Investor

I did it. I bought my first stocks today. I am so excited. I enrolled in a program that will purchase shares of stocks on a monthly basis. I have the funds coming out of one of my "inactive" accounts. I have money deposited into it from my paycheck but it is not my expense account or bill paying account. I am determined to change my tomorrow one small step at a time.

Also, I have a small box where I put $7 a week in my closet. $7 is one less trip to McDonald's for happy meals. The purpose of that shoe box is self control and it helps me see the bigger picture. At the end of the year, I will have $365 in that shoe box. Rather than looking at it as $1 a day. I see it as $365. Perception is key to changing our reality.
