Most of us are not millionaires and billionaires so we can't buy everything that we see. Which means we have to make smart choices with how we spend our money. Case in point, I was at the comic book store yesterday and the owner showed me five near if not mint condition She-Ra figures that he recently bought from a seller. I would love to buy them because I know they would make a great collector's item and they are in excellent condition but it's the price that's stopping me. It's a lot of money perhaps too much money for something that will only sit on a shelf.
This had me thinking about what's the best way to make good financial decisions. How do you know when to pass up on something or simply go for it? I know my collector's heart would love to have those figures but my fiscally responsible brain is saying absolutely not.
Since saving money is important to me, I guess that has to be one of the top factors in most of my money decisions. I'm not a financial expert but I'm making a more conscious effort to learn as much as I can about money. I want to figure out the best ways to save and earn money and to make sure I have money saved up for emergencies and for my future.
I still haven't made my up my mind on whether or not to buy the She-Ra figures but I'll let you know when I do.
