HABIT 1:
Understand how much money you need to satisfy your ideal lifestyle, and be in charge of your choices.
HABIT 2:
Don't fall into the trap of believing that debt is normal, or that living within your means is an old-fashioned idea.
HABIT 3:
Just because you can get the loan, doesn't mean you should—the first rule of borrowing is that you have to pay it back.
HABIT 4:
Be prepared, and have the peace of mind in knowing there's a cushion to break a fall.
HABIT 5:
10% savings will help ensure your future, support you in emergencies, and work toward major purchases like a house or car.
HABIT 6:
Invest your hard-earned cash only in things you understand, that have a proven track-record. If it's dependent on luck or chance, it's a gamble.
HABIT 7:
Your financial decisions affect your family, not just you. Discuss how you can each contribute to your family's financial success.
HABIT 8:
Understand how much money you need to satisfy your ideal lifestyle, and be in charge of your choices.
