Great Ways to Save Money-Goals


When you are planning to save or making a budget it's useful to break your goals into short term, middle term, and long term goals.


Being able to reach your goals and see your accomplishments is a great way to motivate yourself to do the hard work of saving. For example, if you set a short term goal of saving for tickets to a symphony or play and reach that goal, you will be encouraged to keep saving for your longer term goals.


Once your plan becomes routine and habitual, you'll see that it's not very hard to save. You just have to be persistent and stick to your plan even when you’re tempted to overspend.
