it is gone forever; BUT you have another TODAY.

Whatever your age or circumstances, take time to plan today, take action today and have fun.
