Rule # 1 – Read the fine print.  Sometimes we are being taken advantage of and we don’t even know it.  We can protect ourselves from fees, penalties and other possible expenses by reading the fine print before signing anything.

Why you need to do it: Reading the fine print before you sign anything from a credit card application to a prenuptial agreement is a must-do.  Financial advisors and lawyers can explain an overview of the contract but if you really want to know what will happen in the worst case scenario it’s a good idea to read the fine print.

 

Rule # 2 – Delay consumption.  You may really want something, but if you think about it for a few days you may discover that you don’t really need it.

Why you need to do it: I was the queen of over spending and impulse spending when I was in my 20s.  Now I obsess over ever single purchase before I buy it, but only if it’s over $5.  If I want something and it’s less than $5 I just buy it and try not to feel guilty about it afterwards.  The feeling of guilt that comes with spending money can be overwhelming so think about your purchase before you buy them to avoid the guilty gut feeling.

 

Rule # 3 – Spend less than you earn.   Preet Banerjee says that “spending less than you earn is the cornerstone of financial stability” and as a financial planner I agree with him 100%.

Why you need to do it:  This is the golden rule of finance.  If you always spend less than you make each month, or better year each pay check, you will always have money in the bank and you will avoid using credit.

  • Best piece of financial advice is to take advantage of any RRSP matching offered by your employer. It encourages you to save, and if you don’t, you’re leaving free money on the table.

  • Reevaluate everything, rates, fees, payments etc, at least once a year, totally, because keeping up with all that stuff is difficult and you can get dinged w charges here, there and everywhere.
