Live lean, Lower Expenses: Your Armor Against Global Recession
Times are hard whether at home or abroad. Across the globe,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], financial markets are reeling from the effects of recession in even the major economic powers. The butterfly effect is making us feel the crunch in China and elsewhere, and we worry if we are able to withstand economic downturns. Fear not; with a few common-sensical measures, you can be living lean by lowering expenses and stay financially sane and stable.
1. Live within your means.
Don't borrow. Getting into debt is the biggest rock you can loop around on your neck to drown you. It is easy to be tempted to make those credit card purchases and worry about the payments later but that's exactly the point - the payments later and will you be able to afford them.
Living within your means is easy as you maintain a clean and simple lifestyle. Don't gloat and bloat. Budgeting is simple - revenues must equal if not be more than your expenses. When you do it the other way around, and spend more than what you earn,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you're in for a lot of trouble.
Prepare a budget and stick to it. Line up your regular expenses - meals,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], transportation, utilities, the children's tuition, the occasional entertainment or entertaining. See where you can economize without sacrificing quality. Make sure the cost side will not be more than the revenue side. If you're earning a thousand, don't spend two thousand.
2. Lower expenses
Cost cutting is not for the corporations alone. You can do your share of cost cutting if you know some of the common-sense b[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]. Conserving water and electricity cut on your utilities bills. Cooking the right kind and amount of food saves you wastages and cost for medicines if you don't get the right kind of nutrition. Walking instead of taking the car to the local grocery saves you fuel money. Buying pre-owned or second-hand items, like books or work clothes, saves you precious bucks.
3. Enjoin everyone's help
Let your family take responsibility for living lean by lowering their expenses,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], too. Budget the kids' time in front of the TV. Don't allow them to waste food. Teach them to shut off the light when they leave the room, turn off the faucet and the shower when they're through, turn off the air con when it's already cool. Making them responsible even at an early age is a parents' responsibility to the whole family. If it is only one member of a family of six who is conscious of cutting down on expenses, the effort is futile.
4. Plan for the future and save
Living lean by lowering expense can be complemented further by planning and saving. Budgeting is part of the planning. But you can budget your saving, too. The formula is really simple. Some people save what they have extra. Reverse the process: allot money to be saved at the onset. Then after you've set aside the money for your savings, now you live within the money that's left, and be content with what you have now. Joe Cline writes articles for real estate Pflugerville.
