1) Revenue – Investment = expenses - The most common logic when we spend a lot of money is: we have a job, we have an income, then we spend most of our income, and what leftover after our spends, we invest.
But, if we want to discover how to save money with low income and how to make money, we must change that logic to: we have a job, we have an income, then we INVEST most of our income, and then what leftover we spend.
Of course, is probably you can’t invest most of our income, but the important here is the mentality: first, you invest. Secondly, you spend.
You must PAY YOUSERLF FIRST. When you understand that and applies it, you’ll change instantly.
2) Buy it tomorrow
Many studies have shown that when we buy a product, our happiness doesn’t come from the benefit the product give to us, but, the happiness come from the ANTECIPATION of buying de product. Is not a happiness that come from the product, but a happiness that come from the acting of buying.
So, what’s is the big deal? Simple: when you’ll buy something, just buy it tomorrow. When you do that, you give time to your brain ratiocinate your buy and really understands if this buy in fact are good, or if is just an impulsion made by your emotions.
3) THE THREE "I"s
This trick is nice as a complement of the other tricks. This method I made with a friend of mine, and the idea behind is rationalize even more your acting of buying.
He is made for two types of buy: the emotional buy, and the rational one.
In these buys, we have different structures:
Emotional Buy: I want / Now? / I can? / Cheap or Expensive? / Yes or No
Rational Buy: I need / Now? / I Can? / If no, I can sell something to can? / Yes or No
So, when you separate your buy in these steps, you can really think about that, and establish the item that you want to buy is really worth it, or no.
