With the cost of living soaring upwards by the day, one needs to take drastic steps to save for the future.
I find that most of us don't make a conscious decision to take simple actions that would go a long way in cutting down on our daily expenses.
With the constant increase of the cost of fuel, it is essential to find ways of cutting down on this.
Instead of always using the car even when going round the block, you can start walking those short distances.
You will not only save on fuel but also improve your health status.
Consider to sometime use public transport instead of using your car.
If you have friends or neighbors that you trust opt to contribute on fuel and share one cab to work.
Secondly, most of us have a tendency to wait until a problems occurs then we start moving up and down looking for money to arrest the situation.
We may make long term plans but often times we fail to include little things like dental checkups.
The third point is instead of shopping for your house hold items little by little it would be advisable to buy them in one swoop.
And also when you buy items like detergents, cooking oil etc buy in large size for they are economical in the long run.
After all has been said and done it would be of no use to save and not treat yourself well.
After spending countless hours working hard at your place of work it would be unfair not to take your family out for a treat.
Give yourself a break and enjoy your hard earned rest.
