If you take a look at the people around you, how many of them do you think earn enough? With the growing demands and service and goods offerings in today’s societies, it is impossible to be satisfied with a monthly wage unless of course you are pretty good at limiting your spending.

 

Personally for me, the limiting factor is annoying and I’m sure I will find a lot of others who agree with me. Just imagine a life where you can spend as much as you want as many things as you like?


It’s not a far fetched dream…. You can make it happen and you can make it true of your life. All you need to do first is to make more money before spending more money. I’ve seen so many people, especially youngsters, who spend so much more than they are capable of earning. What is important is that you can actually afford all those things you spend on. Spending from credit cards or through a mortgage or loan is not spending the right way because it is not the money you earned, but borrowed.


Always evaluate your finances. Make accounts of your monthly income, your means of income and make calculated estimations for the future. Now make an account from your expenditure. Then categorize your expenditure in to needs and wants. See how much you have spent on obligations and necessities and how much you’ve spent for non-urgent ‘wants’. If your wants outbalance your needs, you are in big trouble. If you have gone in to debt because of your ‘wants’ you are still in trouble.

 

So what you could do is, slow down on the things you like until you have a means of earning all that money to afford everything you want. In order to make money, you need to think out of the box. Look at Bill gates, Richard Branson or Larry Page and Sergey Brin ; they all have one thing in common; they are creative thinkers who think out of the box. We all have that ability, with the only exception of some using it effectively and many others not. So be creative and come up with ideas to make more money. You could turn in to the next multi-billionaire.
