Pay Yourself First

Pay YourselfOne of my favorite personal finance tips is to pay yourself first. The idea is that you should take any savings money immediately from your earnings and put it into a separate bank account.  I’m saying this because if I wait until the end of the month to save what’s left, I would have probably spent it all.

I think this idea applies equally to your goals. Pay yourself first because, if you pay other people first, then you won’t have enough time left for what’s truly important to you.

There are going to be a few things that must come first. If your goal is to start a business, but you still work a full-time job, not getting fired is your first priority (at least until your business can support you). Same with important family concerns.
