Beware of Credit Card Trap
The following so that you can be free from debt and always clean from the debt.
Will be in vain if you try to pay and pay off your debts while you still make new debt. Start by calculating the total debt you already have. Take a piece of paper and make 4 columns inside. First make a list of names and financial institutions (banks) where you have debt. And the next input amount owed you from each bank. The third column where you write down the interest rates charged and you have to pay from each credit card. And the last input and minimum payments from each credit card.
Try to reset the list of your creditors with creditors who are the biggest interest rates listed top and pay debt and costs (interest) have the greatest first. Monthly installment payment ration of your debts, pay the minimum payment to other debts and the remaining largest nominal debt with interest paid into the most high as above.
Sell your valuables, be cleared deposits and savings and pay all these assets to pay off your debts now. There is no point you have millions of Rupiah deposit rates to 7% per year if you have to pay credit card debt with a 42% interest per year, which means your money minus 35% per year.

Many credit card balance transfer facility is now offering move the alias you credit card debt a long to a new credit card with the lure of lower interest rates.

Your ultimate goal is fixed to eliminate your credit card debt. In conducting these transactions be careful and always read the offer in writing submitted by the credit card issuer. Don’t get caught into the trap of cheap interest rates for a period of time (short) which will then ride became much more expensive than your debt interest rate The edges you will be harmed.

Five Things That Indicate That Your Finances are Healthy
You could say that our financial activity-whether it be credit card debt, monthly expenses, house rent, or bills, home loans can not be separated from our lives. Therefore do not be surprised if the large amount of debt or financial condition we will directly affect the emotional life, physical, and spiritual. Imagine when half of your income should you contribute back to the bank to pay credit card debt every month. It is a sign that you’re driven by money (or debt). Income is no longer a sign that you’re independent, but rather a source of stress due in part to be used to pay off debts. “Women need to build a healthy and honest relationship with money,” says financial expert Suze Orman. “We also need to see this relationship as a reflection of our relationship with ourselves.” It is important to maintain that our financial condition remains healthy. Suze Orman says, there are at least five things that indicate that your finances are healthy enough:
1. You realize with a “money personality” you. This can be seen from your family background, whether your parents invest in property, having an account at a bank that sets interest rates low, mutual funds, or that they are in debt? Your habit of saving and using money, the way you invest, argued about money, and how the financial perspective, partly shaped by how you treat your parents’ money when you were little. Your money personality directly affects your relationship with money, and the more you aware of this, the more you do not depend on money.
2. You dare to take financial risks. Dare to take the financial risk does not necessarily mean you dare to invest Rp 100 million in new business of a friend, or your hobby shop with a credit card bill until you reach hundreds of millions of dollars. Financial risk could also be classified as a smart move, for example if you buy a house as an investment, or looking for ways to earn money from your hobby.
3. You have savings, investments, or credit card account itself. Many women who want to leave their husbands, but could not because they do not have their own income to finance their lives. If you have accounts at the bank itself, it already indicates that you are financially independent women.
4. You have financial goals individually and in pairs. Your goal as a married couple, usually the home is being able to pay bills in a matter of a few years. Your goal as a working woman is to increase income to several million dollars a month. While the husband may also have its own purpose, but related to investment. As a woman who has the freedom to manage earnings, you should also set goals that are separate from your partner.
5. You understand fundamental financial issues. Call it the health insurance, pensions, interest, income taxes, and so forth. The more you master financial problems, the more you become independent, because you know what you should do with your money.
Saving as Your Priority
Strategies for Saving
The trick to saving money is knowing how and make it a habit. There are many ways a more or less we’ve brought in some previous articles in order to achieve the goals that exist.
One important thing to note is that you make saving a priority.
Systematic saving
Now is you should start to save. Many people fail to do and still save money because they impose themselves by reducing the needs of every month. They cut a little spending here and there. While it is still doing that they can only set aside a little each month.
Maybe it is better if you change the scenario of saving. When you learn to pay others first instead of yourself. You pay when you buy a baker of bread, you pay your subscription barber if you finish styling your hair. But the question, when you pay for yourself?
So already you pay for yourself before you pay for someone else.
In our opinion, there is a way where you can pay for yourself, by setting aside 10 percent of revenue n each month in advance. Do after you use it for a month or what’s left, but you have to put it aside in advance.
With a minimum of 10 percent that you paid for yourself, then you will keep laying golden goose that will make you rich. And with the rest of the 90 percent you use to pay for someone else. You will not feel any significant change to the level of your life.
With 10 percent that you set aside, you will maintain a goose laying golden. But with an absolute requirement that must be held, do not ever take away from the funds you set aside 10 percent every month for the future. With 10 percent that you set aside each month will make you wealthy in the future, when retirement comes.
Leveraging debt (credit card) wisely. Credit or debt can be used to benefit the family but on the other hand is also very dangerous. Knowing when it is appropriate and wise to use credit become indispensable.
Debt will always follow the changes in the lives we live. But the debt is taken to be in line with future goals you have set. For example, mortgages or home ownership debt. When according to the needs and financial goals then this is a wise decision. But dig a hole by using credit cards to meet the lifestyle that you can not meet will be very dangerous for the family’s financial future. Look carefully at this before you owe.
Tracking PayPal Account
Two days later the donations started once more, over the course of the next 24 hours someone was dumping a large sum of money into my PayPal account. Now I was starting to get worried! I’ve never heard of a scam where YOU get money, but I figured something was up, so I immediately changed all my passwords, and security questions, and even reformatted my computer.
I tried contacting PayPal but the situation was unique and they aren’t really set up for disputes where you’re contesting all the money coming in. At one point when I finally managed to get to talk to someone, the girl on the other end told me it was mine, and I could spend it.
I managed to find someone in the fraud and abuse department who was able to start tracking the donations that were coming in, and place holds on them, but they were coming in faster than she could stop them, and it eventually took two people to get a hold on things.
WOW! As I’m writing this $1500.00 just came in and my roommate who has been watching the entire proceedings take place is begging me to let her print this. (She’s a journalistic reporter at “The Calgary Herald”. Personally I don’t think anyone would be interested in the inner workings of PayPal or my account, but she seems to think differently. Until Now PayPal has been working with me to try and catch this person and limit the damage that is being done to the many accounts that have been compromised.
I’ve always thought reporters were a little too aggressive with stories and there was middle ground that could easily have been covered, as in this instance. PayPal is a national company that has served me well for a decade now, and I have full faith in the outcome that I have brought to their attention!
PayPal and hacked accounts
Most of you are no doubt familiar with many of the horror stories that surround internet marketers when it comes to PayPal and hacked accounts. Some will have experienced it first hand, while most of you are all too familiar with the customer who simply makes a purchase and then files a chargeback after he’s receives the goods.
In cases like these PayPal almost always sides with the buyer rather than the seller despite the fact that the item is generally (in many of our circumstances) a digital product that is available to the individual immediately following the purchase transaction.
While these are frustrating to say the least they are by no means uncommon. The story I’m about to share with you today however, will be for most of you.
Many website owners and bloggers integrate a simple donation button into their blog so that people who are so inclined, and who felt they got value out of their visit can leave a modest donation to help the site owner with hosting costs, and domain fee’s, etc.
While I don’t have a donation button, I did capitalize on the fact that many others do! I sell a PayPal Donation Script that in no way makes me rich, but does pay most of my hosting bill each month.
Over the last few days I started getting donations sent through the online form. Every few minutes I’d receive a notification telling me I’d received some more money. I didn’t even bother to check for some time because it’s usually just $1.00 in most cases, or even a penny.
When an hour passed and I’d gotten about seven or eight notifications, I decided to log in and see what was up. I’d made just over $600.00 in donations from two individuals with the same last name. COOL!!!
I had a few things I needed for the website, and thought this would be a great time to go ahead and pick up the two programs I needed, and since I now had some extra money

Feel Uncomfortable With The Loans

Are you beginning to feel uncomfortable with the fact that?
Thank God. Discomfort it might instead will save you from debt bondage for life. Money can not buy happiness, but with the money your life easier. But to get the money is not free, you must work for it. Too bad you can not always work, but your life will probably occurred even long after you can not work.
To deal with this natural process, we have been given the productive age for years, but not many people are aware of it. Once they get the jobs and income, just as soon they have a credit card. Instead of putting savings and investments, they buy goods that even his age could be shorter than the installment payment.

Stop Blocking Your Financial Freedom

Stop blocking your financial freedom, do not continuously drain the savings of the future. Debt is the enemy number one who rob dream of many people and most people are completely helpless with debt. Therefore, now is the time to eliminate them.
The mistake that often happens when debt is, taking too much debt, and used for the wrong purposes. Because the debt of so deplete savings, preservation of his property and dug a hole action vent cap from one credit card to another credit card just to be used to meet daily needs.
One might think, just because the bank or credit card company willing to provide loans, they will then necessarily be able to pay the loan back. People get too focused on the amount of monthly payment or interest rate loan instead of realizing that debt is like a cancer that could undermine their financial health conditions. The person paying the interest payable from time to time, which of course will only enrich the banks and credit card companies, on the contrary more and unwittingly make us poor. It’s as well, we still wonder why it always runs out of money.
