Tips for living on a fixed income

Article Abstract:

Planning ahead and investing for the future are important considerations if one wants to live successfully on a fixed income. To better ensure that there will be money for one's retirement, one must also increase one's sources of income as well as cut down on expenses. It would help if one were to seriously consider other cost-saving strategies, such as traveling off-season or opting for cheaper airline rates, using library books instead of buying them in bookstores, and purchasing exercise equipment rather than signing up for health club membership.

Making time for yourself when you work all the time

Article Abstract:

People can be so caught up in their work that they forget to spend time for themselves and their families. To avoid falling into this trap, they should always allot time for solitude to contemplate on their lives or enjoy pleasant activities. At work, they should take short breaks during which they can relax and refresh. They should also exercise deep breathing, which can be quite soothing. Time management tips include listening to audiotapes while driving, writing a things-to-list and learn how to say no.
