Have you lost your marbles?by Wise Accounts on 10 Nov 2011 permalink
Not being able to account for how much you owe and how much your own is a disease that can be cured! Yes the reality of those figures is something you'd rather forget about - but that doesn't make the problem go away. A stiff drink isn't the solution either. Little streams make big rivers. You may not consider yourself a numbers person but in this world and age everything revolves around money. So be courageous and build yourself a dashboard of where you stand financially. Wise Accounts is the no-brainer online accounting system to enter your receipts and paychecks. Having this basic information in the system has some significant benefits. By knowing the frequency and the amount of your outgoings and of your income Wise Accounts can forecast your cash flow into the future. Wouldn't it be nice to know ahead of time if you are heading up or down? Not only that but what about knowing right now how much tweaking in your spending would it take to bring you back to a balanced budget? It maybe not be that hard to pull yourself out of that financial hole you're in. There is only one way to find out - do the figures! There is no need to be a hero and wait until you have to file for bankruptcy. There might still be something in your power to redress the situation. As you build your financial records you will keep your finger on your financial pulse. You may have a spark of inspiration and find ways to re-finance things (oh no, not another credit card, thanks!). As you get your grey matter working on the subject you might come across a way to do more with less, to change your consumption, to sell something you don't need, to move to cheaper accommodation, to take on a second job, to burn the candle at both ends... (OK, there is a limit to all that pep talk. But you get the drift. Do nothing and nothing will happen.) At the end of the day you have to take charge of your own life. The flip side is that coming on top of thinks will empower you to be in control but more importantly to be able to help and guide someone else through the same journey. Wouldn't that make everything worthwhile?
