Keep Your Money Green!

When I found myself in credit card debt up to my eyeballs I started using cash as much as possible and only carried one credit with a small credit limit for emergency purposes only. By keeping my money green rather than in the form of plastic it made it much harder to impulse shop and buy things that I could not afford. It was the best money move I ever made! When you pay with cash, you see the cash go bye-bye and it makes a big impact psychologically. It was very hard for me to overspend using this money technique.

Pass It Along

I recently found a few new blogs that are very well done and have some great info that I would enjoy hearing from on their one piece of money advice. They are Sorta Frugal, Swamproot, and Ramblings Of A Redneck Woman. No pressure, only if it interests ya.

NOTE: For some more great money advice, check out the where this MEME all started at Moolanomy.com by Pinyo. Excellent reading!

    Ditto wow and thanks. I will do the same. I already know what it would be. And thanks for the bond advice.

    Kandy, well, I just read your advice and I would say that you don’t give yourself nearly enough credit. Your advice is not only very well written, but candid and quite powerful! Thank you for participating.

    Here is mine. Real late on Sunday night like a kid procrastinating their homework. ;-)
