#257: The Cost of Waiting (Friday, December 2)

We're already in December, can you believe it?! That means we only have five more Fridays to make some positive changes in our finances, so I'm going to make these five weeks count by providing some actionable idea you can implement every Friday 'til the end of the year!

This week we'll focus on the cost of waiting to save. What is it costing you? For me, every month I buy drinks from the vending machine instead of saving it, it costs me $40. Now that may not sound like a lot, but if I saved that money for a year I'd have over $500. Not to mention that water is a healthier alternative.

I found this wonderful tool called Me Save? on Feed the Pig that can help you figure out what kind of spender you are and how much you could save if you put that money elsewhere.

Use it and let's make these last five Fridays count!
