It really is the foundation of all financial resolutions. Not always easy to manage though when life throws one of those blizzard expense phases your way, but definately worth long term use. .-= Kevin@OutOfYourRut´s last blog ..<a href="http://outofyourrut.com/blog/2010/01/10/restaurant-tipping-how-much-and-when/" rel="nofollow">Restaurant Tipping – How Much and When?</a> =-.

That should throw the Honeybee for a loop. ;-) Nobody should ever beat themselves up for unexpected and uncontrolled expenses. Life happens to all of us. Although we can all try to minimize the adverse impacts of those blizzard expense phases by slowly and steadily building up our rainy-day funds over time. I like that!

In theory I'd like to write like this too - taking time and real effort to make a good article... but what can I say... I procrastinate alot and never seem to get something done.
