Great (((((Mercury)))). Thank you very much. That is. To have a budget of expenditures and moderate savings each month (1% - 5% - 10% on total income), what each one can afford. It means, not to create more debt, because the US economy has already too much debt. We have to balance it with some savings, little by little, step by step.
It does not mean to be like the banker of Mary Poppins (I hope you have watched that movie). Life it to enjoy it, but only as much as we can afford today. Again. Thank you very much and another tight hug. (((((Mercury))))) Peace and best wishes.
