You bring up a good point: by learning to cook some of your favorite eat-out foods, you get the same return for a lower investment. Smart idea!

I tend to keep a list of our expenses per month, and I try to limit our eating-out escapades so we could save up and/or buy something we really need. I usually try to learn to cook the foods we love at restaurants via searching the net, that way we get to eat the food we like without spending too much.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing with us some sound advice about freelancing and on how to earn extra income the smart way.johanna @ GIJoh.comhttp://gijoh.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-69428978775644944902011-01-07T10:01:30.800-08:002011-01-07T10:01:30.800-08:00Good advice, Bryan.

Definitely something to put in action in the year ahead!<br /><br />I value your input. Thanks for stopping by. :-)Jennifer Brown Banksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-68052425272389332502011-01-07T08:34:20.321-08:002011-01-07T08:34:20.321-08:00Jennifer, you're right on, friend. I heard Dav...Jennifer, you're right on, friend. I heard Dave Ramsey say once that most people, "if they make $20,000 a year, they will spend $20,000 a year. If they may $80,000 a year, they will spend $80,000 a year." Most people don't take control of their budgets and live above their means, which causes them to be stressed out most of the time.<br /><br />Learning how to properly keep track of your money is the first step to getting your debt paid off and building wealth. <br /><br />As for the freelancing part, I am learning that goal setting is crucial. Write out exactly how much money you intend to make in a month's time or two months' time or a year's time. I find it makes me structure my marketing to try to make that count. ("For this much, I would need 1 web design, 2 Logo Designs, and 3 Articles.") That works for me. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-64690305553812093292011-01-06T07:00:56.484-08:002011-01-06T07:00:56.484-08:00Thanks, Karen
