Stop Being Poor

That might sound like a dramatic title, I mean, you're not really poor, are you? Well you might be poorer than you think. Many Americans have no idea how long it will take them to become debt free. The problem actually stems from budgeting. That's right, one of the biggest financial mistakes we make is in having a household budget. Here's why.

You owe a LOT more than you think you do

Interest is the enemy

Locked into credit card debt

Each month when we sit down to prepare the household budget we look at our income and compare it to our monthly bills and that's why most of us will never get out of debt. Why? Because our monthly bills are largely made up payments such as card payments and loan payments and almost all of us are only making the minimum monthly payment. That practice is making you poor, you might not know it yet, but you will when it comes time for you to retire I promise you. To understand how interest rates will keep you financially treading water, watch the video below.

Most of us use credit to get the things we want because we can't afford them. Or at least we can't afford them today. Sometimes this makes sense, for example, almost no one can buy a house with cash. But most of the time we are using credit cards for instant gratification and that is a critical, financial error. Living this way will actually keep us from getting what we want in the long run.
