A Picture of Wealth – How Do You Define Wealth? How Does It Define You?
If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You can also subscribe to Time To Budget by Email.Thanks for visiting!
How do you define wealth?
Do you define wealth by the amount of money you have?
Do you define wealth by the amount of toys you have?
Do you define wealth by your status or power?
Or?
Do you define wealth by the love of your family?
By the safety and security of your family?
By a life fulfilled and loved?
The wealth you seek now defines how you will be remembered and whether your life was picture of true wealth.
True wealth has nothing to do with money, status or power.

Smart Money Management Will Always Be a Win Win Situation
I think there are many people in this world that view personal finances as a separate force that can not be controlled. I talk to many people about finances and it seems that people talk about their finances like they wish they could poker tour pcomaha poker in lineapoker games gratispoker itgambling pokerpoker machine gratisgiochi di poker da scaricarescarica giochi pokerpoker holdem gratisregole gioco pokerstri pokergioco poker freewaretexas holdem no limitgioca poker on linevideo poker per pc gratisparty poker downloadgioco texas holdemgiocare poker gratisstrip poker game online,strip poker online gratis,strip poker onlinestreep poker on linegiochi 7 card stud gratistexas holdem romagiochi online poker gratispoker tournament softwarepoker virtualehollywood pokertornei di pokerpoker no onlinepoker tour italiapoker slot gratispoker texanogiochi roulette gratiscasino italiani con bonusaprire un casino onlineblack jack in lineai migliori casino onlineall slots casinodomande casino on net,casino on net,casino on net 2000download video poker gratis,giochi gratis video poker,video poker gratisgiocare baccaratslots machinescasino online in italiaroulette americanacasino con bonuscasino gratis senza depositogiochi keno gratis in lineacasino gioca gratis,giochi casino da scaricare gratis,casino gratiscasino italiani on linegiochi black jackcasino 10 euro gratis have control over it. Sometimes I hear people talk about their finances like they are gambling. “You win some, you loose some”.
In many cultures today we are being taught to not be wise with our finances all the while thinking we are being wise. The first thing we are told after we graduate from high school is that we need to ‘build our credit’. So we get that first credit card and then it’s all down hill from there. We are teaching our kids that the way to be smart financially is to go into debt as a right of passage into adulthood. If you think about it, telling a teenager that going into debt is a smart financial decision is the most absurd advice ever given. By sending young adults into the world with a credit card user mind, we are apart of a cycle of poor money management.
Debt is not something that should be sought after, it should be something we run from. Doing everything humanly possibly to stay out of debt while seeking the true keeper of our funds and supplier of our needs (God), at all steps of our financial journey is the best way to view debt.
A win win financial situation is a life of budgeting, spending less than we earn, saving, investing, giving and staying out of debt. We are not gamblers of our personal finances, we are handlers our personal finances. Be smart and learn smart money management.

Financial Peace University – Coordinator News
As I have mentioned before, my husband and I are coordinating an FPU class at our church. The promotional material offered by FPU is great this time around. The last time we coordinated the FPU classes there was not that much to choose from in way of promotion. We are following the promotion suggestions offered on one of the CD we received.Their suggestions were very helpful in coordinating the classes.
They suggest that most churches should give a month for promotion before the preview. Here are the promotion time lime they recommend.
Week One
- Get promo posters up
- Printed promotional material added to church bulletins
Week Two
- Keep filling church bulletins with printed promotional material.
- Show a preview video during service.
Week Three
- Show a longer Preview video with announcement
Week Four
- Live testimony of someone who has gone through the course.
Week of Preview
- Have the pastor or church leader announce his/her support of the class.
Don’t forget to promote class outside of church.
We showed the preview last Sunday and it went ok. We thought there would be more sign ups but we still have time to promote the class. FPU was a life changing course for us and we hope that others will be willing to be apart of it and learn how to manage their money better.
More information on Financial Peace University. Take the course. You won’t regret it.
