Establish financial goals. Prepare a written budget. Make it realistic and plan to stick with it. You can make your money go 10% farther. Limit credit cards to those you absolutely need. To avoid interest penalties, pay all accounts within 30 days. Set up a category in the budget for entertainment. This is an expense that often drags families down. Establish two reserves, one of them an emergency fund in the checking account, the other a larger fund, in an accessible savings account, equal if possible to a month’s income. Before going to a store, make a list. Avoid buying anything that isn’t on the list. Get in the habit of realizing that dollars add up. Spend each one as if it were your last. “Survival suggestions from the doctor” LIFE Magazine article – February 13, 1970 edition “ Side Stepping the Money Gap”
