How you start your budgeting process is an important ingredient to giving purpose to your budget. Do you want to be debt free? Once you’ve made some financial goals that motivate and inspire you, try and put dollar amounts around them. Start with what you want to achieve or attain. Do you want to retire?

This dream motivates you to put in the effort. What about holidays, cars, homes, designer clothes, retirement? You can have lots of fun with this, so give it a go. Ever heard financial gurus telling us to give up our daily Starbucks coffee and save the money? Otherwise, it just doesn’t happen.

With Valentine’s Day making it’s appearance next week, I thought it would be fun to talk about the kissing part of the holiday. Give your loved one kissing tokens to start your kissing meter. Give Me Back my Five Bucks asks if frugality limits ambition ? I had to give this some thought. How do you travel?
