5 things that will make you wealthy by Dave Ramsey one more from me.
1.Have a written budget. You have to have a written game plan with money or you’re going to lose.
2. Get out of debt. When you don’t have any payments, do you know what you’ve got? MONEY!
3. Live on less than you make. In the house of the wise are choice food and oil, but a fool devours all he has. Proverbs 21:20
4. Save and invest. 100% of people who don’t save money don’t have any money saved.
5. Be generous. Follow the 7 Baby Steps and you can be outrageously generous!
And 6. , Buy a home! Long term renting will not create wealth (actually it will but for your landlord). It can be scary but its one of the BEST investments you can make for yourself. And you don’t have to have 20% down - that is an old wives’ tale. And remember the interest rate on rent is 100%.
