Are You Good With Finances

Posted on 11/10/09, 11:37 am

So many people are struggling at the moment, but I just read of a woman who is in so much debt mainly down to grooming, things like hair extensions, botox .. I found it very shocking.. We always allocate a budget and stick to it. how good are you.. Do like to buy on impulse or maybe you are a saver.

  I'm a saver. With tough times the way they are, I have to be. I treat myself to a manicure and pedicure. My manicures have been free lately, as they are running a special. Once the special is off, I'll just stick to my pedicures. I have bought new clothes. I needed warmer clothes that fit me. I don't buy on impulse. I don't see how people can afford botox, hair extensions, etc... I always like to have extra money in the bank. With Christmas near by, I need to count my dollars! Great topic Clay XXXX

  Unfortunately, I'm an impulse buyer. But these times, I've learned to curb my spending quite a bit. Oftentimes, I buy gifts for loved ones; not just for myself. I just enjoy making loved ones and friends happy ever since I was little. But, that's just me. Sometimes, my daughter yells at me, for being so generous- it's my biggest shortcoming.

  I think sometimes and impulse buy can be a good thing too.. I suppose we all have times when we put the brakes on and other times when we have a little splurge. XXX

  There are times when I do buy on impulse, but mainly I am a saver.
