Living In Financial Excellence Episode 16: Saying “No” so later you can say “Yes” July 14, 2010.
Janelle returns to the studio to talk about how we’ve sacrificed over the years in order to win with money. It all starts with one liberating word: “NO.” But in our society, you’re not allowed to say no to anything. We disagree, and we share in today’s show the things we’ve learned to say no to.
Show notes:
- Mailbag – Lisa asks how to budget for those “Magic Months” when you get an extra paycheck. Bill asks a similar question about how to budget when you get paid weekly.
- It’s hard to avoid bank offers for more debt but it can be done and we’re living proof!
- It’s a little taboo these days, but you can (and should) say no to your kids every once in a while instead of letting their wants dictate your spending and ruin your budget. read more
