The Foolish Things That We Do

The foolish things that we do with our money. since April 1th is April fools day . I thought that I would talk about some of the things that people do foolishly with their money. Here are a few

A co worker went to a designer shoe sale in Manhattan and spent $ 300.00 dollars on shoes that were originally $1000.00

Buying on the floor seats for a sporting event. Where the seats could run you in the hundreds.

Giving a home contractor the full price of your home renovations before he even start doing the work. And of course he never does the work and you can not find him to ask him about your money.

Spending a lot of money on your kids toys that they will get bored with in 2 to 3 days and want new ones.

Co signing for a car, home. furniture for a friend, relative or partner. if they can not afford to purchase the item with out you co signing for it. Then do they really need it?

Buying little figurines, coins and anything that from The Franklin Mint company. They have cute stuff but you pay for that stuff in 5 easy payments which you do not need to do.

Using the rent to own stores for anything? They overcharge you on the items and if you miss a payment they repossess the item you have rented from them. Just save up for the item you want to buy and use cash to buy it.

I am sure that you can think of many more foolish things that we do with our money. Let's all be less foolish this year with money and try and save it for the stuff that is not so foolish.
