    A Reflection - Can the Careful Use of Our Time Reduce our Spending?

    A Reflection - Can the Careful Use of Our Time Reduce our Spending?

    The saying, "Old ways don't open new doors"  is a good challenge  and I was indeed challenged by this when I was recently on a forced vacation from work when I contacted Covid last week!

    As I lay on my sickbed feeling sorry for myself I began to reflect on my life and work in the light of the world we now live in with the volatile share market, rising cost of food , rising fuel costs, increasing interest rates etc. and my forced sabbatical allowed me to inspect not only how I spent my time but also how time could and how it is used could have an impact on my spending.

    I hope you will enjoy this weeks reflective podcast and be influenced to ask yourself the question - How can I do things better and therefore reduce my expenses (Or increase my income?)

    The Dangers of Having a Personal Overdraft

    The Dangers of Having a Personal Overdraft

    It seems that more and more people are having overdrafts attached to their everyday bank account so that they do not have to "suffer the inconvenience of overdrawing their account or paying dishonour fees" as one bank promotion put it!!
    I think it is more helpful to let people see the results of their overspending instead of giving them a facility that teaches them to overspend!!
