Was published in the monkey of the cube: Success in business and personal DevelopmentIn this article, I propose the? To the? Steps six? that survive financially in a recession. Some believe that the savings for three months is impossible. I think it is not only possible but most easy for most people think. Il? Of VE? I? described six points to financially survive a recession. For some, this will be? easy to do. For others, you need to seriously change your spending habits. Before we begin, however, you should speak with your financial adviser before taking this or any other advice on financially. In conclusion, this? long story but I promise that? well worth the read. # 1: Calculate your total monthly charges required; then calculate your total monthly discretionary spending. Your total expenditure requirements are those that must be paid even if you lose your job. To clarify, your mortgage or rent? expenditure required. Your gas and electric? expenditure required. The drugstores are a necessary expenditure. Your payment credit card minimum is a necessary expenditure. A discretionary spending? all expenditure that you can completely remove without a significant penalty. Cable TV, all members of the pond and meals out are all discretionary spending. What about the services with the cancelation fee? If the fee to cancel? less than the cost to complete the contract, then? discretionary spending, meaning you can liberarselo if needed. Is calculated after the necessary expenses that discretionary aggiungale together to get your expenses. # 2 Monthly total: Assetto the need? of the ll? of? of FatYou? to reduce and be cruel about achieving your goal of saving three – six months of expenses! Examine all your expenses listed as # 1. What you cut or trim? If you can cut spending entirely, entirely the best. However, most of you probably assetter? il? s? of what? gi? l?. Here are ways to reduce. Gas and electricity: – It is the thermostat a few degrees in summer and turns gi? the thermostat a few degrees in winter. Except on heating and air conditioning. – Turn off lights and appliances when not in use. – Turn gi? the heat on hot water heater (just a little? m of? I? of? of? of? argues that no cold showers) that these small changes can add up to a few U.S. dollars a month. Entertainment: – Reduced the number of times you eat out. – Reduced price on entertainment generally. Il? m. of? I? that do not says that? t of? of the can? ha? but the? of fun? pu? you have fun without spending much money? Of course! Instead of going to a movie and fall of $ 20 for tickets and another $ 10 on popcorn, rent a movie and pop some microwave popcorn. ? s? Here for? savings: – Going out to the movies: $ 30 ($ 10/ticket x 2 people + $ 10 in refreshments / popcorn) – rent a movie: $ 10 ($ 5 for the movie + $ 5 for the microwave popcorn). Total savings:? $ 20? ? multiply that times a few weeks and? of? of you? with reference to save some serious money. Cable: Do you need cable? Most will say s?. But you need all those grooves premie? You can live without them for a few months? Insurance: Check with your car and home insurance agent to see if? can raise your deductible. Many times a pi? reduce high deductible? your monthly, quarterly, or annual payments. Credit cards: There? ? a possibility? remote, but if you always paid your bills on time and you are? of? of standing? of? of? of? in good company with your credit card, ask them to reduce your interest rate. Drugstore: Try to make the lunches and dinners that are most Cheap. The casserole, stews and dishes are great examples Crockpot meals that are economical and easy to cook. The cost for service? very low when compared to other meals. Cafeteria?: How many times a week go to Starbucks or some other coffee café? You need? of? t of? don? to cut that out entirely, but to adjust back. If you go every day, go every other day. If you go twice a week, go once a week. Try to prepare your coffee? in the country. That saves money as well. Look above the layer of your spending and see what you can cut and trim. # 3: Calculate your current monthly cash FlowWhere makes your cash go on a monthly basis? At the end of the month, those who have surplus cash left over after subtracting your expenses from your income? There are cash left over or is spent? After you complete item # 1, you should have a good idea of your monthly expenses. Subtract that from your monthly income to determine the? s? of what? left. What to give? a general estimate of your cash flow. However, I prefer a measure pi? precise. Using a software program called Budget Calendar from Mishelle. ? an economic program of budget ($ 14.95 with a free 30 day trial) that? light-years ahead of anything? Of VE? I? never tried. These estimates of money-based software exactly when you get paid and when bills must be paid. I know exactly how much money avr? all day since. Here? a shot of the screen. ? t of? of won? are disappointing. After this analysis, the ll? of? of you? know if there? a surplus or a deficit at the end of each month. One last note, please note include your monthly debt payments. When you do, however, includes only the minimum payment due each month. # 4: Calculate your monthly cash flow after trimming the Fatus the same process described in point # 3 but now calculate your flow of money based on your new estimate trimmed and pi? magro. I hope that now you have a surplus of cash available for savings. Where? t you of? don? you should seriously consider your expenses and make some significant changes. You are likely living a lifestyle $ 100,000 salary about $ 50,000. # 5: I savingThis start? it. Start a store! ? of? of? but what about my mound of debt credit card? ? t of? of shouldn? I pay that off before saving? ? of? of?. No, let me explain why?. Il? s? Let the? assumes that you do not have much debt and savings. And to clarify, the debt is all the debt that is not your mortgage such as credit cards. Assuming that your interest rates on these debts are within a normal range of 0% – 15%, I recommend you pay the minimum amount due on each. Except in the surplus cash payment instead of gi? your credit cards. ? s? Here for? why?. Remember that when you calculated your flow of money, I said that you should include only your minimum payments as part of your monthly expenses. Your three – six months of savings include these minimum payments. Also remember that your three – six months of savings? the continuation of the sea and found a new job. Ci? the means need? to keep what? a minimum. A minimum payment of $ 150 on a credit card? the minimum necessary to get close. If you take your monthly surplus and paid already? a credit card? s? of that? wonderful. But if you lose your job, King of? of? of you? in difficulties. ? better to have six months of savings with the debt? to have less debt but the inability? pay your mortgage. Once stored three – six months of expenses, and then continue to pay gi? your debt. So know with complete confidence and with great relief that if you lose your job in a recession, you are able to pay all of your expenses. # 6 as the minimum necessary: The stay focused, remain resolute and update your budgetYou makes a ? of now? the plan? follow him! Mantengagli always with your budget. Before you spend money on something, consider the estimate. Constantly talking on your budget, you will be reminded of your goal.

If you need to repair the cracks on your car, in the prior notila as unexpected expenditure and records your savings accordingly. If you follow these six steps, you can save three – six months of expenses. Some ths is easy. For others, you need to take some decisions lifestyle. The choice? yours. But for the cause of mind? better to reduce hours that do not have enough money if the unfortunate happens. So this was a long article but I hope that you find important. Above all, stay positive.
