Ideas stolen from a friend, some financial rules to consider:
1) “Sufficiency” is key. Anything more only weighs you down with worry.
2) Trade services instead of cash when and where ever possible.
3) Pursue your passion and funds for making a “living” of it will follow.
4) Nix the retirement fund. Invest in the present and the making of a memory fund.
5) Find “work” that you love so much that you would never want to retire from it.
6) Don’t EVER look at magazines.
7) Give away (or sell) everything that you don’t use on a weekly basis.
Say “no” to credit cards and loans.
9) Check your bank account one day a month. Forget about it the other 29.
10) Take public transport.
11) Don’t spend money on alcohol.
