Super Single Moms

Single moms are definitely of different breed. The strength and resilience in being both a father and mother to their children is something that has continued to amaze others, myself included. Faced with motivations that are larger than their life, they find themselves digging to where others have never dug before.
Single moms provide more than just inspirational stories. As a matter of fact, they have the most well-thought and executed financial plan that I have ever witness prompting me to believe that all of us can learn more than just a thing or two from them.

The Greatest Financial Mystery …and how to solve it.
The Greatest Financial Mystery…and how to solve it
by: Kendrick Chua, The Wealth Warrior
For all corporate employees, the feeling of seeing your ATM (paycheck is so old fashion) account be filled with your salary is so empowering. The surge of endorphins no doubt gives you that sense of jubilation for the next two weeks (or until you receive your salary again). You start to think about buying those clothes, shoes or gadgets that you swear you really need. And so even before that money is withdrawn, it is already spent.
This applies to all level of income. That is why a mystery as enigmatic as the Lochness Monster, the Big Foot and the Easter Island Statues continue to haunt us, mostly after two weeks from the withdrawal-”Where did all my money go?”
There are variations to this mystery. At times, it is “Why hasn’t my savings gone up despite my salary increase” or “Why did I end up short this month?”
All sounds familiar?
