BASIC FINANCIAL SECURITY

To achieve Basic Financial Security you should follow the four tips listed below. The fact is that most people don't and find themselves in debt and with no decent retirement! Think of debt as a cancerous disease which you want to avoid like a plague. Having a mortgage on a house is in most cases good because you are paying on something that has long term equity. Having debt on a TV or Computer is just plain stupid. 1. Put aside 10% of net pay each month. 2. Create emergency fund of at least 3 months pay. 3. Stop frivolous, minor spending - such as expensive coffees. 4. Talk to a fee only financial advisor, or do your own research. I'm covering basic financial security planning because when you generate more income you need a plan to know what to do with the money or it will disappear!

SMALL BUSINESS IDEAS

It's a fact that small businesses fuel the country's economy. Small businesses have little and sometimes no startup costs plus have government endorsed tax write offs. With today's unstable job market a small business may be right for you. Try to be creative and think of things you are good at doing. Stuff like hobbies, computers, crafts and even services you can provide may be the stimulus for your small business.For example if you have many seniors in your neighborhood who may need rides to doctors appointments or community centers why not provide them rides. You can charge modest fees and through word of mouth your business can flourish. Plus you may meet some great people along the way. This type of service may only require a marginal increase in car insurance which should be doable since you have a car already. Plus if you are friendly and courteous you will have repeat customers. A simple flyer distributed door to door plus a posting in community centers may be all you need. Good luck.
