A friend of mine is a SAHM. She also has 3 kids and she worries about money.
I don’t think she’s telling me the whole story but I sense that she’s in a deep hole. She just says that her family of 5 lives pay check to pay check. That’s her reason why she can’t save.
That’s what most people think. But I disagree. I believe we all can save something each day.
I gave a tip: Save $1 a day.
Each month you will have $30. One year you will have $360.
It might not seem a lot but it’s a start.
If you are looking to increase your savings, find something to supplement by freelancing your typing skills or sell baked goods around the neighborhood.
In New Orleans, there was a lady who went business to business selling baked goods. She sold cupcakes and bread for $1 each. She did that for her living for over 25 years. Why did she do that? She had a goal: to send her daughter off to college paid in full.
Do you think you can save $1 a day? Whichever day you can save more, go ahead. I think anyone can do it.
