Talking Finances ? What are the best things you’ve learned about finances? ** Pay Attention Proverbs 23:23 - Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds; 24 for riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations. 25 When the hay is removed and new growth appears and the grass from the hills is gathered in, 26 the lambs will provide you with clothing, and the goats with the price of a field. 27 You will have plenty of goats’ milk to feed your family and to nourish your female servants. This is like stepping on the scale every day. I monitor my bank accounts every day. You have to know what’s going on. The more aware I am, the less likely I am to spend it. Budgets are good. Count the cost Know what’s going on – both the husband and the wife should know what the obligations are. *** Spend Less *** Save Proverbs 13:11 - Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow. *** Avoid Debt Proverbs 22:7 - The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender. *** Side Hustle *** Communicate *** Count the Cost *** Do Stuff Yourself *** Trust in God Seek first his kingdom and his righteous.
