You know, it’s amazing how we spend so much of our time worrying and so much of our money on interest from debt we owe that we never invest money in ourselves.
Forget about retirement for a moment.
What about having a couple of bucks in the bank or under the mattress so we can just run away for a few days and not have the debt collectors chasing after us?
What if we could just pay cash for a two or three day trip with our significant other and not worry about the bills?
And I’m not talking about taking the plastic with you and trying to squeeze a few dollars from your credit limits only to go cheap and worry about the credit card clearing when they run it through the machine.
I’m talking about taking several hundred dollars of cash and just having a good time.
That’s what investing in your self is all about. You get to have a little fun for a change and not worry about life in general.
How do I do this you ask?
You start a slush fund now. Use my $15 dollar a day strategy. I often used this line from a guy named Dave Ramsey. He says it differently. My version is:
You can have a little fun tomorrow if you’ll do what nobody else will do today.
Cash is king. Now, go and have some fun.
