Becoming
Financially Fit
Step 1
• Sit down and make a BUDGET

• Know how much you have coming in and
  going out every month
Debt is Dumb
• Credit card companies and banks will rip
  you off and feel good about it.

• You’ll pay interest on purchases you made
  years ago.
Average Americans
• Keeping up with the Jones’s doesn’t make
  any sense (the Jones’s are BROKE!)




• Buy what you can afford. Afford = pay for.
Automobiles
• Never lease – its like throwing hundred
  dollar bills out the window every week.



• Don’t buy new – major hit when you leave
  the lot. 5 years later = loss of 40% of
  value.
Automobiles Cont.
• Try to have no loan – work your way up to
  a nicer car.



• Buy practical cars.
School Loans
• Try to pay as you go – you’ll have time to
  work at least a part-time job.

• 6 months after you graduate
 interest starts accumulating
on your loans.
Home Mortgage (loan)




• Put at least a 20% down payment – avoids extra interest.

• Payments no more than 25% of income.

• 15 year instead of 30 year.

Saving and Investing



• Continuously save for future purchases. Plan
  ahead and pay cash when the time comes.

• Start saving early for retirement 10 – 15% of
  your income.
• http://www.daveramsey.com/tools/investing-
  calculator/
Summary
• Make more than you spend – do it on
  paper before it happens (budget).
• Pay cash – no loans, credit cards.
• Responsible mortgages.
• Save money regularly for the short term.
• Invest money Regularly for the long term.
Financial Freedom
• Not tied down by a job you don’t like.

• Can give money away in huge amounts.

• No worries or concerns about you or your
  family’s future.
