August spending
August 14, 2018
I’m Miriam Neff-with STARTING OVER FINANCIALLY,-and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, and we’re here to talk about money
M August is school opening time. Opportunity to learn, opportunity to spend. School fees are a given. Some can be subsidized depending on family income. Necessary expenses can be $100.00 and more.
V What student doesn’t want new clothes, a cooler phone, some other gadget that’s popular? It’s a good time for that family conversation about what matters. Proverbs 2: 10 talks of the value of wisdom and knowledge. Scripture repeats that wisdom is more valuable than gold, or any other sparkly item.
M Back to school time is good family discussion time. A great time for students to be a part of budget planning. Their wants, their needs, and family priorities.
