Hit The Pause Button

I’m Miriam Neff, and I’m Valerie Neff Hogan, with Wise Women Managing Money.

M Are you in the middle of transitions that rock your bank account and your sense of security?  Here’s important advice.  Don’t make any major decisions for a while.  Folks quickly marry the wrong person to fill a void, sell homes, put down payments on a different living space, a car when their minds are muddy with stress and numbness.

V Some changes may be necessary such as relinquishing an expensive leased car.  You may need to get rid of every not vital costs--cable, smart phones.  Those changes are good.  But wait on longer and bigger commitments.  Settle your life, your emotions, hit the pause button.

M Decisions will be better and fit the realities of your new life.
