Perfect Elixir

Cont’d from page 27

the quality factor! When deciding if the latest tech toy, kitchen gadget, or apparel item is worth it, factor in how many times you’ll use it or wear it. For that matter, you can even consider cost per hour for experiences!

26. Spend on Experiences, Not Things

Putting your money toward purchases like a concert or a picnic in the park — instead of spending it on pricey material objects — gives you more happiness for your buck. And remember that material items are basically housing your cash, and in a financial crunch cannot typically be quickly sold to recoup the cash.

27. Shop Solo

Ever have a friend declare, “That’s so cute on you! You have to get it!” for everything you try on? Or have a buddy egg you on to go ahead and purchase that shotgun that you know you can’t afford? Save your socializing for a walk in the park, or a sporting event, instead of a stroll through the mall. You should begin to treat shopping with serious attention.

28. Spend on the Real You—Not the Imaginary You

It’s easy to fall into the trap of buying for the person you want to be: chef, professional stylist, triathlete, Rock Star.

How to Save Right for Retirement

29. Start Saving ASAP

Not next week. Not when you get a raise. Not next year. Today. Because money you put in your retirement fund now will have more time to grow through the power of compound growth.

30. Do Everything Possible Not to Cash Out Your Retirement Account Early

Dipping into your retirement funds early will hurt you many times over. For starters, you’re negating all the hard work you’ve done so far saving — and you’re preventing that money from being invested. Second, you’ll be penalized for an early withdrawal, and those penalties are usually hefty. Finally, you’ll get hit with a tax bill for the money you withdraw. All these factors make cashing out early a very last resort.

31. Give Money to Get Money

The famous 401(k) match is when your employer contributes money to your retirement account. But you’ll only get that contribution if you contribute first. That’s why it’s called a match, see?

32. When You Get a Raise, Raise Your Retirement Savings, Too

You know how you’ve always told yourself you would save more when you have more? We’re calling you out on that. Every time you get a bump in pay, the first thing you should do is up your automatic transfer to savings and increase your retirement contributions. It’s just one step in our checklist for starting to save for retirement.

I know these things seem simple but doing them continuously everyday will keep you from getting behind the financial eight-ball. Set up a spread sheet, change some behaviors and this will become second nature to you. I guarantee you will sleep better at night!
