Get Serious and Save Money

Do you save? Seriously save? Are the type of person that has every intention to save money but all you really save is the change on your dresser?

The key to saving is automation. If you can talk to your employer and have them auto deduct and send some to savings then you are golden. If your employer can’t do this then you need to automate yourself.

For example I put my check into my bank(we don’t have Direct Deposit) and I have my INGDirect account automatically withdraw every week from my checking account.

This is a great way to automate your savings. Use this tip and you will be glad down the road on a rainy day.

It seems simple but you would be surprised at how few of people actually save money on a regular basis. Get serious and save!

    I wish I could save some money. Seriously! But regular expenses keep growing faster than income. That’s why I try to make additional income from blogging.:)

    Saving has more to do with will power: you save if you have will to put a share of money aside regularly and not to spent it ocassionally. Automation is just a tool.
