Each year I bring them together in my Grandma Rie’s Money Camp and focus on different aspects of personal finance, with saving being a focus in each camp. Both are now old enough to open a bank savings account. If you are risk averse, you may lose sleep (and health) worrying about the safety of your finances.

Back in October 2003, I left a corporate career as a department store buyer with a nice reliable paycheck and benefits– including health insurance –to join my husband in the land of self-employment. This house was less than what the bank said we could afford. It was tricky at first.

Your money works for you when it is earning you interest or adding value so don’t leave it sitting in your everyday bank account. This means accommodation, food, utility bills, basic clothing and health care. See how simple finances are when you have that budget…….and Spend most of your money on what you ‘need’ to live.

And I’m talking about all forms of insurance, from health to life and even home insurance. Even if your kids don’t end up going to Harvard, you’ll have that money saved in your bank account, and you can use it to pay for whichever college they decide to join.

Besides writing on my personal finance blog, A Debt Free Stress Free Life, I’m an adjunct professor at a local college and own a residential and commercial cleaning business. I don’t eat processed food so for me most of my savings come from health and beauty and household products. Review bank accounts daily.
