Making changes to processes in an active business is like changing the tires on a car at highway speed. It may be worth it in the long run, but it’s a huge challenge in the short run. The best way to approach such transitions is to find the slowest possible times of the year to implement changes.

One time of the year that things slow down just enough to make some changes is the first couple of months of the year. Everything is closed out and cleared out, and you can start the new calendar with some new techniques. And if you’re just now venturing into business, start on the right foot.

If you felt that 2015 had too much complexity, too many errors, and not enough good news from taxes, look through some of the possibilities for saving in 2016.

When we moved to our home in 2014, it needed some work, not exactly repair work but remodel work. Like painting, some landscaping fixes. Moving dog-bitten plantation shutters out, resealing windows and doors, etc. We could have hired professionals or at least, a handyman could do those things. But we decided to do it ourselves. Firstly, to save some money, and secondly, we wanted to do those. You know, being a first-time homeowner.

14 Creative Ways to Pay for a Home Remodel

But you may not be as lucky as we were. Your home might need some serious repair and remodeling. Unfortunately, not all of us can afford to gut and rebuild our homes to our exact requirements and specifications. This doesn’t mean, however, that you have to just learn to live with what you’ve got.

There is great debate over when the best time is to sell your home, with many people considering warm weather a plus when putting a property on the market while others believe the winter months could be best.

Did you ever ask yourself how banks can make such an insane amount of money? Well, that’s a long story, but one reason is that every time when you transfer funds internationally, you will pay a fee. Sometimes it’s a percentage, sometimes a fixed amount, and sometimes the fee is hidden in another item, for example in an exchange rate. But in one way or another, you pay, that’s for sure.

On the first glimpse, these fees seem to be small, but they can add up quickly. If you transfer money internationally on a regular base, for example because you are a global freelancer, it can happen quickly that you’re paying more than $1,000 per year, only to make transactions.

When my husband and I moved from Pennsylvania to Florida, we visited nearly every apartment complex in a 30-mile radius to find just the right mix of safety, convenience, and affordability. We had a strict budget of $1,000 a month for a 2-bedroom home that would also allow us to bring our dog.

Negotiating Rent

After driving hundreds of miles in circles through every neighborhood, we did find a fantastic apartment right under our budget at $950 that was in a lovely location.

Forex traders have a lot riding on the trades that they place on a regular basis.  Without the comfort of working with a solid forex broker, and being able to rely on the forex platform that one trades on, a forex trader might not be able to sleep at night.  There are numerous elements that are associated with a forex trading platform, and if the forex trader does not do sufficient homework they will potentially have issues down the road.

Forex Trading

It’s very rare for a school to offer financial courses, let alone require them. Although there are strong benefits from children having the opportunity to learn both at school and at home, the responsibility usually lies squarely on the shoulders of parents. Unfortunately, family financing is not commonly discussed in most households.

6 Financial Truths Your Kids Should Learn from You

On money matters, parents may sometimes say they’re tight on cash, or that they’re saving, but if a family budget happens to exist, it’s not something kids are exposed to. As a whole, Canadians now owe $1.57 trillion, a figure that works out to more than $20,000 per person. Debts are climbing across the board, and the behaviors that have caused this are being installed as normal in today’s generation.
