Always remember to make smart decisions and do your own research! Pay Yourself First!!! How I first heard of the concept Allocate a percentage of your wages say 5% or 10% or more Put your name on the bill column Do it before the bills Move to a separate account  Can be accessible or locked away in a pension Direct debit or standing order Automatic payments The advantage of the earlier you start the better due to magic of compounding Helps with budgeting, how little can I live on this month? Automation creates momentum and momentum is key Importance of taking care of yourself first Always save before you spend, money left in your account if you're like me you'll find a way to spend it. Be mindful if you owe high interest credit cards or other types consumer debt Honourable mentions: Julio De Laffitte https://youtu.be/nSXpmjNP2Ug - City Boys R Us https://youtu.be/0cps1sWxvHs  - Book: The Richest Man in Babylon by George S Clason - Podcast:   https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/superb-diamond-range/id930684983?mt=2     https://podcasts.google.com/?feed=aHR0cDovL3N1cGVyYmRpYW1vbmRyYW5nZS5saWJzeW4uY29tL3Jzcw     https://tunein.com/podcasts/Educational/Superb-Diamond-Range-p677627/     https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/libsyn-9/superb-diamond-range   Follow on:   https://twitter.com/superbdiamondra     https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCztKXSrR8fC4CbVVJ9aC8_w   Contact the show:   [email protected]
