Tips On Saving For Investment by gbengalite(m): 8:26am On Feb 26, 2013 |
Saving in a time like this is pretty difficult, that is a fact. But it gets frustrating if you are laid off from work and you have little or nothing to fall back on. That is why I have put up some secret that have proven successful over the years, to help you increase your personalsavings in a time like this At one point or the other we all agree that we do need funds to do whatever we want to, be it Investment, for Retirement, college, Child's education or a year cruise. -You cannot save if you have not yet pictured what you want -The best way to achieving anything in life is to know what you want -What you want would lead to how much you need to get what you want -what you want could be anything, it varies with different individuals it could be physical things, your child's education, business, investment etc -Having known what you want, the problem becomes funds or capital to get started with; of course this is often a general problem. -Some persons have genuine and feasible business idea but are without funds. -Your idea is simply no idea if you are without funds especially if you have not started something at all (no business success antecedent). -i have come to understand this quote while i was a teenager "Life is not fair" and also this Nigerian adage "Those that have caps don't have head while those with head are without caps". People with funds no matter the amount don't usually know how to invest it they end up paying bills with it or even lavishing it while person with viable, workable and profitable investment ideas don't have funds. -Each time we give excuses that our income is little, we can't save for what we want. -The problem is not your income. I can tell you emphatically that even if your income is raised by 400% you would still make the same complain once you are used to the new income. FEASIBLE TIPS FOR SAVING Another secret I would like to reveal here are the tips you really need to sky-rocket your savings, even if you have zero-balance savings. • Remove your savings before anything • Reduce your bill • Sleep over before you buy anything • Find money to save • Avoid buying the latest phone • Take just enough cash with you • Stop taking your ATM card everywhere • Make more than you spend • Choose a frugal spouse • Cook at home • Learn to fix things yourself • Do not buy brand new car • Go to market not super-market • Do a price check before you buy things • Do not buy brands or labels buy more of generic product • Always occupy yourself with activities thereby preventing spending • If you must use paid TV go for the lower rate • Be optimal during Christmas Gbenga Ogunbiyi Author Download free '33Ways To Save Money£'FRI 28th June www.amazon.com/dp/B00CLU8OO6/ https://www.facebook.com/StreetPubLtd twitter: @gbengalite dp/B00CLU8OO6/ 38 Likes |

dammytex: Your tips are kinda okay... Instead of using DSTV, use Startimes, if you must watch epl etc go to a viewing center, instead of designer clothes, buy, bend down select, instead of designer perfume, buy those mixtures that those abokis hawk on the streets of wuse. Dont ever go to Drumstix, visit iya abasira if you are hungry. 1 Like |

Thanks a lot OP. Just to add a few points. 1 It is crucial to differentiate between Needs and Wants; failure in this would usually, inevitably lead to financial failures. 2 Keep some gap between you, your wants and family from money you save for Needs. Open an investment-saving account. 3 After you chose a prudent spouse, run the home with some basic finance platform; work with budgets. If you fail, you would at least know how & when. 4 See relatives and friends as people who compliment life; do not compete for trendiness or fame. Every finger with its relative length. 5 Have a viable project and allocate cash before you have it. Above all, remember you and your immediate family is a major responsibility for you. It's up to you to guaranty their financial security with part of the gifts from God. 5 Likes |

I also realised that, when one is a born again, it help one to save more money. Women things makes one to spend more... Today: i lost my phone, tomorow: i need N10'000, next tomorrow: our lecturer said we should pay N4,000 to pass his exams or we should him the ''thing'' to him to jazin... Am not even talking of recharge cards. And you will always try to meet her needs so that when you are in need she will also meeet urs, too. But one thing know is, Jesus is coming soon... Give ur life to Jesus and save more monies! 2 Likes |
