To Keep Your Cash . . .

The "Do" List.

Do cut up the credit cards, or at the very least pay the balance in full every month. If you like plastic, use a debit card instead of a debit card.
Do follow a budget. Live within your means. Heck, live below your means and apply the rest to any debt that you may have.
Do pay yourself first. Put money in savings every payday. Save 10 percent, give 10 percent is a good and easy rule to follow throughout your life.
Do participate in your employer-sponsored retirement plan. Hey, it’s free money. Don’t turn it down!
Do shop with a list and use coupons wisely. Remember that an item on sale is never a bargain if it’s something that you wouldn’t use anyway, so don’t buy it just because it’s on sale.
Do save time as well as money by planning your meals. You’ll eat healthier and nurture a happy family in the process.
Do pay off those bills. Set a goal, make a plan, and become debt free. Wow, what a way to enjoy life! (Try it, you’ll like it.)
Do pay your taxes on time. Take any deductions you’re entitled to. Consult a tax professional for advice. Better yet, campaign for the FairTax to help make paying taxes simple and fair.
Do give yourself a raise. Start a work-at-home business. You can start an eBay business with an investment of nothing but a little bit of time.
