You Have to Make More Money
Most of the people go to a tedious 9to5 job only so they can get the paycheck at the end of the month and waste all of their hard earned money on useless stuff and it is sad because they are one step away from greatness, all they need is a certain level of economic education and awareness.
Before I get any further you have to understand that money are not evil or whatever bullshit like that someone might have told you but in fact, money can save your life. What people are capable of doing for money sometimes it is evil, and most of them end up stealing or doing nasty stuff for money only because they know no better.
The problem is that most of them spend more than they can afford and don’t save up anything at the end of the month. This is especially seen in the youngsters of today; they work crappy jobs like McDonald's for a few summers only so they can buy a car. Just because they don’t want to take the tram to their meaningless university, where they learn obedience so they can be better “dogs” when the time for a full-time job comes.
Make Money
If you want to change the quality of your life and the life of those around you; you have, by any means, to make money. Saving up is good but if you barely make enough to live day by day what you save will not be consistent, you have to increase your income, produce more.
If you think that you don’t need to make that much money, then don’t you dare whine that you don’t have enough money next time you want to take a trip or even buy some new stuff, or that your boss is keeping you after hours.
A life not lived the way you desire is a life not lived at all, someone wise once said, and I don’t think that anyone wants a job. I don’t believe that there are people who enjoy waking up in the morning and going to work, people that enjoy their one week holidays and the captivity from the rest of the year. Real freedom means that you can go where you want when you want and most jobs don’t offer that to people.
If your job doesn’t produce enough money for you to break free then you need to take another job or a better paid one, you have to create other channels from where the money comes to you. Luckily, you may not need to take that many jobs if you take full advantage of this platform and you pave your freedom here.
Cut Expenses And
Manage your Money
Manage your Money
If at the end of the month you don’t have enough money that’s because you’re spending too much, you’re buying too many useless stuff, if I can recall correctly, around 33% of a man’s income goes to housing, having a roof over your head. That’s a lot of money no matter how much you make. An option you have in this regard is to downsize; if you’re living alone you don’t need a huge flat, a studio apartment should be enough for you.
What happens with the rest of two-thirds of one’s salary? Well, most of that money is spent on needed expenses like food, water, and heating but there’s a big chunk that remains spare.
I get that people spend money on housing and food but what determinates the difference between them being successful and them being poor is what they are doing with that spare cash. Most of them will just reward themselves with useless "goods" so they can feel better after a shitty month, where they sold their souls again by slowly murdering their dreams.
You don’t need to buy a bigger fucking TV or a smarter phone, in fact, you don’t need those at all, and you also don’t need to get new shiny clothes and bling-bling, in your situation you need money.
Conclusion
An idea would be, no matter what happens in a month, to put aside at least 10% of what you make but after a year that will result in only one full salary, which is excellent but not enough.
Not only that it’s hard to save up 10% with an average salary but at the end of the year will not be enough, not even after ten years. In Romania, $500 would be a fantastic salary and to only have that much spare after one year of hard work would not be a pleasant situation.
Luckily for us, as I said above, we have tools like Steem that can forever change our lives by exponentially increasing our income. If people take full advantage of this platform and the opportunities it has to offer they, will maybe, be able to break out of the rat race and live their lives freely.
As a final note, if you’re still in a situation where money represents an issue for you, but you are on Steem you have to succeed here no matter what and as fast as possible. Think about it, when mass adaption comes, and it will, Steem will have millions of opened accounts and the rate of success then will be low as fuck, but if we grow our accounts now, when that happens we’ll already be making enough money.
This is just the beginning of an amazing journey, good luck my friend.
