The world needs another vehicle to get people to pay in cash.
The world does not need another credit card.
You are to set your own value, communicate that value to the world, and then not settle for less. Sound daunting? That's just because it takes you out of your comfort zone. You have got to stop being an obstacle on your own path to wealth and security and happiness. You must understand that valuing yourself is well within your control.
The things that matter most in this world are those that carry no price tag, for they can neither be bought nor sold at any price.
You can have all the money in the world. You can be a multi-billionaire, but if you do not have your health it means nothing. Your health is the No. 1 important thing in your life.
When you undervalue who you are, the world will undervalue what you do and vice versa.
Nothing's greater in life to see somebody who doesn't have start to value who they are and, as soon as they feel valued, they can change this world too.
You have got to be the masters of your own financial future.
Financial advice needs to change according to what is happening in the economy.
Find $50 a month for savings. No excuses!
I'm a big advocate of a work-for-pay setup rather than an allowance that isn't attached to chores - it's a great way to impart the value of money to your children.
I want to be clear here: It does not matter what you say in your will or trust; the beneficiary document attached to your IRA accounts and your life insurance policy overrides what you say elsewhere. If you want to change the beneficiary, you must change the beneficiary document.
If you can't afford the upkeep of your home, it makes no sense to do a reverse mortgage. You will just end up having to sell eventually when you realize you can't afford the home, and whether you have any equity left after the sale depends on the size of the reverse loan that must be settled.
Credit card issuers and HELOC lenders are like fair-weather friends: They cozy up to you in good times, but when the economy heads south, they abandon you faster than Usain Bolt runs the 100 meters.
