Pay Yourself First

This is perhaps the best and most simple benefit to becoming financially literate. You get into the habit of paying yourself first. This is definitely a good thing and something most of us are not used to. BEFORE you pay one bill I don't care what it is - mortgage/rent, cell phone, cable, etc - You Pay YOURSELF First! Make it a habit to put aside a certain amount - no matter how big or small from $.50 cents to $1,000 and PAY Yourself - You, Inc. This is such an empowering move for you.
