1. First, take the nmonnt you ought to
save out of your earnings and use thelialance to
live on.
2. Calculate your Periodic Expenses, and
to pay them deposit a proportionate amount each
pay day in a Special Thrift Account.
3. Never go into debt for anything that
will depreciate in value unless it will save you
money in operating your business or reduce the
labor or expense in running your home.
If you are to make these principles work: You must make
thrift your first obligation. You must spend the balance carefully.
You must not draw on your Thrift Account for current expenses.
You must not buy things that you cannot afford.
Save First; Look Ahead ; Keep Out of Debt—these are the
commandments of financial success.
