Your Money Attitude
By Ginita Wall, CPA, CFP
Money makes a big difference in how people feel about themselves and their lives. Pick the words from these lists that apply to your money attitude.
Column A |
Column B |
|
|
The more answers you listed from Column A, the more positive you feel about your financial situation. But even a few answers listed from Column B mean you need to work on improving your financial situation through goal-setting, saving and investing.
List the answers you chose from Column B at the top of a sheet of paper, one sheet for each answer.
On each sheet, write five solutions to the problem, beginning each one with "I could..."
Leave some room between each of your statements.
Now write a statement beneath each of the "I coulds" that begins "I haven't because..."
Then make a list of the things you are willing to do to deal with these problems.
Add to your list over the next week. As you expand your list, you will create your own personalized "To Do" list to put you on the road to financial security.
At WIFE we welcome your comments and home budget questions. Please feel free to contact us.
