Why is it that money isn’t taught more in school?  Is it that the school board superintendents don’t care?  I don’t think so.  Most of the teachers don’t know enough about money to teach it anyway.  That’s not a stab at educators, I’m just making a point.  The average person isn’t taught about what money is or how it works until the age of 25 or older.

Most people just aren't taught readily enough about finances to manage or multiply them

That doesn’t mean that you don’t have lots of money it simply means that we all can stand to raise our financial IQ.  Of course if you keep reading you’ll see that I’m taking you somewhere.  There is a link at the end of this article that leads to a new book by Robert Kyosaki, Conspiracy of the Rich.  Is their a conspiracy of the rich? Do rich people really know something different than the rest of the population on this planet?  These are questions that are not easily ignored once you hear them.  Money is about more than just having it and spending it! What are you doing to understand money better?

When it comes down to the end of the month do you find yourself having more month and the end of your money? How many times have you thought that maybe someone added a day or two in between pay cycles? An eight or nine day pay week perhaps? Lol… I know, its really not funny but sometimes you just have to laugh at the situation.

But do you find yourself saying “If I can just hang on until payday”? If you’re like me, it’s not because you don’t have a budget. It’s the fact that you don’t stick to it like you intend to. Unexpected expenses pop up or you splurge when you should exercise restraint. Whatever the reason, the end result is the same … Not enough.

So, how can you add more STICK-TO your budget plan? Good Housekeeping offers several tools to help you stay the course and keep your money on track. Read, How To Stick To a Budget to see if the advice could help you.

How about you?
