Live a life thats affordable and get clever with what you have.

When I was younger I was so naïve when it came to money.  I spent what I did not have, HP this and HP that. The only wise choice was to buy my home, but I would soon realise that bills would accrual and I would need to change my lifestyle.  When I became a mother and a solo one at that, then the luxuries of nails, hair and make up being done was a thing of the past.  I love these things, what was I to doo.  Ahhh I got wise, I trained as a make-up artist, trained in Hair and Beauty, and when I had my boys, I trained as a Barber.  Yet I may have had to pay for these skills, but I don't need a hairdresser, makeup artist or a barber. I'm free and it was worth my dollars to train.  When we sold our home last year and moved to the North, I got wise with accommodation.  I didn't want to buy just yet, but I didn't want to rent something expensive, so we got cleaver.  We only need a one bedroom, so long as the kids have a room, and a fenced section to play outside, I myself can live like you would in a studio apartment.  It works, it saves so much on rent, we use the spare money on our weekends or save it for the holidays.  You don't have to settle in life, but you do need to make choices that are wise.  Don't buy into the "Buy now and pay later", live a life that is affordable to you, and get clever with what you have - Yourself :)
