“It’s Better to Want Than to Owe”

We often stretch our finances thin to buy stuff we really, really want.

A new, bigger TV.

If you have to go into debt to buy something then you shouldnt buy it.

Because its better to want than to owe.

Of course, theres something to be said fordoing what works for you.

Generally, though,most of us need more margin in our lives.

Stretching your budget thin to buy something reduces your financial margin, and getting into debt destroys it altogether.

Its a solid mantra to remember next time youre tempted to spend.
