4 Steps to get out of debt

In the past my weakness has always been clothes and traveling. If I didn't have the cash I would charge it. Every paycheck went towards money already spent. I lived paycheck to paycheck spending ridiculous amount of money on Designer goods. Whatever I wanted I bought it, never saving a dime. Living a champagne lifestyle on a beer budget, quickly got me into $25,000 in debt.

4 Steps to get out of debt.
 

1. Living above my means.

Living above your means is the easiest way to get into debt. Not keeping track of what you you are spending and spending more than you make. Just because you make it, don't mean you have to spend it all.

Start a budget and stick to it. Learn how to say no to impulse buying. Just because it's on sale don't mean you need it. If you dont have the cash to buy it you can't afford it. Save up for big ticket items/ trips and buy pre love items.

2. Charging everything.

Is not a good idea unless you are paying the bill off in full every month. Only use charge cards for emergency. If you are already in debt, than post up what you owe so you can see it everyday. Stop shopping and any extra cash go toward your debt.

2. Not saving

When things happen you will not be prepared, car accident, car trouble, job lost. In life stuff happens everyday, so being prepare for those mishaps is priceless. Pay yourself first, least save 6 months of your expenses.

4. Not Having control over my money

Everyone should have their own account even if you are married. You should always know exactly where the money is going every month. No one person should control all the money.

10 years later and I am debt free and still using these 4 steps to stay out of Debt

Diva on the move in Paris

Waking-up in Paris I was so excited, to finally be here shopping in Paris, I never imagine that I would be here all alone. After, getting myself together to stroll the fabulous streets of Paris, I decied to walk the 2.5 miles to my destination instead of cabing it. Words could not express the feeling of excitement, joy, and antisapation of shopping at Les marches Catherine B. Being able see a great Vintage Chanel and Hermes Collection in one place is great. I have read many things about Les marches Catherine B they only buy Chanel and Hermes pieces that are no longer in production. After getting lost, decied to duck into a cafe to rest my feet and eat lunch. To my surprise I was only 5 min away from my destination. When I arrived, the door was locked but I could see people inside. I taped on the glass an a very handsome man open the door and preceded to tell me that I could come in I needed to make an appointment. My heart dropped, oh hell no, I did not come this far to take that. I politely asked if I could make an appointment he gave me his card and said call later but he is not making any promises. I am so disappoint but I am not going to let that stop me.

The next day I called a few times no answer, so I waited and called again! Being persist paid off, when I finally reached him he told me to come by now and off I went

Achat Imme'diat was very charming we talked about vintage Chanel and my Collection. This place is fantastic, it was worth the wait the Collection was amazing and now I know what I should be adding to my Collection.
