New Year To Do List: Secure Finances
It is New Years Eve, for me I have forty six minutes until 2009 officialy starts. This year my only resolution is to secure my families financial future. I vow to open savings accounts for eah of my children and grow it by fifteen percent by the end of the year. I vow to start putting money into a retirement fund for my husband and I. I vow to spend wisely and earn vigorously.
The economy tonight is shaky as it has been for what seems like forever and nothing is certain. When large icons like Ford and Chevrolet need to be bailed out by the government one tends to become a little aprehensive about what tomorrow may bring. I do not want to be in the percentage of of that find ourselves struggling to live day to day, I must provide stablity for our children.
Tomorrow is almost upon us; the first day of the new year has come so fast. My lists of goals have been pinned to the bulletin board and I have hundreds of possible solutions running loose in my head. By this time next year I will have my finances under control, they will NOT control my life anymore.
