Sublime Sunday Thoughts and Musings

avatar

I visited our local nursery the other day. Their floor displays were filled with all sorts of greenery.

I was personally reminded to renew my efforts towards financial independence. I am comfortable now, but I need to step up my resolve.

My desire to become financially independent never wanes- to have a sufficient amount of money to support my living expenses and not need to work for pay or an active job in order to continue living the way I do.

Money does not necessarily equate to happiness, meaningful relationships, or inner serenity. "Money is not everything". Even if having money is beneficial and can offer possibilities, stability, and comfort, it shouldn't take precedence over the pursuit of experiences, meaningful relationships, and personal development. You can't buy health, love, or friends with money. People's principles and values determine how important money is in life.

The cornerstone of prudent money management is a budget. However, the typical monthly budget may appear daunting to some people. Some people might also attempt a weekly budget; similar to a monthly budget, this one has smaller, more reasonable amounts that one has to track and might be more likely to keep to them. Utilizing a spending plan is an additional strategy that gives one control over expenditures rather than placing limitations on what they are unable to purchase.

It may be difficult for others to set aside the recommended percentage of their monthly income. Instead, just try saving more than you are now saving. Simply start putting aside a small amount each month to develop an emergency fund if you're not already saving anything. If you already contribute a specific amount of your paycheck to your retirement account each month, for example, try to increase it by simply 1% to 2% this year.

While traditional savings accounts can give one a feeling of security, they frequently don't yield high interest rates. Alternatively, you may want to think about opening a high-yield savings account or even spreading your resources by putting some money into a certificate of deposit (CD).

Other than the traditional savings and investing in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and crypto, I chose to save in silver and gold.

Inflation is factor that makes gold an attractive investment. Gold has historically been an excellent hedge against inflation, because its price tends to rise when the cost of living increases. Gold is seen as a good store of value, so people may be encouraged to buy gold when they believe that their local currency is losing value. But just like anything else, it is not for everybody.

Wise approach and I agree, even if you can't set aside as much as you'd like at the moment, even upping the game just a little bit will mean growth. Whenever I have a little budget issue due to life circumstances, I borrow from one of my own savings vaults and later put it back with some extra "interest" to make up for the loan lol.

With a little more time on my hands I may do more gardening this year, getting into more greenery, and experiment with different vegetables.

Always, with love 🤗🌺❤️

Sage advice for anyone who is new to the idea of stacking and saving sis! Not to mention, it might help some be able to buy some of those lovely plants you saw at the nursery, lol! But seriously, it is a good idea to plan for the future and for emergencies. I hope those who need to hear this most do in fact, hear it.

Thanks for sharing sis and have a lovely week! Much love, hugs and kisses!🤗😘😍💞🌸 !LADY !LUV !PIMP

Mind refreshing clicks. Yeah I agree money can't buy happiness all the time if we talk about relations, love, peace, loyalty money can't give us all things just the way to live.
That's all are great pretty rounds.

It's good to start investing when one is younger but I think it is important to diversify and put some portion in higher risk that you can bear with to earn greater returns.
