10 MONEY HABITS

You need to develop To Turn Your Finances Around

=A THREAD BY WD=
If you have ambitious money goals, the key is to have a collection of small everyday habits.

Taking small steps will improve your financial situation.
Here are some small habits you can develop:
1. PLAN YOUR PURCHASES

Make a list of exactly what you want to buy, and how much you’re going to spend.
2. LIVE ON LESS THAN YOU MAKE

If you want to have money, just don’t spend it all!
Overcome impatience and envy. You’re better than that.
3. SAVE YOUR BONUS CASH

You got a raise, had a fantastic month freelancing, take on a side gig, or net a work bonus, commit to putting away some of it.
4. BUY FOR VALUE

Always choose quality over quantity when you’re making purchases.

Each purchase you make is an investment.
Buy only if you need.
5. AVOID EMOTIONAL SPENDING

Today sales techniques revolve around getting people to buy things that they don't need or want but feel that they have to have at the moment.
6. AVOID WATCHING COMMERCIALS

you are constantly being exposed to advertisements throughout the day.

Don't make this even worse by spending your time watching commercials that can have a negative impact on your spending habits
7. WAIT BEFORE BUYING YOUR WANTS

This rule is an effective way to control impulse spending.

Whenever you feel the urge to buy something that you don't need, stop and put the thought aside.
8. PLAN FOR YOUR RETIREMENT

Yes it may seem a long way away, the later you start planning for it, the more catching up you will have to do.

Start saving money at a young age so you can give it time to grow without having to make sacrifices in the future.
9. KEEP READING ABOUT FINANCE

Utilizing stock market investing, investing for retirement, real estate investment, and many other forms of financial help you make your money grow.
10. TRACK YOUR FINANCIAL PROGRESS

Every month set aside some time to see how much progress you have made on your money goals.
The success of your financial life, really just comes down to one thing: your money habits.

- Are they good or bad?
- Are they setting you up for success, or taking you down a bad financial road?

No matter what, there is always room for improvement.

=A THREAD BY WD=
1. The Manipulator

It’s one of the most seen toxic traits.

They pull time and energy out of your life.

Manipulators always want something from you,
They’ll do anything to win you over.
2. The Liar

If a person lies to you for the first time; forgive them. If a person lies to you for the second time, avoid them.

Never lie to someone who trusts you. Never trust someone who lies to you.

“The Philosopher Emperor”

=A THREAD BY WD=
“I am dying, Maximus. When a man sees his end, he wants to know there was some purpose to his life. How will the world speak my name in years to come? Will I be known as the philosopher? The warrior? The tyrant? Or will I be the emperor who gave Rome back her true self?"
It was a cut from Ridley Scott’s 2000 epic historical film “Gladiator”

The old man is Marcus Aurelius, Roman emperor (161 to 180 AD) and a philosopher.

He was the last of the rulers known as the “Five Good Emperors”, and the last emperor of the golden age of the Roman empire.
