Seven Remedies for a Broke-Ass Pocket



Without getting into any deep stuff, let me cut straight to the
chase:

The Simple Truth
  1. Get a job.

  3. Stop living above your means—Buy only what you need and what you can afford
  4. Make a budget, and stick to it no matter what, except for extenuating circumstances
  5. Pay using cash—whenever possible—it helps to give you a tangible view of the damages of where your money is going before it is all gone.
  6. Stay away from money grabbers such as malls, outlets, and e-commerce
  7. Don't ever leave yourself BROKE!!!
