In a market as complex, extreme and ambiguous as ours, its important to know how to spend and have a good saving habit.
We have put together 5-6 ways to cut your expenses according to your earnings.
1. Reduce your housing Expenses: A shelter is a basic need. However, if the better part of your earnings is spent on a luxurious apartment, you should consider moving out to a less expensive home.
2. Don't buy to keep up: Do not make financial choices you might regret, when you start spending on items just because you want to feel like others, your earnings won't last.
3. Reduce your food expenses: Yes, food is essential for living, but its possible to overspend on food. Remembrance you don't earn much and this should reflect on your food expenses.
4. Learn to be content: The only way you won't be pressured into buying what you don't need is if you are contented with what you have already.
5. Identify Your needs and wants: As a low or medium income earner its important to separate your needs from your wants.

The Law of Demand and Supply For wealth making (Oyedamola Taiwo) For F&K Savings

The Law of Demand and Supply For wealth making. Next to the introduction of economics as a course is the exposition to how the demand and supply rules and moves an average economic system. I am definitely not here to bore you with economics jargon, I want to tilt your mind in a direction it has probably scarcely explored. This is how it works in the goods market; there is a producer on one side trying to make profit by offering a good/service and on the flip side of the coin is the consumer willingly looking for a product to feed his/her satisfaction in exchange for value. The two parties will have to meet and bargain. Before the transaction can be sealed, the basic requirements of the two parties must be met i.e, the producer must earn profit and the consumer satisfied with the product. Now, you have gotten the basic gist, let me exercise your imagination just a little bit. You want money right? I do too! Now, there is an imaginary money land with producers willing to give ou...

Financial Planning: Effective Antibiotic for your psychological health by Oyedamola Taiwo

Depression is a rampant epidemic that has established its root in our society unnoticed. We have heard of suicidal attempts and eventual executions. Many have been in a bad mood at one point or another and were able to walk through it because they found a solution, that’s the lucky group! We have some other set of people who relished in their horrible conditions till it aggravated into a mental disorder that ultimately suggests the suicide option. There are many causes of depression but all are primarily linked to a need-gap left unfilled; the need for self-actualization, the need for success, love, acceptance and so many others.

Whether we like to accept it or not, money provides access to many things that we aspire for. In economics, we describe money as a transaction facilitator. Life is a transaction, we exc...

The Future starts now

The Future starts now, you cannot afford to procrastinate. How do you develop a healthy savings culture? 1. Save first, spend later. Whatever portion of your income you decide to save should be saved first before the remainder is spent. This ensures that you have the mindset that the remainder after saving is the whole amount that is available to you. Thus, if you save 10% of everything you earn, then your mind would believe that you only have 90%, since the 10% “not available”. All calculations would be on the 90%. 2. Have a separate account for your savings. Your savings should be safe from you. The needs and wants of man are insatiable. We also know that whenever there is an increase in income, things to do with money also seem to expand to meet the new amount of money available. Thus, it is necessary to separate your savings from all other funds available to you. It is trite that when access to saved money is too easy, un-saving of saved funds is sure. What to do is to e...
