Money Rule$

Money



We all love it, we all need it, and we all want more and more of it everyday!

The biggest problem that happens with our money when we get it, is that we usually spend it (sometimes all of it). Then we have to work to make up what we lost when we could've added to the numbers we already had.

Everyone's guilty for doing this, so never feel bad or disappointed in yourself about how you manage your finances.

First Banks gives a 5-Tip Money Saving article to help, not only young adults, but college students and young business owners. (There is also some tricks on how you can gain money while your in  school, too).

Tip 1 - You want to make a budget for yourself. As a college student, budget out how much your willing to spend and save for the week. Also think about what your money is going to go towards. If something doesn't meet your budget, and you MUST have it/go to it, then you need to plan out how your going to earn your money back. This same thing can go for those who aren't in school or own a business as well.

Tip 2 - Saving and Investing is your best friend! By making a creative money jar to store a few dollars, you can easily see how big of an impact saving can do for your finances. For people who aren't into actually "saving" cash, just simply open up a savings account. This can be very helpful because some bank accounts will actually charge you to withdraw money from your savings account. Try and use your budget (like we talked about in Tip 1) to plan how much money you're going to put into your savings for the month. When it comes to investing, there are some great apps that can assist you with learning how to invest and managing it.

Acorns
Stash
Clink
- Robinhood
- Fundrise

Its Get Involved Season

Happy November Ladies and Gentlemen, With the year of 2018 coming to end, let’s take a time to look back and reflect on everything we learned from, struggled with, or conquered through this year. Indeed, this year we experienced a lot of movements created from the social aspects of our society that branched out from numerous of topics. There were quite a handful of movements that were relatable and some that were an eye opener. Today were going to focus only on two; however, I’ll still list others that may interest you as well. The #MeTooMovement is a female empowering movement that aims to scream out to the entire world “DON’T COUNT ME OUT”. Women matter! It has been quite the fight to get the American Nation to still see women’s work equaled to man’s work. Women still get more rules and regulations in a work force, less pay, and no emotional support in anything they work for. With the #MeTooMovement, Women are able to be united and voice their concerns that they have and c...

Someone Great (Review)

Someone Great , a Netflix film that was released last month in April is starting to become widely talked about all through social media. "Relatable", "Powerful", "Emotional" and "Close to home" are all the words and phrases that can be used to describe this outstanding film. This film starring Regina Rodriguez as Jenny, a music journalist preparing to move to California, shows the true emotions of a women during a post breakup.

What makes this movie so relatable and powerful to women? The random flashbacks that show viewers how beautiful the relationship was, how it lead to the couple b...
