CHRISTIAN SINGLES GUIDE TO
ONLINE DATING ADVICE
SELF SABOTAGE AND THE
CHRISTIAN SINGLE’S MONEY
However, at some point we have to see that we
are an advertiser’s dream, a country sold on immediate
gratification. We can easily fall for advertiser’s ploys; believing
that we’re not living until we have the latest car, electronic
gadget, or clothes. All messages are aimed at our image of ourselves,
and we just have to see through it and resist. If you have a family,
you can sit down together and explain that there isn’t enough money
for extras now. Ask each of them how money could be saved. Perhaps
children really don’t need new toys or video games, and you have
been fooling yourself into believing they can’t be happy without
them. Children like to feel that they can contribute, and their money
saving ideas may surprise you. Sabotaging yourself by spending more
than you earn sets you up for lack in the future. It has been said
that a frugal way of life leads to great wealth. A budget can
allow for some savings, which will draw interest over time, and give
you security. Living paycheck to paycheck is sure to build fear,
knowing there is nothing to fall back on, should a real emergency
arrive. And you know the trouble fear causes!
