Everyone needs to have these money skills.

in Project HOPE3 years ago

By now, I believe that a lot more individuals understand that money does not fall from heaven and we understand even more that the background that we come from does not necessarily define what our adult financial life is going to turn out to be, we have heard stories of people who were born with fortune losing it all and likewise we have also heard stories of people who were born with nothing ranking amongst the world top billionaires, it all depends on gaining knowledge about finance all the time.

It is impossible to get rich by just saving.

It is a good act to save but no one got rich by just putting few bucks away all the time, most parents have taught their children the importance of saving but they did not teach them what they need to do with the money saved. It is really good to save because it serve as a back-up plan for us most of the time but we also need to utilize the saved money appropriately in order for it to count for something.

Wealth is not determined by how much luxurious items you have.

Having luxury does not guarantee that you are rich most luxurious items are simply liabilities that take money away from us even if it makes us appear wealthy to the world but it is better to look at building assets, this assets will increase your financial standard at the long run unlike luxury which will rather decrease your financial volume.

Take advantage of loan access.

Being able to use other people’s money in order to grow your own wealth is a very good skill to cultivate, although it is wrong to get into debt just because you want to flaunt your wealth but it is a good thing to take loans from individuals or organizations in order to provide a better service for your business and grow your brand.

Develop more income sources.

It is a wrong move to sit with one source of income and continue to cut down on the important things you need just because you are trying to save cost, this will most likely result into frustration but instead you should look for other ways of generating income and building a sustainable pattern of living.

Know where your money is going to.

After you have worked on increasing your income, it is very important to understand where every dollar you earn is going to, there are so many phone applications that can help with proper budgeting and with this application, one can figure out where the acquired funds is going into.

You shared amazing tips here. I agree with you that luxurious items do not indicate or show how wealthy someone is but what indicates wealth is the assets owned.
Thanks a lot for sharing this amazing piece buddy

Well said. I have always say that it is not enough to save, instead let your money be working for you instead of staying idle

Hi dear friend @busted1

After you have worked on increasing your income, it is very important to understand where every dollar you earn is going to

That's right, friend, it's a mistake I'm making, I think I care a lot about generating income and then I'm not really sure where that income goes, so I'm going to be more careful with that from now on
regards

For me , developing more income sources is something I try to do because the economy keeps going backwards everyday here and everything is so expensive. Nice piece
