March 2019
2019 actually started well for me. I set some goals, especially financial ones like saving money in the local credit union and avoiding overdrafts. I’d read some literature about financial management and was eager to put what I learned in practice.
It has been a challenging time because my resources have not been as plentiful. Control over expenses has been hard to maintain as I struggle to do more with less. More and more I strive to meet obligations and plan for contingencies, only to fall somewhat short.
So I am grateful for whatever income streams are available to me. One such stream is Swagbucks. This get paid to website has a proven track record for me. I’ve redeemed many of the points I’ve earned by completing surveys, answering poll questions daily, and making cash back purchases.
My favorite redemption is Amazon gift cards. There are quite a few gift cards available. You can even earn Paypal funds or load a gift Visa card.
Swagbucks now has a mobile app that makes earning points convenient, though there are some activities better completed with your computer. If you enable notifications on your smartphone, you will receive Swag codes to redeem for points for a limited time. There are also contests and social activity that present more earnings opportunity.
Swagbucks is fun and easy to use, so if you are looking for a way to stretch your budget by doing what you already do online, you should try it. Please sign up with this link: https://wwww.swagbucks.com/refer/lindac
It’s free and there are no upgrades or hidden expense.
To your success,

Keeping our finances in order is one of the keys to my continued mental stability, so it is very important I do a better job than I’ve been doing so far.
Last year I did some reading on money management as reference. I even decided to take my mother’s advice. I absorbed as much information as I could.
I am starting to sense a feeling of control over my circumstances now.
I am trying to use my money with more planning to keep away bad luck, so to speak.
Do you ever find yourself at the mercy of your spending habits? Remember money is a tool to help yourself and others. Learn how to use that tool just as you would learn how to use any other tool. Get educated. You can make it work if you know how to do it.
Be grateful for what you have and be generous. Money can bless when used for good instead of indulgence.
