Tax Rebates Checks Wrong

According to the Internal Revenue Service, that about 350, 000 households are not getting the $300 per child owed them as part of their economic stimulus rebate payments. They said that it was a human error and computer glitches that were responsible of the problem. But the the taxpayers that was affected of that said glitches can still get the remainder. The IRS said that they will send letters to those who missed out on the refund and that checks for the child credit will be mailed out in July. So if someone got their stimulus check already and wondering it was not the full amount as the government was promised, don't worry about it because IRS still owe you and you will get it soon.

But for us, since ours is not a direct deposit to our bank, we haven't get the stimulus check yet. Hopefully we'll get it by June..

How to Fix Our Broken Budget...

Because of the economic situation, everything goes up in price but our wages remains the same. And, I know that many of us has hard time budgeting of the little amount that we got from our source of income.

While I was browsing online, I read an article about steps on fixing our broken budget. And following are the summary:

*First steps, is understand your motivation- The writer said that budget often fails because they lack a sense of purpose.

In other words we need to have motivation on why we are doing the budget, it's not just because somebody told us.

* Know Your Numbers, meaning track all our expenses. And yes, we can not always track our expenses especially if we spend at small amount, like $ 6 here and there. And when we think of $6 is only a small amount but if we will put all we spent together, that would be a lot of money. So, I agree that we missed tracking our expenses that makes us out of budget.

*Get Real..like for example, if the budget for our groceries is like $ 200 a week, if we can we will stick to that. But for two of us only in our household, $200 groceries will last as 2 weeks.

*Find a system that works for you---Our budget our lifestyle and personality. Kung sosyal at magastos , and are always going out for party, of course you will be out of budget. And I agree, that even us, We don't go out that much but still we need to have on a budget so we can pay all the bills that we have.

*Stay Flexible---There are times that we like to spend, we like to buy a certain stuff for our self or for our household needs. But, the writer said on "stay flexible", be careful to make sure we have the money somewhere before we spend it.

Do You Get Mad?

Has someone asked you that question? I think that's a weird question cause I know everybody gets mad. Two nights ago, while having some conversation with my co-workers at work, one of them asked me this question, Retchel, Do you get mad?, so I said...of course I do!, Do you want me to see how am I when I get mad?...and we were laughing. They said, they can't figure out if I get mad, maybe because they haven't seen me or heard me getting mad like them. Because I am not like mostly of them that complains everything, even simple stuff, you know what I mean, seems like they don't like to work...in other words, "lazy". Every single night they are bitching, because of this and that...because they don't like to do that stuff..they want to do on their own way not the residents way which is not right. I just don't want to get in trouble, I am trying to be friendly with them so I don't complain to our superior.

And this makes me think, Why Americans likes to complain? hmm what do you think?

Are You in Debt?

I think it is normal to have debt. People who do not have debt do not exist of this world. Even millionaires has millions of debts also. But you know, it is not bad if you have debts as long as as you are capable of paying them off on a certain time based on what you have promised to pay. Due to the economic problem that we are going through right now, may of us cannot afford anymore to pay off our debts. But there are some individual who are working on a company that will advice us on how to get rid of our debts. So, if you have problem managing your debts, seek some debt advice from experts who are willing to help you and get back your feet from the ground.

What is My Prority?

What's Important to You... And What Isn't:

For you, primal needs like eating and sleeping are your top priorities. You don't mind having things to get done... as long as they don't pile up on you. Your most important priorities get your attention. You are happily able to let the less important things slide. You want money to be a high priority, but you don't often get around to it.

The Priority Test

Somewhat, this is true. Sleeping is my priority,but If I have things that needs to get done on a certain time, that's my priority. Like our bills, I always track our bills, when its due, so I can pay it on time cause I don't want to pay late fees when we pay after the due date. Above all, Money is my top priority. I am sure that's yours too, and don't tell me no, cause you are lying. If you are rich, of course money is not in your list, but how come you're blogging for money? right? so you need money like I do...*wink*
