As I was getting some Baby Back Ribs from Chili’s I was thinking of the resolutions that I had published.
I thought of II more that are easy to accomplish & that will make me a better steward of my money.
I didn’t leave the house until at least 12.00. Plenty of enough time to make lunch. BUT I didn’t & there is no excuse for that.
I had a giftcard to Chili’s so my lunch only ended up costing like $1.78 or something.
So I’m thinking why am I spending money on food, when I love cooking. So I’ve came up with an arbitrary number of $7 per meal max. IF it is more than that, I can make it at home. This is subject to wavier if I’m on a date or it is a business lunch. I haven’t done the math of how much it would cost.
I spent about $1,385.78 last year. That is an average of about $3.79 per day. So that is below my average.
I’ve also committed to NOT using an electronic card, unless the item is over $20.00. This will ensure that I’m able to stick to the above rules.
These are good sound financial decisions that will make me a better Vernon J.
Wish me luck.
