Easy costs to cut when you’re broke.

We have all been in a situation where money gets tight.

I’ve been there myself. When I found myself without a job and going through major health complications, I had to figure out what costs to cut that would have the least impact on my life. With my biggest revenue stream gone, I had to figure out how to manage my life and not destroy my credit. Some of the first things to go were my tv subscriptions, haircuts, fast food, gym membership, and even moved out of my apartment. What I learned was that the things we have are just things and can be replaced. Starting over was the best thing that could have happened.
