Smart Money Strategies

You say you know where your money goes and you don?t need it all written down to keep up with it? I issue you this challenge. Keep track of every penny you spend for one month and I do mean every penny.

You will be shocked at what the itty-bitty expenses add up to. Take the total you spent on just one unnecessary item for the month, multiply it by 12 for months in a year and multiply the result by 5 to represent 5 years.

It?s not a lot of money ? unless you have a million dollars in that account ? but it is a start, and it is money making money.

Corporate Credit Builder

You can select the duration of your investment, and interest is paid regularly until the CD reaches maturity. CD?s can be purchased at your bank, and your bank will insure them against loss. When the CD reaches maturity, you receive your original investment, plus the interest that the CD has earned.
