America is spending too much money!

Hello

We are spending too much money! Watching Suze Orman on Oprah today really touched home, America is spending too much money. We indeed want the best of everything or pretty close to it. Is that brand new car an extension of you? Hope not! We have lost our way about money, which includes me.

I love to spend money, even money I don't have. Sometimes I feel like an addict, I have to buy something everyday. Heaven help me! I do have weakness and managing money is one of them. I really never prayed about it, because I never saw it a big problem. My husband has told me numerous times that I had a problem, but he might as well been talking to the wall. Thank God he is very good at saving; he could squeeze a dollar until the eagle holler.

I learned on Oprah that IRA’S and 4OK’S are protected against bankruptcy. Also don’t be a lump sum investor, and do extensive homework on mutual funds. Oprah teaches a web class on saving the earth, you can see that she loves life too. Oprah is a millionaire and she seems concerned about money. If I were Oprah I wouldn’t care about saving money, I would just make sure I don’t run out. Suze has a book out titled, “Woman and Money” which I’m going to Oprah .com to read.

Loving life,
Angela
