Should a Child Spend The Whole Dollar?

By Mikael

Listening to Jim Rohn is something that I do on a regular basis in order to get my head strait. Life happens to all of us and sometimes we all need a reminder of when, why and what to keep our focus on.

It is actually far worse because most of them are liabilities and we don’t even realize it. Many of us have been told by our parents, bankers and the media that we should buy a house because it is an investment and a great asset. From an accountant’s point of view that might be true but the fact is that a house is nothing but a liability that is sucking on our paycheck every single month. Does this mean that you shouldn’t buy a house? No of cause not because a house ha... Read more
