DINC MONEY SAVING TIPS

Time to get off that hamster wheel of spending, you are not going to get the nut.  When it comes to impulse buying, retailers, particularly on-line retailers, know how to make you jump.  How about a 28 day rehab?  Live a spartan existence for one month, only buying things that you need to survive and maybe this cleansing will not only short circuit some bad habits, you could save the difference and invest like a champ.  

Cell phone bills are automatic and so should your monthly investing. By simply opting for auto-pay ($5-$10 off monthly bill) and dropping insurance (if you have the guts, or an older phone) could save you over $300 per year. When it comes to your phone, live life on the edge and invest the difference.  

As spring follows winter, your lawn season begins in earnest.  Typical professional landscaping can cost $100-$200 per month or more. DIY and not only will you save about $2000 per year, think of all the steps you are getting…Invest the money and watch that grow too.  

Cut the cord and then cut the bill.  Typical cable bills are $100 and up per month. How many times can you watch “Good Times” or “Mayberry RFD” without totally losing your mind? Get your TV through Disney Plus, Netflix, and HBO and save over $50 per month.  With the savings we can buy the stocks of Disney, Netflix, and AT&T instead!  

When it comes to cell phones, more is less, and adding lines actually subtracts fees.  According to Nerd Wallet, going from a solo line to four lines with your closest friends will save you $25 per month or $100 for all four of you.  DINC’s are team players!
