“me” fund….
Posted on April 19, 2009 by MANIFEST ME! in Banking/Money/Finance, GeneralWhat is the 1st step in saving ….
It’s called paying yourself first! You pay all of your bills, but do you ever pay yourself first? Get yourself a “me” fund. Whether it be a prepaid visa or master card
a savings account or what ever. Get an account that is for the benefit for yourself. Take about 5% and pay yourself first. If you get your paycheck by direct deposit separate it and put it into a different account where you don’t see it.Most of the time if it is doesn’t end up in your hand it is easier to pay yourself. I did this…. I felt like I could not afford to pay myself. But I started putting at least 5% of my income per pay period for “me”. Now, my husband knows about my “me” fund. I don’t calculate my “me” fund into my income because I don’t want to consider it as money available for bills and etc.
So, the first step into building a savings account is get you “me” fund. Take atleast 5% of your income start building up your “me” fund. You deserve it right!
