Winter is coming... and that means increased energy use to heat homes for homeowners and property owners. Everyone has to tighten their belt and pinch pennies to improve their frugal finances in 2024. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://www.bestbusinessbuilders.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Save And Make Money Monthly With This Online Opportunity</a></b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">But some bills are unavoidable and show up in your mail on or your credit and debit card statements each month, cutting into your frugal finances. We all have mandatory monthly costs like utilities cutting into your budget significantly. Your energy bills are probably eating away at your savings and investable income each month with many people feeling powerless to reduce or eliminate them. And even with the extreme increase in energy prices, some states and regions are still having power outages going into 2024!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Exponential Energy Bill Increases</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Energy prices are unfortunately only going one way, and that is way up with almost no end in sight! This is especially true with rising inflation and steep increases in oil and gas prices around the world. A lot of traditional fuel companies have been facing growth restrictions and some countries are being boycotted for their energy, driving up prices further for consumers around the world. Even states and nations proud of their renewable energy initiatives have reverted at least temporarily to natural gas, coal, and nuclear power just to support their power grids so people don't freeze to death. Gas, oil, and electricity are a lot more expensive than they used to be for homeowners and property owners, despite ESG standards being much higher nationwide and worldwide for appliances. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">There is not a lot of price reduction relief in sight despite some stimulus checks in a few areas of the world. Most government safety nets for energy relief and financial protection have ended or will be ending soon, leaving consumers to fend for themselves.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">So, how do you make the most out of your energy, fuel, and utilities to help cut costs each month? Frugal Finance has you covered on smart and simple energy saving methods. Here are 17 top tips to reduce energy use and save money daily along with lowering HVAC costs. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Heating And Cooling Cost Cutting</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Heating and cooling are the main culprits responsible for expensive utility bills. This is also the best place to explore cost-reduction measures for your household or workplace. Ensure your furnace or boiler is efficient with boiler coverage. It would be wise to <a href="https://www.corgihomeplan.co.uk/" target="_blank">check here</a> for available plans to cut costs and improve efficiency with boilers if your home or property has an older one. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Now read the additional 20 top ways to save on your bills and energy usage below. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>20 Top Energy Saving Tips To Lower Your Utility Bills</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Inspect Seals On Doors, Windows, And Appliances </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Heat and cold care escape through the cracks in a matter of milliseconds. To avoid or minimize this, ensure your freezer and fridge are appropriately sealed to trap cold air inside. This also applies to windows and doors. Any seal malfunction could contribute to leaks and end up draining your heat, air conditioning, and/or wallet. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Repair Leaky Ducts </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gaps and leaks within your ductwork can lead to air loss and inflate your electricity bills. Sealing and insulating your air conditioning ducts, ventilation, and heating and cooling systems may go a long way towards lowering your bills. Caulking and seal repairs (or even duct tape) are frugal methods that can help to preserve heat or air conditioning every day to help your utility bill savings add up. You can also use duct tape to close gaps since that is what it is named after, and even purchase some at the local Dollar Tree (even though products now cost around $1.25 instead of $1, plus taxes).</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Set Your Thermostat </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When you head to bed each night, lower your thermostat's temperature to between 10 and 15 degrees. This also applies when you are away from home for work or travels. By doing this for eight to twenty hours every day, you can significantly lower the energy you use to heat and cool your house all year round. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can be able to automate this process using a programmable thermostat or smart home device like NEST, Ecobee, Amazon Smart Thermostat, or Honeywell brand. Now you can adjust heat or AC levels from a convenient app on your smartphone!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Adjust The Temperature Settings Of Your Fridge And Freezer </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">To cut energy costs, make sure you set the temperature of your fridge to 38 degrees and that of your freezer between 0 and 5 degrees. By doing this, you will keep your food fresh. Your fridge and freezer won't have to use much energy to maintain temperature. To make the most of your money, monitoring your expenditure is crucial. Observe trends and spot opportunities you can exploit. This will give you a clear idea of what you need to do to save some cash. Smart appliances and smart phones are excellent at tracking energy use and temperatures.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Water usage is also a crucial consideration for reducing energy and utility use. According to the Energy Department, hot water is the second-placed item driving high utility bills in most homes. Whether in the laundry room or the shower, reducing your hot water usage can significantly reduce your electricity costs in 2024. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Take Shorter Showers </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You may save up to five gallons of water if you cut your shower time by two minutes. You will save money, reduce energy expenditure, lower water use, and free up valuable time! The phrase "time is money" applies to showering for sure. Set a timer if you need to or pretend that you are paying by the minute like in some public showers, because in reality you actually are!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. Install A New Showerhead </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">A water-efficient showerhead can reduce the amount of hot water you use and save up to 2,700 gallons per year. Get a shower head with the WaterSense label, certifying that it meets the Environmental Protection Agency's efficiency criteria. Or a high-pressure showerhead will allow you to take a quicker shower and therefore use less hot water in that way.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7. Avoid Washing Clothes In Hot Water </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Washing clothes with hot water is energy-intensive and only needed for certain garments, bulk items, or stains. If possible, use warm or cold water to do your laundry to avoid the extra heat costs. Sometimes the cold water actually works better anyways!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>8. Repair Leaky Taps </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">No one wants to hear that dripping sound every night. All of those drips add up day after day and night after night. Fix your faucets to save gallons of water 24/7. A quick visit from a plumber or watching a YouTube DIY video should do the trick.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>9. Adjust Your Water Heater's Temperature </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Most water heaters are typically set at 140 degrees. If you lower this default setting to 120 degrees instead, you may save water heating costs by around 10% annually. Leaving town for the weekend? Make sure you turn that water heater to its lowest setting to save more energy. This is especially helpful if you have a small household and don't have to worry about running out of hot water for daily family member showers and baths. You also have to consider dishwashers and washing machines.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>10. Buy Energy-Efficient Appliances </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you are looking for a new water heater, washing machine, or dishwasher, consider purchasing an energy-efficient model to save energy usage for longer. For example, a dishwasher with the <a href="https://www.energystar.gov/products/how-product-earns-energy-star-label" target="_blank">Energy Star label</a> should use 3.5 gallons of water or less every cycle. Some older dishwasher models may use more than 10 gallons per cycle. For appliances that run nearly all day or for weeks like the fridge, water heater, TV, and HVAC system, consider buying energy-efficient models. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The latest energy efficient appliances can more than pay for themselves within a couple of years. Many of them turn off or go on eco-mode when they are unused for a period of time, saving more electricity and money.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>11. Inquire About Discounted Rates From Utility Providers </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">During certain times of the day, you may enjoy cheaper rates for you to do energy-intensive chores, like laundry. Electronics and lighting account for roughly 11% or more of a typical residential utility bill. And if you are a good negotiator, there is always the chance that you could strike a discounted deal with your utility providers. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>12. Change Your Lightbulbs </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can save up to $75 per year by replacing bulbs in the five frequently-used light fixtures with LED bulbs or compact fluorescents (CFL) that have the Energy Star label. The LED bulb option is much better these days if you have the choice and they will pay for themselves in no time. They also don't get as hot so it can actually make them safer in terms of potential burns or fires. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">LED bulbs are so much more efficient than incandescent bulbs that the United States and some other nations are essentially restricting or banning their use. There are much fewer incandescent bulbs for sale now and a lot less in terms of legacy bulb products being produced. This helps to save consumers money, improve energy independence, and enhance overall safety.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>13. Set Up Dimmer Switches </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Dimmers allow you to determine a room's brightness at a sliding scale customized level. This lets you set the mood that suits your needs and saves energy in the process. Make sure to use LED light bulbs that are compatible with dimmer switches to get the most energy reduction and avoid flickering lights at certain dimming levels. Dimmer switches may cost slightly more money initially but overall they will more than pay for themselves on your electricity bills.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>14. Use Smart Power Strips </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For devices that don't truly power off while connected to electricity, plug them into a power strip. This mainly applies to devices with remote controls. High quality power strips also provide additional safety with surge protector capacity which could prevent overloads or fires in certain cases.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>15. Conduct An Energy Audit </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Utility providers will often perform energy audits to determine <a href="https://finance.yahoo.com/finance/news/15-easy-ways-save-energy-132918525.html" target="_blank">ways to cut down on your energy usage</a>. There are many other methods to reduce power use that you may not have thought about but an expert could identify quickly. Often times energy audits are free due to government energy efficiency programs. Your local and federal government wants you to be more efficient with your energy use and has an incentive to help you. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>16. Install Solar Panels Or Wind Turbines On Your Property</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Want to generate your electricity for free? Interested in selling your excess electricity to the local power company? Then renewable energy generation is your ticket! Solar energy panels or wind turbines / windmills will generate your power and help you save countless costs while going green. You may even qualify for government tax credits to save even more money while cutting back on energy! And the power company in your area is legally required to buy your excess electricity, so you will end up getting a credit or check each month from them. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>17. Go Off The Grid</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Want to take energy savings to the extreme and live off the land? If you want to save even more money, consider going off the grid as a homesteader for full self-sufficiency. Buy a piece of land in a remote area for a bargain price and work it yourself while setting up wind, solar, and minimal fossil fuel sources to generate energy. It can be a risky move, but also rewarding in many ways. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>18. Get A Hybrid, Electric, Or Great Gas Mileage Vehicle </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">While this tip isn't technically for saving energy with your home, you can still save plenty of fuel by switching to a more efficient vehicle. Some efficient gas-powered vehicles get even better mileage than hybrids, like compact sedans or Smart cars. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>19. Purchase Electric Tools </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Using electric instead of gas-powered tools can help reduce energy costs as well. With a lawn mower, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, weed whacker, or snowblower you can eliminate gas use while lowering noise levels. Your neighbors will thank you and so will your gas bills!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>20. Recharge Your Batteries </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Batteries cost a lot more money these days than they used to, and still power many aspects of your home and its devices. When you recharge batteries, you only spend a fraction of the cost compared to buying new ones. You also keep a lot of toxic waste out of landfills!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">It is time to go green so you can save some green and maintain your frugal finances! Save energy and money more in 2024!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Energy Efficiency Excellence </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When it comes to living frugally and <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2021/02/solar-energy-vs-traditional-panels-power.html">sustainably, energy efficiency</a> is essential.

Get Life Insurance </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Having an adequate life insurance policy is essential for ensuring the financial security of most families. But what is whole life insurance and why do I need it? Whole life insurance protects your spouse and family in the event of an unexpected death. If you pass away, your family loses your income. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Unlike term life insurance, whole life insurance policies last your entire life. These policies don’t expire as you age. That means your family has even more monetary protection. If you pass away in your 90s, your spouse or children still receive the benefits. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Whole life insurance is also inexpensive compared to some other forms of investing. Making your monthly payments on time is all you need to do to financially protect your loved ones in the event of and unfortunate accident or illness. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Boost Your Savings and Emergency Fund </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">According to a <a href="https://www.federalreserve.gov/publications/2019-economic-well-being-of-us-households-in-2018-dealing-with-unexpected-expenses.htm" target="_blank">study by the Federal Reserve</a>, the average American doesn’t have enough saved to cover a $400 emergency. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you fall into this category, it’s not too late to start saving. There is some debate about how much of your income you should save for emergencies. While there isn’t a one-size-fits-all number, you want to be comfortable. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Let’s say your expenses total $2,000 per month. If you lose your job, how long could you live off your savings? Having $10,000 in savings could float you through five months of unemployment. Saving $208 per bi-weekly paycheck for two years could get you to $10,000 in savings. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Once you reach your goal of $10,000, don’t stop the savings there. Remember that there are plenty of other important things to save for. Keep up your savings rate and shift your money into retirement savings, investments, and your child’s education. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">While an emergency fund is important, saving for retirement and investing is arguably even more vital. Should you need more than what is in your emergency fund, you still have these assets to pull from. If you never need them, they are growing at a much higher rate than a savings account. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Create a Budget </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you are thinking there is no way I can save any money each month for your families, it is time to take another look. Budgeting isn’t about coupons and envelopes of cash. It is about going through your expenses and really looking at how you’re spending your money. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Take some time to go through your bank account. Look at how much you have coming in as income. Next, look at what expenses you have. Fixed expenses are bills you have to pay each month. This includes your mortgage, student loans, and car payments. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Next, look at the expenses you can trim some costs if needed. You might not even realize you have been paying for three different music subscription services. If you aren’t using things such as group fitness classes or virtual cooking lessons, take the time to cancel them. It is the frugal thing to do for masterful money management!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Once you have a clear picture of where your money is going, it is time to see what is left. If the answer is nothing, take another look. Look at your grocery bill and how much you spend on coffee or eating out. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Your food and entertainment spending are likely areas where you will be able to pull down some extra savings. Set a goal for each of your savings buckets. You should always have one for retirement and financial emergencies. You may want more for things like a new home and your child’s education fund. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Make a Financial Plan </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Once you have your budget in place, it will be easier to tackle your next steps. Consider your financial goals. What does it mean to you to have financial security for your family? </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Some people, want to pay off their debt while others prefer to see a large emergency fund. Whatever your goals are, get them down on paper and start shifting your budget accordingly. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Pay Off Debt </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Debt is expensive. The less debt you have, the less interest and finance charges you’re paying. With less debt, you will see lower interest rates on cars and homes. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Without credit card debt, you’ll drop expensive monthly interest payments as well. Your credit score will improve, and you will have a better debt-to-income ratio. Pay down your debt and you will be that much closer to better financial health. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. Save for Retirement </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Retirement is one of those non-negotiables when it comes to savings and financial planning. There comes a time in everyone’s life when they aren’t able to work anymore. Think about how you’d like your retirement to look and what you will realistically need. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Make a plan to invest in your future. If you have an employer-funded 401(k) plan, start by maximizing this. An employer match is free money you should take advantage of. Next, consider opening your own brokerage or IRA account. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Set up automatic withdrawals from your checking account into these investment accounts. When the money comes out automatically, you won’t miss it. The money goes right in each month and you can sit back and watch it grow. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you like to see a visual of how you’re shaping up, there are a lot of great apps you can use. You can put in all your accounts and funds and they will automatically add up your wealth and net worth. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">From here, you can see what that looks like when you retire. Is $500 or $5,000 enough to live off of each month? Remember that any wealth you accumulate can also be left to your spouse, children, and grandchildren to take care of them after you’ve passed. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7. Provide Your Family With Finances for College </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When you first have a baby, college can seem far away. You will be surprised at how fast the time goes. How much you should save for college is often debated by financial experts. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">With the rising costs of education, if you have multiple children, paying for all their college tuition will be expensive. A 529 Plan is a <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2023/06/what-to-consider-before-applying-for-tax-relief.html">tax-advantaged</a> way to save for college. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Instead of burning yourself out trying to pay for it all, aim for a third. Paying for a third of their education means your child handles a third and the final third is paid through grants, scholarships, or loans. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Remember that your child should also be involved in this process. There are work-study programs and on-campus jobs that provide students with income to offset the cost of their education. Get them involved in the planning process as well. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Also remember that paying for their entire education isn’t a burden you need to take on alone. Whether you pay for 100% or a few thousand dollars, there’s no right or wrong answer here. Starting young, however, gives you the best chance to accumulate some savings when they reach 18. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>8. Set Up a Will or Estate Plan </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Once you have children, if you don’t have a will, it is time to get one. An estate plan is another security to make sure your final wishes are clear. When you pass away, your loved ones won’t have to fight over or sort out what asset is going where. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">These are especially important if you have young children. You can include medical directives, and who should care for your children in the event that you and your partner should pass away. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">These aren’t only for the super-wealthy families and estates. If you own a home or have any money in your bank accounts, you qualify for an estate plan and a will. Make sure everything is lined up for your spouse and children after you have gone. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you have also had more than one spouse or children from different marriages, an estate plan is a great way to avoid any tensions or confusion. Everyone will know your wishes and will understand what to do with real estate, investments, and assets which improves overall family security when it comes to money management. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>How To Improve Your Family Security and Finances </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Family security offers some much-needed peace of mind. It is a great feeling knowing you are on track for your frugal financial goals. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For some, financial security means paying for their child’s education. For others, it is a large emergency fund or retirement savings. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Whatever financial security means to you, it starts with getting control of your finances. You can’t change where your money is going if you don’t know what you are spending it on. Get your priorities in place and set your plan in motion for your family's financial future. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">From life insurance to estate plans, it is never too late to start taking advantage of these programs and securing your family’s financial future.

<div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img alt="nad+ supplementation aging benefits cellular health" border="0" data-original-height="386" data-original-width="640" height="386" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBMmuIv3oP2lNqo7VXRJuJIgsFYnIM0vOQ-jCNetQp50WUY90gJHIwexBkvLhhIYL5PSk3Zt-zQ0BB-2J-ChDPGsdwFG8WpDN9r4ZbwD9RC9qinHclOvSNbNZIQMjIUug67wbANNw5IVF0tPw119k3w2MigOQApoI_ezHT37V8XmiOVU5SqlZLEAY/w640-h386/Health-Benefits-NAD+Supplements-aging-cellular-health.jpg" title="nad+ supplementation aging benefits cellular health" width="640" /></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Aging is a natural process, but science and nutrition are continually finding ways to ease its impact on our bodies. One promising avenue of research is the role of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) in cellular health and longevity. This coenzyme is found in all living cells and plays a critical part in metabolic processes. Resources like <a href="https://www.nad.com/" target="_blank">nad.com</a> provide comprehensive information on this coenzyme. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">While NAD+ is a critical enzyme, its levels decline with age, leading to various age-related health issues. NAD+ supplementation can potentially help replenish these declining levels, thereby supporting better health outcomes. Below, we explore the remarkable benefits of NAD+ for aging and cellular health. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>The Science Behind NAD+ Supplementation And Anti-Aging </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The connection between NAD+ and aging hinges on its ability to enhance the activity of sirtuins, which are sometimes referred to as "longevity genes". These genes protect cells from dying, regulate inflammation, and manage DNA repair—processes that are at the core of slowing down the aging process. By supplying the body with NAD+, sirtuins can perform optimally, potentially leading to a healthier, longer life. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Studies involving NAD+ precursors have shown promising results in age-related conditions such as muscular degeneration, neurodegenerative diseases, and metabolic disorders. For example, mice supplemented with NMN demonstrated improved age-related metabolic decline and increased longevity. This has provided a scientific basis for exploring the effects of these supplements in humans. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Clinical trials on NAD+ supplementation in humans are in progress. They evaluate not just its potential anti-aging effects but also its impact on diseases related to aging and metabolism. While the mechanism in human biology is complex, the research aims to establish a firm connection between increased NAD+ levels and improved health span. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Improving Metabolic Functions Through NAD+ Boosting </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the standout features of NAD+ is its ability to support and improve metabolic functions. It is intricately involved in redox reactions, which are fundamental processes for converting food into usable energy. Improved metabolism is not just about having more energy; it also involves better regulation of blood sugar levels and reduced fat accumulation, which are important for preventing metabolic diseases. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Enhancing NAD+ levels through supplementation has shown potential in improving insulin sensitivity and preventing metabolic abnormalities. This could be particularly beneficial to those with <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/diabetes/basics/type2.html" target="_blank">type 2 diabetes</a> or other metabolic syndromes. With better cellular energy production, the body can function more optimally, supporting overall health and wellness. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Beyond these metabolic pathways, NAD+ also influences circadian rhythms, which control sleep patterns, hormone release, and eating habits. By stabilizing these rhythms, NAD+ might help to align these functions more harmoniously, which could improve metabolism and potentially lead to healthier aging. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>NAD+ Supplementation For Enhanced Energy And Brain Health </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The search for increased vitality often leads to the realm of cellular health, where NAD+ supplementation is steadily gaining recognition. Feeling energetic is a direct result of robust cellular energy production, and with NAD+ being pivotal to this process, it forms a crucial element in addressing fatigue and low energy levels. The link between higher NAD+ levels and improved energy is one of the reasons many seek out these supplements. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">But the benefits of NAD+ go beyond just a boost in physical energy. Cognitive functions are also positively influenced, as the brain is one of the most energy-demanding organs in the body. With improved mitochondrial function, essential for cognitive processes, NAD+ can support brain health, leading to better concentration, mental clarity, and memory. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Age-related cognitive decline is a major concern, and research suggests that NAD+ might play a role in protecting against <a href="https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/24976-neurodegenerative-diseases" target="_blank">neurodegenerative diseases</a>. While more studies are needed to confirm these benefits in humans, the prospect of supporting brain health through NAD+ supplementation is an exciting development in neuroscience and gerontology. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Altogether, the prospects of NAD+ supplementation present an exciting frontier in the bid to support cellular health and combat aging. With ongoing research, the hope is to refine our understanding of how to utilize this coenzyme to its full potential, offering a brighter future for those seeking to preserve vitality and well-being as the years progress.</span></div></div>Bootstrap Business Bloggerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11309217762655257874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3338935981453634.post-72466069293218137712024-03-11T23:13:00.002-04:002024-03-12T10:01:57.898-04:00Steps To Create Your First Trading Strategy<div style="text-align: center;">

Anyone can learn about trading from many sources. If you want to do profitable trading safely, you must need to have a trading strategy. A trading strategy helps you to stay alive in the trading game although you are having to lose some trades. Learning about trading is not an easy task but making the first trading strategy that will give you a profitable result is very hard. You need to start by having a realistic goal and fixed some trading tools and indicators that will help you to find potential opportunities. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">In this article, we will guide you with a few steps and we hope by following them you will be able to create your first very own trading strategy without following some other trader. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Market Ideology </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The first thing you must need to consider when you are making the <a href="https://smartforexlearning.com/how-to-create-a-forex-trading-strategy/" target="_blank">first trading strategy</a> that how this trading market operates and you just need to have the answer to certain questions. The question is “What is the reason that you think that you can make money from this market?” If you don’t have the answer to this question a read more about this market until you have a clear answer to that. After that try to learn both fundamental and technical analysis without giving any effort to learn just one. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Another thing is that you cannot think trading as a getting rich quick scheme. When you think like this, you must remove this thought from your head. A new trader always needs to try to make his first trading strategy very simple rather than making in the complex. Making a complex strategy for the first time can be the reason for avoiding your trading strategy when trading. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Choose A Market Where You Want To Trade </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">There is a lot of markets where you can apply your trading skill but first, you just need to fix one market where you will trade. The trading markets are Forex, Equities, Options, Stocks, and Futures. If you prefer the CFD market, you need to study and understand this market like what are you buying and selling from a currency quote, how leverage and margin works and how you can calculate them. If you choose to trade in the Equity market, you must need to have clear knowledge about the blue chip and penny stock securities. So, fixing a market for trading helps you to put your attention just to one market and you can dig deep about that market. The <a href="https://www.home.saxo/en-mena/products/cfds" target="_blank">elite traders</a> always suggest you trade in a specific market. The do so because they know it will improve their execution process. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Choose Your Trading Time Frame </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Before you start trading you just need to fix a trading time frame according to your personality. The time frame depends on the type of trader you want to be like if you are a scalper, you like look for signal in 5 minute or 15-minute chat because it will be more effective. On the other hand, if you want to be day trade and don’t want to keep your trades open for multiple days. You must need to look trades <a href="https://timebankmedia.org/four-amazing-benefits-of-trading-the-higher-time-frame/" target="_blank">in a higher time frame</a> like 1 hour or 4 hours or in a 1-day time frame. There are also a few traders who like to keep their trade open for multiple days even some cases for weeks or months to get their potential results. So you must consider your preferred time frame when you are making a trading strategy. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Fix A Set Of Tools </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Your trading platform will provide you with many tools and indicators which will help you to find the information that you need to open a trade. You cannot use all the tools and indicators. Rather, you must make a set of tools and indicators work to your advantage. Although they will automatically calculate risks we suggest that you to at least know how these tools and indicators work. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Determine Risk </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Whenever you invest some money in your trading account, you must need to fix an amount which you are ready to lose through trading. You will not surely lose it but it will help you to measure your risk-reward ratio according to your trading balance. So fixing a risk-reward ratio is very important to having a profitable trading career. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Find Forex Fortune</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">These are the key things that you need to consider when you are making your first <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/01/tips-making-money-online-trading.html">trading plan</a>.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Facebook is the largest social media platform in the world by far and earns billions in advertising revenue. With the recent health crisis and upcoming recession having left us all in a state of shock, 65% of brands expect to cut their ad spend in 2024. Facebook expects to lose around $15 billion from previous estimates in worldwide ad revenue. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Bigger brands may still manage to invest in paid ads to attract traffic. However, it is natural for small businesses to expect a significant decline in organic reach amid a low budget scenario. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Despite the fact, the increased time being spent by people online can be your opportunity to crush the competition in the small business market. Provided you have the access to the right marketing strategies for Facebook.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let’s take you through 12 Facebook marketing techniques that will not burn a hole in your pocket and actually help you convert. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Use Third-Party Tools </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you want to take your Facebook marketing campaign a step ahead, a third-party tool can come to your aid. It may help you plan your posts or create your contests or sweepstakes, which further attracts users to your app. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For example, SocialPilot enables you to schedule your Facebook posts and make them visually appealing by using GIFs and videos from their stack. You can publish these posts on your page or in your FB group at the best times, and boost them for increased engagement, therefore, generating more leads. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Such a tool ensures consistency and flawlessness in your posts. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Use SocialPilot to curate popular content, simply by entering a hashtag or a keyword. Also, track post engagement using the tool’s Facebook Analytics feature later to eliminate any loopholes. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Organize A Facebook Watch Party </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Considering the fact that people are likely to leave <a href="https://99firms.com/blog/facebook-live-stats/#gref" target="_blank">165% more comments</a> on FB Live videos than on on-demand videos, you must not waver from organizing a Facebook watch party. It allows you to bring people on Facebook to your live or recorded video to watch it together in real time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What happens next is that you get to make more connections and induce more interactions, which results in your increased following. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Watch parties can be leveraged to announce a new product or launch a webinar. To ensure that your webinar is being attended by a large group of people, you can share the link to the Watch Party in your email campaigns or blog posts. Also, you can get instant feedback from your target audience on a new product that you are introducing. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Announcing a product is just the first step. From there, you can go ahead as much as you want to lure your target customers, for example, launch a watch party to tell people how to use the product or how to set it up. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Create A Group </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Facebook groups are a great choice to create and convert more prospects. First things first. Groups are for free and let people share their views, comment on topics of their interest, discuss with other people, and make a buying decision all by themselves. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Before <a href="https://www.socialpilot.co/facebook-marketing/how-to-create-facebook-page-group" target="_blank">creating your Facebook group</a>, you ought to understand the difference between a Facebook group and a Facebook page. While you can use your FB page to promote your products or services, you should not use your FB group to serve your promotional needs. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Groups are for people who have a similar passion or interest and who want to discuss it. Create one only if you want to feed your target customers with what they are looking for, or let them post content in your group. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Leverage Micro-Influencers </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Always remember: For a small brand, less is more. Therefore, let’s leave the bigger, the better for big businesses. And jump on to micro-influencers, that is, influencers with a niche engaged following (approx. 10,000 or less) that provide you with the very same results. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When compared with macro-influencers, it is easier to access and work with micro-influencers to build your brand awareness and website traffic. This is because micro-influencers have a small, targeted following, which you can leverage to sell something for real. To your fortune, connecting with micro-influencers, you can actually boost your return on investment. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip: </b>To reach the right micro-influencers, first determine what you want to achieve—whether you want more traffic to your website or improved engagement or better conversions. Thereafter, no force can pull you back from reaching the micro-influencers you need to grow your business. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Boost Facebook Posts </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">No matter how much effort you put in, organic reach still, somehow, seems to remain on the back burner. This is where a boosted post comes to your rescue on your Facebook page. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Though budget might be your biggest concern at this point of time, you can still afford to boost your posts, which doesn’t cost you a fortune. When you boost a post, it paves a way for targeting quality leads and growing your post engagement. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For no more than two pennies, you can significantly add to the number of clicks you get. All that is required at your end is to choose your target audience and you’re halfway through. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> If one of your boosted posts has witnessed more than expected engagement or has become redundant, choose to cut short the planned time frame or boost an alternative post to make your spending worth it. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Engage In Other Groups </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Once you have created your group, it is equally essential to promote it on your page. Besides, don’t forget to cross-promote it. Join other similar groups and mention about your group there, that is to say. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Entering related topics in the search bar will help you find which other groups to post in. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Then, engage in the selected groups; find a post that interests you and leave a meaningful comment that initiates a discussion. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Don’t just start promoting your group or business the moment you join a group. Go through any rules the group might have before posting anything in it. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><i><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Worthy Reading:</b> <a href="https://quantummarketer.com/buy-facebook-followers/" target="_blank">16 Best Sites to Buy Facebook Followers, Likes & Views (2020)</a></span><br /></i>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Send Out Newsletters </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Newsletters suck up a lot of your energy, effort, and time before they are finally ready. But distributing your newsletter via email is not enough; you need to share it on Facebook too. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All your customers may be your followers on social media, but not all your followers are your customers. When you share your newsletter on a social platform, you amplify your chance of getting more sign-ups on the newsletter and converting your only-fans into loyal customers. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Use <a href="https://moosend.com/templates/" target="_blank">free newsletter templates</a> on Facebook to create and share a newsletter, and analyze whether your page is actually witnessing engagement or not. If not, you can work upon your existing strategy to improve it. If it is, you can direct your focus on something else. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>8. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Let Customers Talk About You </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">According to most of the people, not even 50% of all brands post authentic content on social media. This is where you get the opportunity to share only reliable content and prove your credibility. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">More than what you post online, people trust content posted by other people, who could be your customers or any Facebook user. Therefore, let people talk about your business in your or other groups and leverage this user-generated content to drive your purchases. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Ask people for reviews and recommendations to develop a sense of trust among your audience. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Host hashtag contests backed by enticing prizes on your Facebook page to encourage your fans to like and share your content, which further boosts your sales. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>9. <span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Create A Poll </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">To further increase your engagement and conversions, create polls that make people vote for one of the many options. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Creating a poll, you provide your followers with a choice and they unconsciously engage with your post. Even if the product is unrelated to them, they tend to vote and provide their feedback, making the results go public. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Introduce polls that make people feel informed and entertained at the same time, while you get to strengthen your brand recognition. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>10. Work On Perfecting That Video </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It’s now easier than ever to create interesting and interactive videos. So take this time to take your Facebook marketing game a step further by putting your mobile to some good use. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Or, use third-party apps to quickly create for free short clips that are thoughtful and intriguing enough to make users stop scrolling for a while. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> People already like to consume content via videos. Look for the type of content they like to consume, design it, and grab their eyeballs with that content at the right time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>11. Tell Lots Of Stories </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If there is anything that is currently making the world go crazy, it is the 24-hour-lived stories that are being shared incessantly on Meta social media platforms, one after another. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The more short-lived the stories are, the more these have created a sense of FOMO in each user. This is another reason why you should create engaging videos of a few seconds and keep sharing them in your stories with the possibility of these being viewed by millions of people. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip:</b> Don’t forget to add elements like geo-tags and stickers that engage more people. For a highly targeted strategy, keep a check on who is watching your Facebook story. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>12. Bank On Effective Call To Actions </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Success comes to those who never fail to add an effective call to action, be it in their blog posts or Facebook captions. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let your <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/03/how-to-grow-your-business-online-using-social-media-marketing.html">target customers on social media</a> know immediately what they need to do as a next step after seeing your Facebook post, not deserting their decreasing attention spans. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pro-Tip</b>: Keep your Facebook CTA short, crisp, and cunning, such that people don’t find it tough to follow and feel the urge to click on it.</span></div>

If you feel like you don't have enough money to meet your basic needs, it is very easy to feel helpless and alone with your beaten down budget or small savings stash. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="http://www.bestbusinessbuilders.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Save Money And Make Money By Working With This Company</a></b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">According to recent data, around 80% of Americans say that they are struggling financially, so you can rest assured that you are in good company. Much of the United States and global population struggles with personal finances in one way or another, especially with public health crises and inflation causing additional strain. Financial struggles are even gripping the upper middle class in the U.S. and much of the world due to severe inflation and economic volatility. The global economy and the personal finances of billions of people is looking rather grim right now.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the major reasons why the majority of people are in such a poor financial state is lack of education on money management and a limited understanding of budgeting. If you don't know your numbers and can't put a plug in your spending, you are setting yourself up for financial failure. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Unfortunately basic financial education just isn't something they teach at a lot of schools or even colleges. That is starting to change out of necessity, but most students even with above average intelligence have very little knowledge of money or budgeting.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Learning how to create a monthly budget won't solve all of your financial stress, but it will certainly make it easier for you to feel secure and afford basic living expenses. And every little bit of extra budget-friendly financial security helps these days in a time of economic turbulence coupled with rampant inflation.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Read on to learn how you can set this frugal budget and ensure that it works for your specific financial needs. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6 Top Tips To Create Monthly Budgets That Save More Money</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Use a Budgeting App To Stay On Track</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For those who have trouble keeping track of a lot of papers, budgeting apps can work wonders. You can conveniently enter your information into budgeting mobile applications including your necessary expenses, income, changes to your finances, and more. Pretty much all of these apps for budgets connect with your bank and do the math for you by figuring how much you need to allocate where. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">PocketGuard is <a href="https://www.pcworld.com/article/3286807/pocketguard-review-budgeting-financial-app.html" target="_blank">one of the best</a> free apps that connects your credit, checking, and savings accounts to better your budget planning. It detects your recurring bills and compares them to your income before showing you how much you have remaining for other expenses. From there, you can master your monthly budget for groceries and household needs that exist outside your recurring bills. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">One of the greatest things about PocketGuard is that while it categorizes your expenses automatically, you can also create custom categories for the best budgetary plans. This lets you include the things that are important to you within your monthly budget to find areas of improvement and savings. You also never want to forget about any bills so you can avoid late fees or surprise final notices. It also reminds you to consider <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2023/06/what-to-consider-before-applying-for-tax-relief.html">tax fees and relief options</a>.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Write All Expenses And Bills Down </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">In addition to having a budgeting app, you will want to <a href="https://www.consumer.gov/articles/1002-making-budget" target="_blank">write everything about your budget</a> down on paper. You can place this above your desk at home or on the wall beside your calendar. When you see it, you will remember how much you have to spend and where your money should be going to. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Writing things down also has been proven to improve memory and fiscal fitness. It forces your brain to process things in a more detailed way. Writing the details of your budget will help you to keep it in mind throughout the remainder of the month, even when you are at the store with a dead cell phone battery and no physical list to look at. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Consider The Expense Essentials First </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Before setting a budget, you need to consider your recurring payments like rent, utilities, insurance payments, student loans, and routine medical bills. You can't stop these bills from coming and missing them will ding your credit score and accrue interest. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The next budgetary thing to think about are essentials like groceries and household items (toilet paper, pet food, etc). Be realistic about what you can afford and make sure that you don't end up in a situation where you have no food at the end of the month. Cheap grocery stores like Aldi, Dollar Tree, Dollar General, Family Dollar, Costco, BJ's, Price Chopper, Sam's Club, and Wal-Mart are a great way to save money when shopping for everyday items at retail shops. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">And keep in mind that you can still eat healthy on a budget if you follow <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/p/frugal-diet.html">The Frugal Diet</a>, so there are no excuses to eat junk food in the name of saving money.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Include Entertainment Money </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When creating your budget, make sure that you don't forget to add at least a bit of spending money. You need some cash to go out with friends if you want to maintain your mental and social health. You also will want to treat yourself to a new book, video game, or just some takeout food every once in a while. While minimalism and frugality help budgeting significantly, you probably won't be living like a monk either. We are all human after all and can't penny pinch 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year with our budgets.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you don't have a specific amount of money set aside for things that you want, you are likely to become frustrated and pull from other necessary areas of the budget. In the end, you will probably wind up spending more on entertainment than you would if you would just put it into your budget in the first place. If you need to save even more money on your entertainment costs, consider using a <a href="https://www.myfrugalbusiness.com/2019/09/top-ten-most-popular-best-torrent-sites.html" target="_blank">top torrent</a> to download media free of charge.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Don't Forget About Savings </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you're struggling financially, you likely feel as though you are surviving rather than living. You are probably sick of feeling like you are just barely keeping your head above water while living paycheck to paycheck. You likely are wondering how to eventually buy a condo or travel around the world so that you can start living your best life. The answer to making this happen is simple: saving money. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">This is a challenge for most people, but you need to set aside at least a few dollars a week to go into savings. Even if it's just $10, you will end up with $40 per month and $480 per year. This might not sound like much, and you should invest more if you can, but it is definitely better than nothing. A penny saved is a penny earned, and money saved by paying down debt or earned with compounding interest is more than just a penny! We all have to start somewhere when it comes to smarter saving and better budgeting.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. Pay Cash Whenever Possible </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When you swipe a credit card for all of your expenses, it is easier to charge more than you have in your bank account. It doesn't feel like you are spending real money. It is even worse when shopping online with saved payment information. You need to remind yourself that every dollar counts and that when you buy something, you are investing actual cash into it. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Using cash also makes it a lot easier to track how you are spending money in your financial budget. You can place it into envelopes that are marked with what you need to spend it on at the beginning of every month. This can help you conceptualize how much you have to spend where. Physically finding, dividing up, and paying with money helps keep you more accountable than using credit cards and digital payments so prevalent and frictionless today.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you see that you absolutely need more <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2012/07/my-surviveon35-35-weeks-food-budget.html">money for groceries</a> or a similar necessity, you can place more money into the grocery budget envelope next month and see if that works. The bottom line for budgeting is that paying cash makes it easier to conceptualize your finances on a concrete and realistic level. This will help you maintain your fiscal fitness and frugal financial foundation. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Credit cards do have their upsides if your finances are in order and you use them correctly. They can help to build your credit and earn cash or point rewards when used properly. Just make sure to make credit card payments in full and consistently. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Beyond How to Create a Monthly Budget </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">While budgeting is a challenge for nearly everyone, it is completely possible with a bit of planning and foresight. Now that you know how to create a monthly budget that works for you and your household, it is time to start looking into other aspects of your frugal financial affairs. Financial security and finance freedom is the goal!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Check out the Frugal Finances tab on our home page for more tips like those you have read here today.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are tired of stressing about your finances or living from paycheck to paycheck, it is time to take control of your money. Frugal people have several habits that help them live a happier lifestyle. By embracing these 4 thrifty behaviors, you will see your money situation improve. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Be Proactive </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">First, you should take responsibility of your finances. If you don’t, you only have yourself to blame. Proactiveness involves understanding that you are responsible for the direction that your life takes. You are not affected by your environment – you control it. You can apply this habit by taking the first step and committing to controlling your money. If you ignore the situation, it will only get worse. Spend some time looking over everything, including your income, budget, expenses, income, and debt. Find out where your money is going and budget it better through frugality. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Get Out Of Debt </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Many people do not appreciate the advice to avoid debt until they are swamped in it. A lot of people only pay the minimum on loans. However, frugal people get out of debt as quickly as they can. One method to do this for multiple loans is the debt snowball. You choose one loan to focus on, whether that is the one with the highest interest rate or the smallest debt. Once that is paid off, you then snowball the money you were previously paying on the next loan. The psychological benefit of paying each one off is a tremendous motivation to keep going. If you have student loans, you can often save money by consolidating them to <a href="https://www.earnest.com/resources/student-loan-consolidation" target="_blank">improve your finances</a>. That will give you more for your debt snowball. Another benefit is that you will get a longer time to pay them off. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Set Goals </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The most effective way to achieve your goals is to have the desired result in mind, no matter what the obstacles. If you do not visualize what you want, then external circumstances and other people can influence your life since you’re not influencing it yourself. Instead, start every day knowing what you want to accomplish and how to get there. First, you should define your goals. There are many reasons that people embrace frugality, and you need to figure that out for yourself. Do you want to build emergency savings, <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/03/retirement-savings-goals-retire-secure.html">save for retirement</a>, or become a one-income household? </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Create A Spending And Savings Plan</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Next, decide how you will get there. You will use your budget to do so. However, you should be aware of obstacles blocking your progress. That could include credit card debt or poor financial habits. For example, perhaps you spend several dollars a day eating out because you are hungry. Instead, you could have snacks in your car to prevent impulsive food purchases. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Make Finances A Priority </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Figure out how effective your financial management is. Perhaps you don’t spend enough time taking care of your finances because it always seems like there is something more important to do, whether that is spending time with friends or working. However, if you are spending more than you earn, your finances are negatively affecting other areas of your life.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="how to start hvac business" border="0" data-original-height="267" data-original-width="599" height="284" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiKe8kjNPTv6R78z09gBhuYo00Dgw7RdFaU8jiBsADpdA8yNpn21CF5vCeJaJZkvd0Jx9A5nTu5ICOjgANxpob7BOnQLMyWbfiXHrZUIjIrob1qFKmTkL-pGSNJZmwSQqK1BBAYXJTi/s640/how-to-start-hvac-business.jpg" title="how to start hvac business" width="640" /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">According to Payscale, HVAC technicians earn, on average, $23 per hour. You may be earning this rate or more per hour. While it is easier to stay with your current employer, can you imagine how much you could earn by starting your own HVAC business? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You could become your own boss and earn a lot more than at your current job. It may be intimidating to start your own business, but only if you don't follow the right steps. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Want to learn how to start an air conditioning business? We have got you covered. Here are the five steps to starting an HVAC business today. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Write A Business Plan </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The first step to start a successful air conditioning business is writing a business plan. You will detail everything from your market to your marketing plan. A good starting point is defining what areas you plan to serve. While covering more areas may seem like a great idea, you need to take into account the cost of servicing these areas. It's better to start small and focus on providing the best quality of service. Keep in mind that offering great service will motivate your customers to recommend your company to their loved ones. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Budget Your Startup Costs </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Before going for it, you should also budget all the startup costs to get your business up and running. Consider everything from state licensing requirements to your marketing strategy. While it may cost you a pretty penny, you should consider obtaining certifications such as EPA and North American Technician Excellence. These certifications can give your business a competitive edge over your competitors. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Meet Your Local Licensing And Permit Requirements </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Depending on your location, you may need to comply with certain local licensing and permit requirements. An example is how air conditioning business owners in California need to pass the C-20 test to operate. In this state, you'll also need to obtain an HVAC Contractor license to start your business. To make sure you meet your local requirements, you should consult your state agencies to obtain insight into the minimum requirements. Don't forget to double-check with your city and county offices as well. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Set Up Your Office </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Making your business look professional starts with setting up your office. Depending on your state regulation, you may be able to set up a home office instead of renting a space. As your business grows, you may consider leasing a warehouse to keep your tools and business vehicles. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Launch And Market Your Business </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">After setting up your office, it is time to launch your business and start helping clients. Consider consulting an HVAC marketing firm to build your website and market your business. These experts will help you generate leads and turn your company into a household name. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Can You Start A Successful HVAC Business? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can start a successful HVAC business if you do your homework and follow our step-by-step guide. Before pulling the trigger, you should research your market to learn as much as you can about your competition. How can you make your business stand out? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Make sure to take these details into account when starting and launching your business. If you are unsure about the best approach, you should consider consulting attorneys, accountants, state agencies, among other experts. Covering your bases will set your air conditioning business for success. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="how to set a digital marketing budget frugal online advertising budgets" border="0" data-original-height="439" data-original-width="640" height="438" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgt_w5i3G2qSmtz1fkTMULtkD_GN1DsW0GD88LVZrQrTGV12UEaa2i8KZMM8B3UzOBkQLchuKU4x1QQUBzerpMh2GeoGHyny5RsvVlvGy7G3uZJVsJNA061In2Ab09zYBteyMQurNIv/s640/how-to-set-a-digital-marketing-budget-frugal-online-advertising-budgets.jpg" title="how to set a digital marketing budget frugal online advertising budgets" width="640" /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">Marketing budgets aren't always easy to create or stick to. Advertising costs can rise and martech software rates usually only go up. Research shows that most businesses dedicate around 20-30% of their total budget towards marketing. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">However, each business is different, and you may find it difficult to decide how much you need to budget. This is especially true when deciding how much you need to spend on digital marketing, as there are so many tactics to choose from in online advertising. To determine which tactic to use you first need to identify the target market zones with <a href="https://www.maptive.com/feature/heat-mapping-tool/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">heat maps</span></a> from your location data.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Below you will discover some suggestions that will help you create a digital marketing budget for your business. Use these tips and <a href="https://www.myfrugalbusiness.com/2018/08/most-helpful-digital-tools-software-marketers-startup.html" target="_blank">leading digital marketing software</a>, and you will know how to attract customers, without depriving the other parts of your business. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's begin setting your digital marketing budget: </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Decide What Your Goals Are </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Before you can set a concrete digital marketing budget, you first need to decide what your goals are. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is because your goals will determine the level of competition you will face. And the level of competition you face will determine how much you need to spend. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Suppose you want to acquire more customers with the <a href="https://neilpatel.com/what-is-google-adwords/" target="_blank">help of Google AdWords</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can use the Google Keyword Planner to discover how much existing advertisers are paying to target certain keywords. You can then take these figures, and use them to estimate the amount of money you'd need to spend on your frugal online marketing campaigns. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This is just one example of how you can use the competition to determine how much you need to spend on your frugal online marketing campaigns. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can adopt a similar approach for any digital marketing method. All you need to do is look at what the competition is spending, and you then have a rough idea of how much you need to frugally budget for digital marketing. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>How Flexible Is Your Approach? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It is worth remembering that some marketing tactics will cost more than others. For instance, you'll generally find that <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesagencycouncil/2019/05/23/11-agency-pros-share-the-features-of-an-effective-linkedin-ad/#39f2b5e860bd" target="_blank">LinkedIn Ads</a> are more expensive than Facebook Ads. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">So, if you are struggling to create an affordable marketing plan, maybe introduce some flexibility to your approach. You may really want to run PPC ads, but if you can't make the numbers work, then it's best to go for an affordable alternative option. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, if you are looking for affordable marketing ideas, you will have to be creative. You might need to run an influencer marketing campaign, or you may need to host some events that help generate brand awareness. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Such approaches might not provide the kind of ROI you would experience when using traditional marketing methods. But they are often a good way to help you generate your first set of customers so that you can eventually move onto more expensive methods. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Do You Know What You Are Doing With Your Digital Marketing? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you don't know much about digital marketing, there is a good chance that you might end up wasting some of your marketing budget. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">That's because you might allocate funds to a marketing method that isn't a good fit for your business. You may also ignore things like 'conversion rate optimization' thereby limiting your ability to squeeze a lot out of a small budget. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Thus, if you are a digital marketing novice, it can be a good idea to hire a digital marketing agency like <a href="https://www.myfrugalbusiness.com/p/best.html" target="_blank">Blogger Outreach Agency</a>. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In doing so, you can put experts in charge of your marketing budget. This can allow you to achieve great results, even if you don't have much to spend. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Do You Know How to Create a Digital Marketing Budget? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You should now understand how you can create a frugal digital marketing budget for your business. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Developing a <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2019/09/creative-media-marketing-ideas-boost-company-brand.html">marketing</a> budget is hard, and so there is a good chance you might not get things right the first time around. If this happens, you will need to take a step back and determine what went wrong. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Luckily, <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2019/09/how-to-market-a-small-business.html">frugal digital marketing</a> can provide you with a lot of data. You can, therefore, use this data, to determine where your campaigns went wrong, and how you can change things for the better. </span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Making enough money these days is not always easy if you aren't in the MLM industry. In fact, Forbes says almost 75% of the United States workforce not doing network marketing are living paycheck to paycheck right now. It is looking like that trend will continue in 2024 as well due to the continuous economic challenges for non-MLMers and those without affiliate marketing side hustles. Whether you want to be your own boss or just start a side hustle with high upside, multi-level marketing and direct selling is a smart way to go while staying frugal.</span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><b><a href="http://www.bestbusinessbuilders.com" target="_blank"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span>Join My Top MLM Opportunity Today</span><br /></span></a></b>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Why Join An MLM Business?</b></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">If you are one of these struggling people living paycheck to paycheck, you need a way to make more money every month. Starting your own business is always an option for those with an entrepreneurial spirit, but getting started in the first place is challenging at best. It can be expensive to start a top traditional company that is profitable in 2024 aside from MLMs, especially with increased inflation or supply chain disruptions.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Joining a multilevel marketing (MLM) company or direct sales opportunity in 2024 is a great alternative and more people are seeing fantastic MLM success rates every day. Multi-level marketing can be your side hustle or a full time job with limitless income opportunities. MLM, also known as network marketing, gives everyone a chance to build a big business even on a frugal budget in 2024. You can also achieve the highly coveted passive income and multiple revenue streams with multi-level marketing and direct selling. </span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">What other opportunity can you start for $0-300 and realistically make 6-7 figures worth of income within 1-2 years while working mostly online? The answer is none, aside from network marketing and maybe high-ticket affiliate marketing opportunities. MLM, direct selling, and affiliate marketing have a little risk but they are almost unparalleled in their risk to benefit ratio and frugal startup costs. You could literally go from rags to riches with network marketing or become a millionaire within 3-5 years if you put in hard work daily... along with a little luck and the right MLM company behind you. Network marketers are positioned strongly for profits heading into 2024!</span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>But Which MLM Company Should You Join In 2023 Or 2024?</b></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">There are hundreds of top MLM companies out there (and thousands overall) with more popping up each month. There are CBD oil MLMs, crypto MLMs, forex MLMs, health product MLMs, fitness MLMs, and fashion MLM companies just to name a few popular niches.

It takes more than an up-and-coming network marketing company and a product to help you recruit a large team and earn major commissions. MLM success takes more than a few months of hard work and a little luck.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">You will need a combination of marketing, branding, content production, and sales savvy to sell your MLM product or service along with recruiting for your downline. Best industry practices like social media marketing, email marketing, SEO, blogging, vlogging, PPC, event planning, and other advertising tactics will be the difference maker between a successful stint in MLM and a frustrating failure. The more tools and skills you can utilize, the higher your chance of success will be in network marketing and direct selling. And sometimes you have to spend a little money to make money.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">While the majority of network marketing business has transitioned online, the power derived from word-of-mouth referrals and well-timed phone calls can make all the difference in your frugal MLM journey. Sometimes you have to do what your peers and competition <i>aren't</i> doing to avoid becoming white noise. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">It can certainly help, especially in the beginning of your MLM journey, to take advantage of your warm market. That means politely but assertively pitching your network marketing opportunity to friends, family, coworkers, former associates, and other acquaintances you feel comfortable discussing with. A few recruitments to your downline and product sales can help you build confidence to go after the cold market and build on your initial momentum. Your warm market won't last forever when you are working in multi-level marketing. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">In the end though what you really want is an MLM company to provide you with high-quality and customized landing pages that offer high conversion rates. Auto-responder email marketing software will help convert more leads and upgrade more of your downline team members for greater network marketing success with less effort. This goes a long way to boosting your wealth and health long term in multi-level marketing!</span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">Regardless of which methods you utilize to build your MLM business, make sure you prioritize building your own personal brand first. That way if your chosen MLM company fails, you need to switch, or you want to branch out you have an established personal brand separate from a single network marketing business. This is a lesson most new MLMers learn the hard way, if they even reach that point. You must put in the work to build up your personal brand, it is called netWORK marketing for that reason! It is also called multi-LEVEL marketing because you have to level up your efforts for increase profits for 2024-2025.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Major MLM Companies Conclusion</b></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">There are even more top new MLM businesses to consider joining in 2024, so keep your eyes peeled for upcoming network marketing companies launching!

Visit an eyelash extension salon to get the best-looking eyelashes in your life! </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Extensions Are Better Than Makeup </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For people who actually value quality and long-term effect, Dubai eyelash extensions are the best choice, and that is why you want them to accent your eyebrows or makeup choices. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Save Time </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Putting on mascara every day can eat up a lot of time in your morning routine. But with eyelash extensions, you skip that step, saving you several minutes each day. This extra time can be used for other stuff or just for chilling out a bit before your day starts. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Lasts A Long Time </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Eyelash extensions stick around for a while – like four to six weeks – if you take care of them right. But mascara? You have to put it on every single day. So, with extensions, you get to enjoy pretty lashes without all the fuss of doing it over and over again. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Looks Natural </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Quality extensions can quickly make your eyes look naturally beautiful. Unlike mascara, which can sometimes make your own lashes look clumpy or fake, eyelash extensions are added one by one, making them blend in with your own lashes. They make your eyes pop without needing a lot of makeup. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Stays Put In Water </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Eyelash extensions can handle getting wet, so they are great for swimming or working out. But if you wear mascara and get it wet, it can smudge or run, which is not a good look. With professionally applied eyelash extensions, your lashes stay looking awesome even if you splash around. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>You Can Customize </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When you get those extensions, you can pick how you want them to look. You can pick the length, thickness, and also curl that suits you best. Your lash specialist will help you decide what style works for your beautiful eyes and makes them stand out – whether you want a subtle change or a big wow factor. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Trust Your Eyelashes To Professionals </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can’t experience real quality without visiting the best eyelash extension in Dubai.

They use tools that are sterilized and materials that can be thrown away after, so there is no risk of getting any infections or bad reactions. You can trust that the environment is all good for your eyes. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Top-Quality Products </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Salons in Dubai use really good stuff for your eyelash extensions. They use high-quality lash extensions and adhesive products that come from trusted brands. These products are made to be gentle on your eyes and keep your lashes looking great for a long time without causing any harm. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Personalized Advice </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Before you get your eyelash extensions, you will have a chat with the technician. They will talk to you about what kind of look you want and check out your eyes and lashes to see what will work best for you. They will suggest the right style and length that will make your lashes look amazing and fit your lifestyle.

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Did you know that everything is negotiable in business and in life? This is true about negotiations in all aspects of your world today. It pays to negotiate, debate, and even argue to ensure you are getting the best terms at all times. </span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://www.livegoodtour.com/BusinessBuilder" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Here Is How To Build Your Own Big Business</a></b></span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">But this past year only 30% of workers negotiated their salary with their employers. Most entrepreneurs don't negotiate their prices and rates with customers or clients. Many people are hesitant to negotiate, not because they don't think they are worth it or deserve more, but because they don't know where to start. If this sounds like you, you have come to the right place to improve your arguments, debates, and points.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Read on for 10 top negotiation tips that will help you get what you want in any situation. Whether you are trying to get a lower insurance premium or a raise at work, these ten effective negotiating strategies can work for you. </span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span>10 Top Ways To Improve Your Negotiating Skills</span><br /></span></b>
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">1. Approach With Positivity</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Some people assume that to be a good negotiator, they have to go into every conversation with guns blazing. In reality, though, you are more likely to get what you want if you remain calm and approach the situation from a positive place.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Instead of getting on the phone riled up and ready to yell about your increasing cable price, try starting the conversation in a polite, courteous way. The person on the other end will already be in a better state of mind and more inclined to assist you. That is how you negotiate to dominate!</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">2. Do Your Research</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">It is always helpful if you go into a negotiation feeling prepared. Do some research before you enter the meeting or get on the phone. Look up what other people in your position are earning or find comparable insurance rates from other companies in your area.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you have this information readily available, it will be easier for you to make a strong case for yourself. Jot down notes beforehand so you don't forget any important details. Practice your negotiations ahead of time if you can as well for a higher chance of success. Negotiating can be nasty so you need to be prepared for any question, counterpoint, or even insult during your quest to argue your case.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">3. Know What You Want</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Have a clear goal for yourself when you begin negotiating, too. Know what kind of salary you want to earn or what you want to pay for your cable.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This will help you to be decisive and confident. It will save you from getting a "deer in the headlights" look, too, when the person working with you asks you what you would like to earn or what it will take to get you to stay with their company. It pays to know your numbers when negotiating!</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">4. Listen More Than You Talk</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Are you a nervous talker? Do you tend to chatter during stressful situations, such as negotiations? If so, this negotiation tip is for you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Make an effort to listen to the person on the other end of the conversation more than you talk to them. Ask open-ended questions to keep them talking, too. This helps you learn what they're looking for, and it will help them to feel respected.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">5. Be Willing to Walk Away</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Never start a negotiation without options. You need to be willing to walk away if necessary.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are counting on this job or you are in desperate need of a lower interest rate, the person with whom you are negotiating already has all the power. You need to have a backup plan in place or another option that you can pursue instead. This helps to give you leverage and makes you more valuable to the other person. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">Desperation is obvious, so you must be willing to walk way to win the negotiations.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">6. Don't Rush</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Remember that negotiations can take a long time. Don't go in expecting the other negotiator to give you what you want right away without first putting up a fight.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It might take hours or even multiple conversations over several days for you to get an outcome that works for you and the other party. Be patient, though, and trust that you deserve what you are trying to get from them. If you don't rush them, you will have a greater chance of seeing a positive outcome.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">7. Show Them What You Have to Offer</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Be clear about what you are bringing to the table, too. This is especially important during salary negotiations. If you want a higher salary, you need to show your employer what benefits you provide to the company.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Come in with concrete details regarding the ways you have helped the company to grow and the value you provide. The more specific you can be, the better.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Don't be wishy-washy, either. Know your worth and value and stand by it. If you don't believe in yourself, why should your boss give you a raise?</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">8. Always Tie a String</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sometimes, during a negotiation, you will have to make compromises. Before you give anything away, though, make sure you are getting something in return. In other words, make sure there are always strings attached.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you can't get the lowest price possible for your cable bill, consider accepting a slightly higher rate. Make sure they throw something in to sweeten the deal, though, such as additional channels. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">9. Don't Fear Silence</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you already identified yourself as a nervous talker, this tip will also work in your favor. In addition to listening more than you talk, don't be afraid of silence and gaps in the conversation. Instead, use them to your advantage.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are quiet and pause for a moment after you receive an offer, the person with whom you are negotiating has time to second-guess themselves. They might hear that the offer is not ideal and be more willing to give you something better, all because you paused before responding.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">10. Don't Take It Personally</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">It doesn't matter if you are trying to get a quote for a lower insurance premium or want a higher salary. In any situation, remember not the take the other person's behavior personally.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you get offended or emotional based on the way they are acting or something they say, you will have a harder time implementing these other negotiation strategies. You will also be less likely to get the kind of outcome you are wanting. It pays to develop a thick skin during discussions, debates, and decision-making.</span><br />

Are you one of these people in debt or in a cycle of bad spending habits?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Whether you have gotten yourself into debt or simply find that you spend more than you earn, choosing to live frugally can save you a lot of headaches and stress. Along with helping save you money, living a frugal lifestyle also has a positive impact on the environment, your community, and your happiness in life. Frugality can be fun and effective when it is embraced and optimized. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you are really ready to change your spending habits, check out our top 10 best frugal living tips to save money and balance your budget for 2024. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Top 10 Best Frugal Living Tips To Live Lean And Prosper</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Take Advantage Of Coupons And Discount Codes</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Before you head to the grocery store, check your Sunday paper and go online to look for coupons for food and other supplies you need. Often, your <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2012/07/my-surviveon35-35-weeks-food-budget.html">grocery store will have its own savings program</a> that lets you clip coupons online. Otherwise, you can find online coupon websites that allow you to print offers for everyday items. Don't forget to look online for coupon codes that you can use for frugal online retailers as well. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can also easily find offers and discount codes for local restaurants, service providers, and more. Couponing is key for frugal living long-term, and the savings can be invested elsewhere.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Shop Around For The Best Deals On Everything </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The best frugal tips and tricks focus on making sure you don't pay any more than necessary for what you need. This means you will want to browse the sales ads before you head to the store and take advantage of any special offers on everyday necessities. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For those large purchases like electronics and appliances, use the internet to your advantage. You can often enter a product name into Google and see the frugal prices for many retailers in one place. Also, keep in mind sales days like Black Friday and Cyber Monday when you can save big when shopping frugally. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Don't Always Buy Things New, Go For Used And Factory Refurbished Instead</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Rather than heading to the store to buy an item you need, consider alternatives like buying used or even borrowing. For example, rather than buying a brand new car, consider looking for a reliable used car and help avoid taking on a car loan and to lower your insurance. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can also find used items like clothes, furniture, toys, and electronics through thrift shops, garage sales, second hand stores, and auctions. Don't forget places like your local public library where you can borrow books and DVDs and save money. You may also find that friends and family can lend you everyday items that they don't need to help you save even more money. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Get Creative To Reduce Your Living Expenses </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you need help paying bills, that indicates you should look into cutting your living expenses as much as possible. Good places to start include your transportation and utility costs. For example, you might consider giving up your car to travel cheaply by bus or train, or you could simply bike or walk more often to cut down on gas costs. Using less water and adjusting your thermostat can also go a long way toward <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2022/02/top-energy-saving-tips-save-money.html">cutting your electric and water bills</a>. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you struggle to afford housing, consider downsizing or even renting out one or more rooms. You can also look into income-based housing options to help get assistance with your bills. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Grow Your Own Food Frugally</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If you want to cut down on food costs and get some enjoyment in the garden, growing your own food can be a good way to practice frugal living. You get the benefit of choosing the specific foods your family will enjoy and can avoid using some of the harmful chemicals you might worry about. You will just need to prepare to put in the effort and time to plant, care for, and harvest your crops. Depending on where you live and the season, you may need to grow food indoors in a sun room or greenhouse. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Growing your own food also takes time along with a lot of trial and error. But if you can grow your food like a frugal fanatic, it can help make a dent in your food budget amid rising food prices.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. Earn A Side Income To Enhance Frugality</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">One of the other frugal living ideas to consider is to boost your earnings with a <a href="https://www.leanstartuplife.com/2018/05/side-hustle-personal-train-clients-gym.html" target="_blank">side gig</a>. Whether you want to work from home or in your community, you have many options to make money and can get creative. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">For example, you might consider turning your crafting or gardening hobby into a business where you sell your products to others. You can also look into options like getting paid to deliver groceries, drive people around, or work part-time at a local store. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7. Get Cheaper Health Care </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Whenever you need to see a doctor or fill a prescription, check your insurance plan and shop around to get the best deal. For example, sometimes you can book an online doctor's appointment for minor issues and avoid paying a hefty urgent care fee. Even if you do need to see a doctor locally, you should consider a second opinion if you get told you need an expensive procedure. You can also use top tools and services to find the cheapest prescriptions and even locate pharmacies that fill certain prescriptions for free. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When in doubt, try and use a pharmacy discount card like GoodRX or SingleCare as well that can be found free at pharmacies or medical centers nationwide. If you are buying over the counter medications or dietary supplements, be frugal and buy the store brand or generic options. When you buy brand name medications or branded supplement products with the same exact ingredients, you are really just paying extra for marketing. It is almost always the same exact ingredients or medication (check the label to make sure) but you don't have to pay for the brand name. This improves your frugal finances and fiscal fitness.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>8. Buy In Bulk And Save A Bundle</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">While you might find it less convenient to haul larger quantities home, you can potentially save a lot if you buy items like food, medicine, and other non-perishables in bulk. You will also rest assured you are making a more environmentally friendly choice. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">First, you will often pay less per unit or ounce on products bought in bulk, even if you buy name-brand products. Second, you save in terms of not needing to make as many trips to the store to buy the same items. With the high price of fuel these days, it is a <a href="https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/personal-finance/articles/90-of-americans-say-they-have-frugal-habits-here-are-some-worth-adopting/" target="_blank">smart frugal trick</a> to cut gasoline or diesel costs.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>9. Try To Do Small Repairs Yourself </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Although with helping you gain handy life skills, learning to do small fixes yourself saves you money and can bring some convenience. For example, you can take a course on car repair and learn to do common maintenance tasks without paying for labor at a car shop. A true frugal living fanatic will also watch videos online to learn skills such as trimming their family's hair, doing minor home repairs, and making your own cleaning products. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">When deciding to try something yourself, do keep in mind your safety and confidence. Trying to fix an electrical issue in your house can put you in danger and cause more expensive problems down the road, for example. So, know when to call a professional while <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-frugality-got-its-groove-back-11576630808" target="_blank">living your best frugal life</a> and when you can safety DIY. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>10. Work Out At Home With Frugal Fitness </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Gyms and personal trainers can be quite costly. You can save a lot of money each month and still get the same health and fitness results by working out at home frugally. All you need are items around the house, a little floor space, your own bodyweight, and maybe some inexpensive exercise equipment. For under $100 you can purchase a frugal exercise mat, set of dumbbells, several resistance bands, and a physio ball. <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2012/12/top-25-youtube-fitness-channels-2012.html">Fitness YouTube channels</a> are free as well.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">You can also find plenty of free resources on exercise and nutrition online to help save on healthy workouts and food. <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/p/fitness-videos.html">Frugal Fitness TV</a> helps you get in shape at home or while traveling on any thrifty budget.

<br /><span style="font-size: large;">
Hey Frugal Fitness Fans I have an excellent grocery store savings plan for you today! As an elite cheapskate and poor twenty-something, I knew I wanted to take the #SurviveOn35 Challenge of surviving and thriving (eating healthy) on a $35 food budget for a week. Why $35 for the weekly food budget spend limit? Because that is about equivalent to the amount of government assistance a typical impoverished individual might receive, often in the form of food stamps. This challenge sheds light on the very serious hunger, health, and poverty problems we have in the United States, other first world nations, and all over the world. </span><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">While there are some critics of the challenge, I think they are missing the point and that it is an excellent educational opportunity benefiting some great causes such as food banks and the Cooking Matters organization. If you couldn't tell from my websites and videos, I have always been very Frugal and I am used to making the best out of minimal supplies. Sometimes this has been by choice or habit, but most of the time it has really been out of necessity just to survive in a tough world and a tough economy. I have always made it my mission to prove to others that they can in fact eat healthy even while on a very tight budget.<br /></span>
<br />

<br /><span style="font-size: large;">
I have never had or made much money, and have often earned at or below the legal poverty levels for annual income. Please understand that I don't take this challenge lightly at all or consider it a publicity stunt. This is an accurate depiction of my life nearly every week of the year. I empathize greatly with others that struggle to pay basic bills and hope to help those that are even more financially distressed than myself. </span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: large;">I think my purchases during this $35 weekly grocery challenge are excellent examples of foods and products containing large amounts of lean and complete protein, fiber, whole grains, antioxidants, heart healthy fats, micronutrients, and electrolytes as well as maximizing longevity, portability, and simplicity. I even made sure to hit all of the stores in one 4 mile drive so to not waste time or gas.<br />

<br /><span style="font-size: large;">
My approach to eating on a very small budget seems to be significantly different from most of the other participants in this program. While I am all for tons of fruits and vegetables, I also take the macronutrients and calories very seriously. Also, as a man and a natural bodybuilder / powerlifter, I require more calories than some other participants and I am also focused on minimizing bodyfat while maintaining as much lean muscle as possible (survival comes first though). That means enough protein and healthy fat. I am usually a 165 pound man so I require more calories and protein than some of the other entrants, but everyone has different genetics, goals, time and resources for cooking, and food preferences for a $35 per week food budget.<br /></span>

Also, I am a minimalist when it comes to meals and recipe ingredients. I like it quick, simple, and on the go if possible. Minimal time, preparation, and cleanup, are very important when I am spending a lot of time working to try and make ends meet. So you won't find extremely complex recipes or meals here, just a lot of healthy snacks and simple staple healthy meals, designed for eating small meals around 6 times per day. And yes, like Jerry Seinfeld before me, I like cereal and breakfast foods at all times of day and therefore utilize a lot of (Kashi) cereal and oatmeal! I like versatile foods and I like snacking foods so there are plenty of those in here that fit that description along with being healthy and cost-effective for a frugal diet in 2023.<br /></span>

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Nutritional Strategies Utilized To Eat Healthy With Cheap Groceries</span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><u><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

So as I mentioned earlier, I have all of these foods chosen for specific nutritional reasons in addition to their low cost to hit my $35 weekly eating budget. It also matters how you eat them and pair them up. I eat 6 times per day, spread out, never a huge amount of calories at once, and usually getting a good mix of complex carbohydrates, lean protein, and heart healthy unsaturated fats in each meal. I consume more calories in the first portion of the day when my metabolism is at its highest. A lot of the food choices that I made have relatively low GI (Glycemic Index) values which means they won't spike my blood sugar and provide long-lasting energy throughout the day. They also have a lot of protein, fiber, and heart healthy fat in them to keep me feeling satiated. These simple yet effective strategies help translate to staying full, energized, lean, and healthy!<br /></span>

The 2 gallons of skim milk allow me to have over 18 oz of milk per day for excellent sources of complete protein, calcium, Vitamin D, and potassium. The Kashi cereals provided plenty of high quality whole grains for complex carbs, fiber, protein, antioxidants, and pretty low amounts of sugar and fat. The spinach gave me several salads throughout the week and providing Vitamin A, fiber, and antioxidants. The cans of tuna, chicken, and turkey gave me cheap lean additional protein for my salads. The fat free cheese was also used on the salads for more lean complete protein and extra calcium and vitamin D. I even had some left over after salads and just ate it out of the bag by hand! The coffee was for some extra daily caffeine (with cinnamon and skim milk) to enhance metabolism, and so was the green tea which also added high amounts of the antioxidant ECGC twice daily. The JIF Natural Peanut Butter, sunflower seeds, and roasted peanuts provided plenty of heart-healthy unsaturated fats, fiber, micronutrients, and protein. The bananas and apples both provided antioxidants, fiber, and electrolytes. And finally, the sweet potato chips and honey wheat sticks provided some snacking options that were low in sugar and saturated fat (and also another salad topping). </span></div>

So I used up a lot of things by the 7th day but I still have plenty of left over Oatmeal, Instant Coffee, and Green Tea (oh and my landlord pays the water bill... well not hot water but you know what I mean haha)! I also had a bit of fat free cheese that I just finished by hand right out of the bag, because I am classy like that! These are all super-frugal items that will last you a long time and get you plenty of bang for your buck!<br /></span>

Although I love the products, I think I should have eliminated the Kraft Fat Free Cheese or JIF Peanut Butter, and 1 of the Kashi Cereals, to have freed up about $5.75 to be put towards more salad and additional fruit variety. I still had a good week of nutrition and plenty of fiber / antioxidants but in hindsight I would have made those adjustments. This would have also helped if you were watching your sodium intake or trying to eat more of a Paleo diet. And lastly, I would have utilized that extra .48 to buy another banana!<br /></span>

<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">
This past week was certainly another great experience in my Frugal Life. Although I am always on a very tight budget, this week really made me tighten my finances and lifestyle to fully empathize with those that are in even worse financial situations than myself. I didn't indulge in some of the "extras" for food products that weren't completely necessary so it certainly got me more disciplined. I walked to stores and meetings even more often than usual and tried to give back to the community what I could spare. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">I would like to reiterate that this is a very personal matter for me and really hope that it has helped to educate and inspire you to improve your nutrition, work as best you can with the budget you have, and to help the impoverished and hungry communities of the world.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">HCG diet is a raging diet trend these days. People who have not seen results after years of diet control and exercise have experiences fabulous benefits with this wonderful <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/ways-lose-weight-healthy.html">weight loss option</a>. As a result, thousands of them are making a beeline for the HCG approach. Even as the popularity of this particular weight loss program is surging, there are many questions that people have. Basically, this program is a combination of HCG hormonal medication and a low-calorie diet. The medicine is to be taken in the form of injection or drops, though the latter is more popular. On the diet side, a calorie count of 500 calories a day is the limit that the dieter has to adhere to. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Together, these strategies lead up to a miraculous loss of about one pound a day. Now that the basics of HCG are clear, you would probably be interested in finding out more before taking up the plan. Would you like answers to some of the most common HCG questions? Here is a list of questions and answers: </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 1. What Is HCG? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">HCG or Human Chorionic Gonadotropin is a <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2011/11/your-questions-answered-pro-hormones.html">pro-hormone</a> which is produced naturally in human beings, both men and women. However, it is produced in larger amounts during pregnancy. The primary function of this hormone is to stimulate the hypothalamus to regulate the metabolic function of the body. It is to be noted that metabolic function is directly related to fat burning, which has a direct impact on weight loss. The HCG used for weight loss plans is the form of a synthetic version, which is created in sterile laboratories. The dose of the hormone used in weight loss injections and drops is extremely small in comparison to that used for fertility- related treatments. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 2. Who All Can Take An HCG Diet Plan? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Any healthy male or female, who may be overweight, can safely take up an HCG diet plan for safe and effective weight loss. It is still recommended that you consult a physician prior to starting the diet, dietary supplement, or <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/free-gym-upper-back-rear-deltoid-workout.html">exercise plan</a>. Even though you can get the HCG drug without a prescription, it is always better to seek the guidance of an expert before initiating the diet. Pregnant women and nursing mothers should not take this diet. Also, it is not recommended for those with BMI value below 20. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 3: What is the optimal weight loss that can be achieved with this plan? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">HCG is regarded as one of the most effective and fast weight loss plans. Most prospective dieters can often times expect a conservative average <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/probiotics-weight-loss.html">weight loss</a> of .5 to 1 pound per day, though the amount varies from person to person. Some people are able to shed as much as 3 pounds a day with the plan. Food and recipe choices adherence to the protocol and the level of activity can also influence the amount of weight a person loses while following the diet. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Q4: Is it possible to keep the weight off even after the plan is done? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Most dieters experience a drastic decrease in their appetite after the HCG diet. Moreover, their eating patterns and behavior would have changed. This makes it the right opportunity to maintain the weight loss with the right eating habits and a healthy lifestyle. Just including a minimum amount of exercise in the daily routine can make all the difference. You can opt for brisk walks, yoga or cardio exercises according to your preference. HCG diet resets your Hypothalamus and boosts your metabolism. Additionally, you feel fuller with smaller portions, which prevent overeating. So there is no reason to worry as a majority of dieters are able to keep the weight off even after they are done with the diet plan. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 5: What is the logic behind the 500 calorie?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">In addition to the HCG drops, you need to adhere strictly to the 500 calorie daily diet protocol as a part of the HCG diet plan. The drops stimulate the hypothalamus to increase the metabolism and mobilize the fat out of the body’s fat storage locations. This means that not only the calories consumed are burnt up but also the stored fat is nullified by the action of the hormone. While daily consumption is cut down to only 500 calories, the hypothalamus is still continually releasing the stored fat. The body is effectively operating on a much larger number of calories per day, which results in such <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/05/weight-loss-shortcuts.html">rapid weight loss</a> with the diet plan. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 6: Will I feel hungry on the 500 calorie diet? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It is normal to experience mild hunger during the initial days of the plan. This feeling will, however, pass by the second week and you will probably be satiated even with small portions. This happens because the fat stored in your body is being burnt by the hypothalamus and there are plenty more calories circulating in your system than the amount that you are consuming. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 7: How are the HCG drops administered? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/02/is-fruitarian-diet-really-healthy-weightloss.html">HCG</a> drops are the easiest way to take the hormone as most people would not want to opt for injections. These drops are taken sublingual that is below the tongue. The right dosage is about 8 drops which is to be taken thrice a day. It is advised that you stick to the recommended dosage to prevent side effects and get the optimal results. You may miss a dose but there is no need to take a double dose the next time. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 8: Are there any side effects of HCG drops and injections? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Side effects of HCG drops or injections taken for weight loss have been reported in rare cases. On the other hand, HCG injections used for fertility treatments in larger doses are associated with side effects such occasional headaches and pregnancy symptoms as well as a number of other issues. However, the side effects are seldom manifested in dieters because the amount of hormone administered to them is considerably lower. Occasionally, they may come across minor side effects such as hunger pangs, headaches, and feeling lightheaded. Most of them can be easily corrected by making some <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/prevent-green-algae-bacteria-brita-filter-pur-water.html">adjustments in food</a> and menu. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 9: Is weight loss with HCG diet healthy? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Dieters may be apprehensive about the rapid weight loss they experience with the HCG diet. The concern is answered with the fact that the loss is completely safe and healthy because all you shed is the excess fat stored up in your <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/free-gym-upper-back-workout.html">body</a>. Weight loss is directly attributed to the loss of this extra fat and it does not strip your body in any way. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Question 10. Does HCG diet interfere with the prescription medications that the dieter is already taking? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Some patients may be on some prescription medications</span><span style="font-size: large;"> for conditions such as thyroid disturbances. In such a case, the dieter must first seek the physician’s advice before starting with the diet plan. No prescription medication should ever be stopped without consulting your doctor. Similarly, those with chronic conditions should take the diet plan only if the physician allows them to. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">With all these key questions related to HCG diet answered, the basics for existing and prospective dieters are all covered. With these answers, you will be able to decide whether the <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/05/chicken-stew-herb-dumplings-soup-recipe.html">meal</a> diet plan would work for you or not. HCG drops can be bought over the counter as you do not need a prescription for them. At the same time, there are plenty of online sellers that offer the HCG diet at great prices and gives answers to any more questions that you might have.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Utilize the HCG dietary supplement option if it makes sense for your goals and health and combine with healthy nutrition and workouts at your home or <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/04/how-choose-best-gym-health-club.html">gym</a> for best results. </span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<img alt="debit cards vs credit cards" border="0" data-original-height="338" data-original-width="640" height="338" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgizk3To3pZkk3R36AGp9OIlWEraLmcTF3X0PmGGZ6K_1uKEXsN2-3Nj75_6PSke3KzvQsH8g5aBk4yihykGBVa9xBplNyOf7OqkmhglqZsvlrlOoHLihiNsC1wHIVmCptiTcasML09/s640/debit-cards-vs-credit-cards-payment-risks-benefits-pros-cons-card.jpg" title="debit cards vs credit cards" width="640" /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">While they look the same, credit cards and debit cards trigger different mechanisms, some of which can cost you more money. While debit cards draw from your bank accounts, credit cards pull from a line of credit. As a result, credit card purchases can be more expensive under certain circumstances. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">However, that is just one consideration of debit cards vs. credit cards. Below we will discuss features of debit cards compared to credit cards, with the pros and cons of each payment method.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>How Debit Cards Work </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you make a purchase using your debit card, you are typically asked to verify your identity with a four-digit personal identification number (PIN). The card is usually linked directly to your checking account, from which the money to cover your purchases is deducted. Keep in mind that some checking or savings accounts may have balance minimums to avoid certain fees or restrictions, so paying with a debit card at times could put you at account fee risk. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Because items are paid for right away, you will encounter no interest charges. However, some banks do charge a debit card fee of up to $2 when you use the card to make purchases. It is a good idea to read the card agreement to determine if this applies to you. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Other fees associated with debit cards include monthly maintenance fees, out of network ATM fees, overdraft fees (if a purchase amount exceeds the balance in the account to which the card is linked) and the aforementioned transaction fees. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>How Credit Cards Work </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you make a purchase using a credit card, you borrow against a line of credit. You can make purchases up to its maximum amount, at which point your transaction will be denied (and you will be charged a fee for trying to do so). This same transaction would likely be approved with a debit card — if the account from which you are drawing has overdraft protection. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">On the other hand, credit card transactions are interest-free, as long as the balance is paid in full each month before the grace period ends. With that said, interest rates on credit cards tend to be higher than any other form of borrowing. It is important to be in a position to pay off your purchases in full before interest is imposed upon the transactions. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">“If you are in a position where you find yourself just paying minimum payments every month, you may consider trying a debt payoff plan using the Snowball method, Savvy method or Avalanche method to help you get out of debt faster” <a href="https://www.myfrugalbusiness.com/2018/03/dave-ramsey-quotes-entrepreneur-inspiration-money.html" target="_blank">says Dave Ramsey</a>.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Like debit cards, a number of fees are associated with credit cards. Among these are annual cardholder fees, foreign transaction fees, cash advance fees, late payment fees, balance transfer fees and the over limit fees we mentioned above. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">These costs can mount rather quickly and are added to your outstanding balance — which is subject to <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2019/11/tips-handle-money-manage-finances-right.html">finance</a> charges. Thus, it is in fact possible to wind up owing interest on interest on a credit card bill. As a result, they can get out of hand rather quickly. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Some people facing major credit card debt and struggling to keep up with monthly payments try to settle these debts for less through programs like <a href="https://www.trustpilot.com/review/freedomdebtrelief.com" target="_blank">Freedom Debt Relief</a>. This process involves negotiating with creditors, trying to get them to accept a percentage of the original balance — the leverage being that there is otherwise a risk of the borrower defaulting on those debts. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>So Which Payment Option Is Best? </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When it comes to debit cards vs. credit cards, the latter can help you establish a financial history, plus they provide superior protection if the card is lost or stolen. Many credit cards also have rewards programs associated with them so you can get free flights, cash back and other incentives. Credit cards can get you extended warranties on certain consumer products and help you acquire something you need in a pinch, without compromising your financial liquidity too. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">On the other hand, you will only spend what you have with a debit card — which mitigates the risk of creating insurmountable debt. While the pluses of a credit card are undeniable, the downsides can be a crippled credit history, outrageous interest payments and never-ending debt. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You will also encounter fewer fees with debit cards. And some locations like dispensaries will only accept debit cards (as ATM transactions) or cash, with no credit card options or a higher price being required.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span>Cards Conclusion</span><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Bottom line, if you are good at paying your bills off every month, you will get a lot more benefits out of a credit card — but <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/050214/credit-vs-debit-cards-which-better.asp" target="_blank">the risks are higher</a> as well. Decide which paying option is right for your specific transaction or series of monthly transactions.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Can you imagine being a secret millionaire?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Living a quiet life as an auditor for the IRS, Anne Scheiber had a meager income. However, when she passed away at the age of 101, the truth came out about her personal finances.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Over the years, Anne made several wise investments and acquired a surprising $22 million in assets. In her will, she donated the entire multimillion-dollar fortune to Yeshiva University.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Anyone who wants to gain financial independence can learn a thing or two from Anne’s story. When you know how to choose the right short term investment options, you can slowly and safely grow your money over years and decades.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Are you ready to make your money work for you? Read on to learn about 4 different investment opportunities that pay off in the long run.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Choosing Short Term Investment Options</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Before you start learning about the different short term investment options, it's important to remember that risk is relative. Take into account your financial situation, to assess what a low risk and high-risk opportunity would look like for you. We also suggest looking into tactical asset allocation.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Here are a few questions you can ask to determine how risks will affect you</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">How many income sources do you have?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">How much of your income is expendable each month?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">What do your current investments look like?</span></li>
</ul>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">When it comes to determining your risk, you have to be able to quantify the amounts. In other words, get specific about what low risk, medium risk and high-risk means to you.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Now that you have a better idea of what risk means in the financial world to you personally, we can dive into the different investment ideas.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">1. High Yield Savings Accounts</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Let's start by discussing how high-yield savings can help you build your financial portfolio. Banking institutions that offer high-yield savings or checking accounts like <a href="https://www.sccu.com/personal/checking-accounts/free-checking" target="_blank"><span style="color: #2b00fe;">SCCU checking account</span></a>, are great ways to slowly grow your money. A penny saved is a penny earned after all! Every little bit counts in today's tricky economy. </span><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://money.cnn.com/2013/10/01/pf/savings-account-yields/index.html" target="_blank">Research shows</a> that a standard savings account typically offers less than a 1% return on your money. That means you end up actually losing money to inflation each year, which has been rising rapidly recently.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">However, high-yield savings accounts, offer return amounts between 1.8% and 2%, or more. The percentage of your return will vary depending on what institution you go with, and how the markets are doing at the time.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Remember, when it comes to finances, risk and other factors are all relative. While a 2% return, it may not seem like a lot of money, it is when you compare it to what the standard savings accounts are offering.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">2. Short Term Bonds</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Moving on, short-term bonds are another safe way to invest your money. There are a few different ways you can go about getting different types of short-term bonds.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">First, you can buy individual short-term bonds. Corporate bonds and government bonds offer short-term opportunities.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can also choose to buy mutual bonds, short-term bond funds, or short-term bonds ETF's. If you're going to use short-term bonds, plan to have your money invested for about 3 to 5 years.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Typically, you can expect to see returns starting at 2.5% and up. The return rates on short-term bonds are higher than high-yield savings accounts, and so are the risk factors.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">If interest rates go up, you could see a small dip in your principles. However, as long as you're willing to wait for interest rates to stabilize again, you can earn a profit.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">3. Treasury Inflation Protection Securities</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">The third way you can safely invest your money is with TIPS. Treasury inflation-protected securities, or tips, are a long-term investment opportunity.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">There are a few different ways you can get TIPs. First, you can find reputable companies that offer you the opportunity to buy them online. When you go to buy TIPS online, it's common to see the securities for sale listed in different yearly installments.<br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For example, you'll have options to buy 5, 10, 15, up to 30-year investment opportunities. We suggest you steer clear of choosing anything more than the 10-year option.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">While TIPS are a safe way to invest your money, they aren't going to offer you incredibly high returns. Having your money tied up for 30 years isn't as wise as diversifying with multiple investment opportunities.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can also choose to buy ETF's, or mutual funds, which are also TIPS. At the moment, the interest rate on TIPS is comparable to a high-yield savings account.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">A typical return would be 1.5 to 2% depending on how long you're investing.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />One great thing about TIPS is that they work to keep up with inflation. You'll also have the added in a fit of knowing the government is backing your investment.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">4. Dividend-Paying Stocks</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">So far, we've been discussing investment opportunities that have minimal risk. Keeping in mind that risk is relative to your financial situation, next will be discussing a slightly riskier opportunity.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Dividend-paying stocks mean you will be investing in the stock market directly. However, dividend stocks are different than regular stocks. A dividend stop occurs when a company reaches a point where they are a cash solvent.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">When this happens, shareholders get the reward of being able to pay in the form of a dividend. In the stock market, there are two ways to make money. First, you can make money with appreciation, where the value of a stock grows for more than what you paid for it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The second way to make money is with the dividend. Energy and utilities sector stocks typically have dividend options. Let's say for example that you buy a dividend stock and it doesn't appreciate at all.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You buy the stock for $10 and at the end of the year, it is still worth $10. While you aren't making any money on the appreciation and, you still get paid in the form of a dividend.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You should look for stocks that have a history of not only paying a dividend but also increasing the number of dividends your paid overtime. These can be your smartest <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2023/05/role-of-options-active-and-passive-investing-strategies-in-singapore.html">options for investing</a>.</span><br />

While tax relief programs can provide significant benefits, it is crucial to consider several factors to ensure that you make informed decisions with regards to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). This article highlights seven key considerations to keep in mind before applying for <a href="https://www.idealtax.com/" target="_blank">tax relief services</a> in the USA. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7 Tax Relief Key Points </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>1. Eligibility Criteria</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Different tax relief programs have specific eligibility criteria. Before applying, carefully review the requirements and determine if you meet the qualifications. For example, some tax credits are income-based, while others may have restrictions based on factors such as age, education, or employment. Understanding the eligibility criteria will help you assess whether you are eligible for the relief program you are considering. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>2. Financial Impact</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">While tax relief can reduce your tax burden, it is important to evaluate the overall financial impact of seeking relief. Consider the potential short-term and long-term consequences of the relief option. For instance, some relief programs may require you to repay a portion of the relief in the future, which can affect your financial stability. Assess how the relief will impact your current cash flow, financial goals, and potential tax savings to make an informed decision. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>3. Documentation And Compliance</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Tax relief programs often require documentation to support your eligibility. Before applying, gather all the necessary documentation and ensure that you meet the compliance requirements. Failure to provide accurate and complete documentation may result in your application being rejected or delayed. Additionally, be aware of any reporting obligations or ongoing requirements associated with the relief program to avoid penalties or loss of benefits. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>4. Future Tax Implications</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Consider the potential impact on your future tax returns when applying for tax relief. Certain relief options may affect your future tax liabilities, deductions, or credits. For example, if you choose to claim a tax credit for energy-efficient home improvements, it may limit your ability to claim the same credit in future years. Assess how the relief option may influence your future tax planning and consult with a tax professional if necessary. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>5. Alternative Strategies</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Before pursuing tax relief, explore alternative strategies that may achieve similar or better results. For example, if you are considering applying for an installment payment plan with the IRS, evaluate whether it would be more beneficial to secure a low-interest loan from a financial institution. Comparing different approaches can help you identify the most cost-effective and advantageous option for your specific circumstances. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>6. Impact On Credit Score</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Certain tax relief options, such as offers in compromise or settlements, may have implications for your credit score. These programs may require negotiation with the IRS or other entities, potentially impacting your creditworthiness. Understand the potential consequences for your credit score and consider whether the relief option outweighs any negative impact on your creditworthiness. When you are taxed, it could hurt your credit or even cause you to consider bankruptcy. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>7. Professional Advice</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Seeking professional advice from a tax attorney, certified public accountant (CPA), or tax professional is highly recommended before applying for tax relief. Accountants can provide expert guidance based on your specific situation, help you understand the implications, and navigate the application process. A tax professional can also provide insights into alternative strategies or additional relief options that you may not be aware of. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Tax Relief Considerations Conclusion </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Before applying for tax relief in the USA, carefully consider factors such as eligibility criteria, financial impact, documentation requirements, future tax implications, alternative strategies, and the potential impact on your credit score. Making informed decisions about tax relief options requires a thorough evaluation of your financial circumstances and objectives. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Seeking professional advice can provide valuable insights and help you <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/05/instances-hire-tax-lawyer.html">navigate the complex tax landscape</a>, ensuring that you choose the most suitable relief option for your needs.

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The number of uninsured Americans has risen by over 3 million people in the past few years. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It doesn't matter whether you need health insurance, car insurance, business insurance, or even a more specialized insurance plan. Learning how to choose insurance companies you can trust to exceed your expectations is essential. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">What do you need to know to choose the <a href="https://www.utilitysavingexpert.com/taxi-insurance/private-hire/" target="_blank">best insurance provider</a> and policy? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Read on to find out how to choose insurance policies right for your company.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">1. Get to Know </span></b><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">Your Communication Options</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">What is one of the most important things that many people overlook when learning how to choose insurance? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The level and ease of communication an insurance company provides. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">First, determine if they are able to clearly answer your policy questions in terms you can actually understand. Next, get to know available communication platforms.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Can you pay your bills or report a claim online? Does the company prefer to communicate by email or over the phone? How easy is it to get an in-person appointment if needed? </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Do you feel like the insurance provider is giving you advice specifically tailored to your needs, or are they rushing you through your consultation and giving you advice that is too general to be helpful?</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">2. Evaluate the Insurer's Strength </span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">When you are ready to find an insurance policy that you feel secure in, you will need to do some serious research on the overall financial strength and history of the insurance company itself. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You need to feel secure that, even in recessions and other financial crises, the company can still pay out claims. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">We strongly suggest that you check out the insurer ratings database to ensure you choose the best and strongest insurance provider. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">3. Understand Coverage Options</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">You will also need to ensure the company actually provides insurance coverage that suits your personal or professional needs. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For example, if you are in construction, you may need a provider that offers equipment insurance. If you work in tech, find a technology insurance company that understand the analytical nature of your insurance needs. Using online services can help you quickly generate quotes, like for the <a href="https://www.autoinsurance.org/cheapest-full-coverage-auto-insurance/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">top auto insurance companies</span></a> to get low cost and full coverage policies.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Disability insurance, life insurance, and homeowner's insurance are all common policies. Any quality insurance company should provide these options.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">4. Ask About Discounts</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Yes, you can get discounts on insurance like any other service. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">For example, if you have a good driving record, own multiple vehicles, and even if you have a strong credit history, you may be entitled to special discounts. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The same thing goes if you have a strong academic record, a newer home, or worth within a specialized industry. You can often negotiate the amount of your monthly payment directly with an insurance agent. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;">You've Mastered How to Choose Insurance Companies You Can Count On</span></b><br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></b>
<span style="font-size: large;">Learning how to choose insurance policies and providers is never something you should rush through. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Instead, <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/05/tips-select-premium-commercial-insurance-brokers-construction-company.html">get insurance</a> quotes from multiple companies, negotiate and ask for discounts, and be sure you have a clear understanding of the cost and specific coverage the insurance policy offers. </span><br />

<div id="ctrl-12895091">
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">4C Energy Rush is the most frugal way to enjoy energy drinks or even caffeine in general. Energy drinks are typically a very expensive habit, comparable to paying for premium coffees, except for 4C Energy Rush with Taurine powder. Buying regular energy drinks could cost you a fortune over time, while these energy packets are available at a steep discount. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">This is especially true now that 4C released brand new Energy Rush ELECTROLYTE boxes of 40 packets for only $9.95, at least on Amazon. The new Grape and Lemonade flavors are a delight, and this new product has more caffeine but no taurine or glucuronolactone, which can be great for users not wanting as many stimulant ingredients. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b><a href="http://www.bestbusinessbuilders.com" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">BOOST YOUR HEALTH AND WEALTH RIGHT HERE</a></b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">Let me first say that no I am not sponsored or paid by 4C to review, but I admit that I wish I was! Honestly I should be after a decade and a half of buying their product religiously and referring others to it that are overspending on caffeinated products. 4C Energy Rush is the most underrated and under the radar energy drink option on the market today. I love this product so much it isn't even funny. I have bought these caffeinated packets for 16 years now ever since I realized that each packet had the same exact ingredients (including <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2011/03/caffeine-double-edged-sword.html" target="_blank">Caffeine</a>, Taurine, and B-Vitamins) as two 8 oz Sugar Free Red Bull... but at about 25 cents a packet instead of $2.50 or much more for canned / bottled drinks! 4C Energy Rush used to have 3 separate boxes with flavor choices of orange, citrus, or berry with 14 packets in each box (the new Strawberry flavor I loved seems be discontinued permanently now). Now 4C Energy Rush has variety packs with 18 packets in each box for the same price in 2023! </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b><a href="https://livegoodtour.com/BusinessBuilder" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">These Supplements Could Help Your Health</a></b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>Caffeine Content Of 4C Energy Rush Packets</b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">The caffeine content of 4C energy rush is about 160 mg per packet (serving size is 1/2 packet or 80 mg of caffeine). This caffeine content is identical to Sugar Free Red Bull and on par with other popular energy drinks in 2023.</span></span></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b><br /></b></span></span></span><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b>What Is The 4C Energy Rush Price And Value?</b></span></span></span><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span> <span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">Each packet of 4C Energy Rush Sugar Free mixes in about 16 ounces of water (more or less depending on your tastes, I use about 8 oz), tastes excellent, and gives you a big and convenient pick-me-up with 180 mg of caffeine content. If you like energy drinks (especially sugar-free ones) or you are a fellow <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2010/12/supplement-review-caffeine-tablets.html" target="_blank">caffeine-addict</a>, you definitely need to check out this incredible bargain of a product. Stop paying $2-4+ dollars per can or bottle of mainstream energy drinks now when you can buy a box of 18 packets for a price of $2.99-5.99. I have actually gotten 4C Energy Rush packs a few times on sale for $1.99 on rare occasions, but that is much less common in 2023 due to inflation. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">The only thing cheaper than 4C Energy Rush packs are generic caffeine pills and some very cheap instant coffee bought in bulk (store brand or Maxwell House), but they do not come with the B-vitamins or other stimulant ingredients.</span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>What Flavors Does 4C Energy Rush Come In? </b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">The 4C Energy Rush comes in 3 flavors now: Berry (available in its own box), Orange, and Citrus (Lemon Lime).

Other <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_drink" target="_blank">caffeinated energy drink</a> powder just doesn't do the trick or costs a fortune by comparison. 4 C Energy Rush even a great option for pre-workout energy, B-vitamins, and weight loss assistance since this 0 calorie powder with 180 mg caffeine can help to reduce appetite and boost workout motivation. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>Other Advantages Of 4C Energy Rush Packs </b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">Aside from the price and minimal sugar / calories, these energy drink powders can be added with as much or as little water as you'd like. This allows you to control the flavor and concentration, which is especially handy if you don't want to drink 8-20 oz of water like many energy drinks out there. You could even a packet or part of a packet to another drink, soda, or energy drink. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">The other advantage is small but potentially significant. Since 4C Energy Rush packets aren't sitting in plastic bottles or aluminum cans for months or years before you drink them, it could spare you possible BPA or aluminum toxin contamination. Add your 4C Energy Rush to a glass or BPA free bottle and enjoy! </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>Is 4C Energy Rush Healthy? </b></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">I am not hear to say that 4C Energy Rush powder is healthy by itself. It is very acidic, has artificial sweeteners like sucralose, and stimulant ingredients that could cause side effects in some people. Caffeine can also be very addictive and large amounts could be dangerous. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">What I can confidently say is that 4C Energy Rush packets are healthier than full sugar energy drinks or coffee with large amounts of cream and/or sugar. It is also an FDA approved food product like Sugar Free Red Bull so there is less risk compared to unregulated caffeinated supplements. It is a healthier alternative than many caffeine or stimulant alternatives while also being cheaper and more convenient.</span></span></span><br />

It doesn't affect anything when you mix it in water, but I wanted to make sure this was included in my 4 C energy rush packet review and rating. But that goes for pretty much any caffeinated / pre-workout powder as well that is 10x more expensive. </span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">And overall just keep in mind that because 4C Energy Rush is a powder, it won't dissolve 100% like a canned or bottled energy drink. That is fine with me, but it might not be ideal for some energy drink connoisseurs. </span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span"><span><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b>4C Energy Rush: Still The Best Bang For Your Buck</b></span></span></span><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></span></span> <span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">4C Energy Rush Packets are still my highest rated and reviewed energy drink powder mix yet because of its <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2018/05/why-quit-caffeine-coffee-green-tea.html">caffeinated potency</a> and cheap price. It is a great option for affordable increased energy, weight loss, and B-vitamins. Enjoy the energy rush for pennies on the dollar! 4C energy rush packet is so affordable, it is on par with bulk instant coffee in terms of caffeine content, but has the added value of taurine, gluconurolactone, and B-vitamins.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";"><b>4C Energy Rush Pro Tip: Add Emergen-C</b></span><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">If you want to add even more B-vitamins, Vitamin C, and electrolytes to your 4C caffeine rush drink, just add a packet or portion of a packet of Emergen-C powder. It's a great way to add extra cheap antioxidants to your 4C energy drink on a frugal budget. Feel the rush of the cheapest energy drink option on the market today! </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>4C Energy Rush Can Be Hard To Find - Possibly On Purpose </b></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">With 4C Energy Rush being such an amazing value, you would think it would be advertised often and featured prominently at stores of all types such as grocery stores, big box stores, and convenience stores. But you'll be lucky if you find 1-2 facings of this product (the variety pack and maybe the blue berry option) at grocery stores, rarely at big box stores, and never at c-stores. That's at least partially because 4C is a relatively small company compared to it's multi-billion dollar energy drink competitors like Monster, Red Bull, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, Dr Pepper / Snapple Group, and other heavy hitters that essentially control shelf space in stores. Those big beverage corporations don't want customers to know that they can get the equivalent of 18 energy drinks in 4C energy rush packets for the price of 2 of their overpriced energy drink cans or bottles. It's not even easy to find it for sale online, or at least not for good prices. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">If you think I'm exaggerating on this point, you've clearly never worked in the retail, grocery, or c-store space where these multi-billion dollar beverage companies reign supreme.</span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>Avoid 4C Energy Rush With Alcohol As A Cheap "Red Bull And Vodka" Alternative </b></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">Yes 4C Energy Rush has nearly identical ingredients to sugar free Red Bull energy drinks at a small fraction of the cost, but I wouldn't advise mixing it with alcohol like cheap vodka. The stimulant effect of caffeine, along with other stimulants like Taurine and gluconurolactone, directly go against the depressant alcohol, which isn't good for your brain or heart, although you will save a lot of money at least. Unfortunately I know from experience (myself and roommates) from my college days that mixing energy packets and hard alcohol doesn't end up well. It amounts to a lot of craziness and poor decisions in most cases, but is obviously no worse than Sugar Free Red Bull + Vodka since the ingredients are the same. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">I have personally seen people get into fights and do flips onto cement because they combined 4C Energy Rush and large amounts of alcohol and it wasn't pretty. That is a topic for a whole other blog post review! It will also damage your liver and put strain on your heart to do this.</span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>4C Energy Rush Alternatives </b></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">While 4C Energy Rush powder packets are top reviewed product by reviewers around the United States, there are a few decent comparable products I have found. True Lemon packets sold at grocery stores and on Amazon have caffeine from green tea, no calories, no sodium for a healthier option some may prefer. These energy drink replacement packets have no B-vitamins, taurine, or gluconurolactone but they do contain 100% Vitamin C. They are a bit more expensive though since they only come in boxes of 6 packets. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">The other 4C energy rush packet alternative is Mio Energy made by Kraft, which allows you to squirt as much or as little of the liquid water additive to your drink as you would like. It has less calories than 4C energy rush but less B-vitamins and stimulants. Sometimes the liquid form is beneficial on the go, other times not so much.</span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">Both of these alternative products have store brand and generic knockoffs as well if you prefer cheaper prices or different flavors for your caffeine fix. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: x-large;"><b>4C Energy Rush Powder May Not Be Healthy For Everyone </b></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">While I have used 4C Energy Rush Powder Packets to get my caffeine fix for 17 years, I have very recently had to restrict or eliminate its consumption. Due to respiratory and digestive issues like GERD giving me a chronic cough, I have had to reduce or eliminate high caffeine and acidic beverages along with stimulants Taurine and Gluconurolactone like those found in 4C packs. It might just be me but these energy rush drinks seem to trigger acid reflux and coughing fits more than other caffeinated drinks like coffee with milk added. What is clear is that the combination of caffeine, acidity, carbonation, artificial sweeteners, and stimulants is a recipe for stomach or digestive issues. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">4C Energy Rush, like any other energy drink, can also cause strain on your liver, kidneys, stomach, and GI tract. Too much caffeine at once can put a lot of strain on your heart so you shouldn't take it if you have any heart disease or potential condition.</span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">It depends on the person whether this drink powder option is a healthier alternative for someone. Just be aware if you have a negative reaction to it or drink too much for too long, it could be the wrong choice for your caffeination and you may need to switch to weak coffee or tea. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">The ingredients in 4C Energy Rush could interfere with medical conditions or medications that may not occur with more common caffeine choices besides energy drinks. It has been hard to reduce and quit 4C energy drinks because they worked so well and provided a quick pick-me up, but everyone is different and has to make the decision for themselves. </span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;">Regardless of your age and medical health, you should probably limit your 4C Energy Drink consumption per day and not drink it every day. It is good to give your adrenal glands, heart, liver, kidneys, and stomach a break at least once in awhile. But certainly contact your doctor, registered dietitian, nutritionist, and/or pharmacist for their expert opinions on 4C Energy rush powder usage.</span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><span style="font-family: "arial"; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div id="ctrl-12895091"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: "arial";">4C Energy Rush Review Conclusion</span><br /></span></b>

This way, you will get to appreciate this precious mineral the earth has blessed us humans with even more golden opportunities. Gold has a <i>rich</i> history indeed leading up to our shaky 2024 economy!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Since as far back as 2000 B.C gold has been in existence, however, what it was being used for at that time remains unclear. It wasn’t until 560 B.C. when the ancient Egyptians began making jewelry out of the precious metal that it began to serve as a currency. At the time, there was a need for a standardized payment system that would ease trade; this was done by the creation of sealed <a href="https://www.gold.org/about-gold/history-gold/golds-role-money" target="_blank">gold coins</a> and it worked because gold was already being accepted all over the place as a means of exchange. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Following the advent of this shiny metal as a form of money, its importance and value continued to grow spreading far and wide even to the UK and Europe. In 775, Great Britain joined the party as they developed their own metals-based currency. Ever since, this valuable metal has been used as a symbol of wealth and power throughout the world. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">In following this tradition, the U.S government in 1792 established the bimetallic standard which stated that every monetary unit in the country would be backed by either gold or silver. This law didn’t last very long as a series of events led to its abandonment in 1971 when the country’s currency ceased to be backed by any precious metal. At this moment the United States economy was sent down a road of inflation and instability, according to many economists and critics. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Gold In The Economy Today </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">In the economy and the society at large, gold still remains valuable and important despite it not backing any country’s currency. The balance sheets of many financial organizations and even central banks are proof of this fact. Currently, these institutions hold one-fifth of the earth’s supply of gold above ground. Furthermore, a few central banks have strengthened their gold reserves by adding more of the precious metal; an act aimed at protecting their country against any fall in the global economy in the future.

There are many ways one can invest in gold and following some of these ways, one doesn’t have to physically own the shiny metal to make money from it; however, that is a bad investment move as you will get to see in the first tip. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Own It Physically </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">As have been established already, gold’s most basic function is as money. Until 1971 when America abandoned the gold standard under Nixon’s government, it backed the Dollar and following the abandonment of the bimetallic standard, the fiat system was introduced which involved paper moneys that weren’t backed by the precious metal. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Since no currency in the world is back by the physical commodity, the gold paper market has grown incredibly as there are many people eager to buy money backed by it. This is clearly evident if you examine the commodity exchange market (COMEX), where it isn’t uncommon for there to be paper claims of as much as 500 for every ounce of actual gold available on the exchange market! </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">A lot of people who have bought the metal on paper believe they own it physically; however, when they go to claim it, they will find out sadly, that there isn’t enough physical gold available. This is why if you will be investing in this metal as an insurance should the current monetary system crash, you should buy it physically and not on paper. Visit <a href="https://www.britannica.com/topic/commodity-exchange" target="_blank">https://www.britannica.com/topic/commodity-exchange</a> to learn more about the commodity exchange market including gold precious metals. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Buy Only Liquid Bars And Coins </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">The whole idea of investing in gold in the first place is to be able to convert it to physical cash anytime it becomes necessary; to do this you wouldd have to invest in the most liquid coins and bars, especially coins. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Legal tender coins like the Australian Nugget, the Australian Philharmonic, or the Maple can be liquidated easily for cash anytime. Although bars can be liquidated, they are usually too bulky and heavy to move around making coins a better alternative. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Make sure you buy coins and bars from trusted dealers to get what you are paying for. There are so many shady dealers who sell lower karat gold coins and bars for the actual market price. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2020/12/best-precious-metals-invest-gold-vs-silver.html" target="_blank"><img alt="gold investing bullion bars" border="0" data-original-height="427" data-original-width="757" height="362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjAMnQEs3YG18dgm8YJbg275IM9NIjePd4kiT77aiMux3UzPz_nnMxr8y46Qove-QgCfy4BVdeAr34HCPqQQKNfkuXftwDUCtZjOgLmGhNVyD7YFrp_M6dmsp3Zt9jnZr7E2D7PRwXT/w640-h362/gold-investing-tips-precious-metals-bars-bullion.JPG" title="gold investing bullion bars" width="640" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Make Sure You Own It Directly </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Many countries limit gold storage outside of the traditional banking system and this greatly affects the quantity of the metal individuals can store close to them. This wouldn’t be a problem for people who do not have that much money to buy the metal physically. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">However, for people who are wealthy enough to buy large quantities, they should consider moving to places like Liechtenstein or Switzerland that have strong private property rights. However, if this isn’t an option for you, and you would rather store your precious metal with an authorized storage company, make sure you have complete control over it, and that the company has no say in whatever you choose to do with your gold. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Buy With Your Savings, Not Credit </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gold is a hedge against the crash of the current monetary system. Our current economy relies on credit and debt which is unhealthy. In the event that the system crashes, people that have purchased the precious metal with credit will lose it since it isn’t technically theirs-they owe someone or some bank or financial organization. Your best bet is saving up and buying it with your money, that way, it is yours and yours in its entirety. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">If you are ready to start investing in gold, start by choosing the right broker. For legit dealers, you can enquire <a href="https://www.otisgold.com/noble-gold-investments-reviews/" target="_blank">about Noble gold</a> or approach your bank for recommendations. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Precious Metals Investment Conclusion </b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Gold investment is one of the best forms of investment one can make to <a href="https://www.myfrugalfitness.com/2021/07/best-investments-for-inflation.html">protect their financial future</a> but, doing it right might be tricky and requires caution and expert advice.

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">The cryptocurrency known as Bitcoin has changed the way we conduct online transactions. It is the fastest and freest way to transfer money to any place in the world. It is easy to shrug off an idea as novel as Bitcoin. But is not easy to find out an alternate to something as robust as Bitcoin. The brainchild of Satoshi Nakamoto has now become the world’s most sought after form of cryptocurrency. So many people in the media keep bashing this currency and it has become widely criticized throughout the world. Its valuation and acceptance rate have fluctuated wildly over the last few years after all. But there are also many real reasons why Bitcoin is here to stay and prosper in the long-term beyond 2024. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>No Central Control Needed</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Central Banks in almost all countries of the world standardize and regulate the flow of money. A Central bank theoretically controls every single dollar coming in and out of its country. You cannot escape the wrath of central bank policies that are often not too friendly for businesses. Bitcoin gives every person and business a chance to transact with anyone anywhere in the world. You do not need to pass through a long set of banking rules. Decentralization of control also makes the currency a lot more secure. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Transactions Beyond Borders </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Bitcoin does not discriminate against anyone due to their background. Bitcoin will make sure that you get the money through to anything you want. Sometimes, there are laws which prevent you from buying something from a particular country. These kinds of issues come up all the time. Imagine how Bitcoin facilitates lives of rich people with loads of money. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Foolproof Cyber Security Measures </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">You can use the blockchain in Bitcoin to look at the most recent transactions taking place. All you need is internet access to search for the record of the Bitcoin history. The users of Bitcoin can easily choose between going public or completely hiding their privacy. This way they can choose the way they like to use this cryptocurrency. You do not need to identify yourself to the Bitcoin protocol. There are no compliance requirements to meet. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>None Of The Usual Inflation </b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">No matter which currency you try to store, it has that inflation impact on it. Inflation is a result of many micro and macroeconomic factors affecting a country. There are around 21 million bitcoins in the market. The demand for Bitcoins remains high despite many countries facing economic hardships. A Truly Global Currency Bitcoin is a truly global currency which does not consider where you live, who you are, and what you do. It is available to everyone who has a potential use for it. The peer-to-peer method ensures that you directly get the money into your account. You do not have to report to any third party or financial institution. And finally, you can send as much cryptocurrency as you would like to.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>Top 4 Bitcoin Wallets</b></span><br />
