Being Your Money Manager

Source

Greetings to my all Hivers. A happy Thursday to everyone.in this community. Try to save something while your salary is small; it’s impossible to save after you begin to earn more. --Jack Benny

Excessive spending can be disastrous and leading one to lack of money and what Nigerians refer to as "SAPA". To avoid leaving a pay-to-check balance life, one needs planning and management. Without effective money management, financing will be a wishful thinking. Mismanagement leads to overspending.

You can't grow big without starting little. Saving a thousand no matter how little it is will help u save million. But if you can't start with a thousand, you can't save million because you will still see it as little. To save involves spending wisely and building up your savings.

I remember how I was able to save up my first 27,000(NGN) in my secondary school days. Back then, I was actually saving for a reason. My mean aim of saving was to be independent, not demanding money from my parents in every little thing I need, secondly I was saving to build and cultivate a saving habit. Every weekdays, once my Dad gives me 200 NGN for my transport fare, It took me close to a year to achieve my target.

I used that money to surprise my parents on Christmas Eve,I told them how I was able to get it. They were glad and encouraged me to keep it up.

So,money management is something that will save one in hard time and rainy days. You wouldn't need to run to anyone for help or start loaning. To avoid the stress of those, One just needs to practice saving.
