SATURDAY SHOPPING AND STUFF (#4)

I won't have time to post tomorrow, so I'm posting early for Saturday. I have a suggestion for a website that I think you'll be interested in. A lot of you have probably already heard of it, but I'm going to mention it anyway. This website will help you learn how to establish a budget, save, spend wisely, invest, teach your kids how to manage money, etc. Go to crown.org. This is a financial management website that is so user-friendly. There are tons of resources, guidelines, helps, downloads, tips, etc. here. I took a Crown class at church and it has proven to be invaluable to me and my family. We are now on our way to being debt-free (we've still got a little way to go, but are on track) and learning how to manage our finances overall better. One of our teen sons has taken the Crown teens class and we think that will prove invaluable to him too. We're looking forward to having a class with the girls. Crown takes the fear and apprehension out of trying to get control over finances. This subject is not comfortable for most of us, but it seems more uncomfortable when we actually have to put a plan in practice. Crown makes it much easier, and once you see that it works, you're motivated to keep going. Crown has all kinds of ways to get control from the old-fashioned pencil and paper method to using software and the internet. It's up to you. Do it with your spouse, children, aging parents, friends who may need help and financial accountability, etc. You'll be so glad you did. God will be honored too, that you learned how to spend and invest His money wisely. You did know it was His didn't you?:)



Spend wisely this Saturday!!
