Kαλημέρα, Happy Thursday
Are You Being Robbed?
They say inflation is on the rise, and it looks like there is no end in sight.
With a recent hike in gas prices, six-dollar plus lattes, higher grocery bills, and skyrocketing home prices, it feels like inflation is stealing our purchasing power.
Pay Yourself First!
If you’re feeling the effects of inflation, it might not be a bad idea to start paying yourself first, which is one of the simplest ways to cut overspending while adding to your savings.
It’s Easy
Open a separate bank account and get your bank to automatically deposit a specific amount you feel comfortable with monthly into that account. This way, you are saving without having to think about it. It’s as simple as that!
Example: $500 deposited each month automatically over three years, and you’ve reached $18,000. Not that bad!
Good luck, happy savings:)
