Ignore Their Figures

There are so many figures from different agencies used to describe the state of the nation’s economy. Some give a positive outlook, others a negative outlook. It appears that you can grab figures to suit whatever your argument might be at any given time. Sometimes the same statistics can be used to tell different stories. The actual state of the economy is anyone’s guess.

It’s time to ignore the lot from now on, and forget those you may have already heard. I agree with the Barefoot Investor when he featured on channel 10’s ‘7pm Project’. He suggested focusing on your own household budget.

So how is the household budget going? Do you have one for starters? Spending within your means? Able to save and invest?

Work on this and it won’t matter what any politician might say. Your household budget should be able to withstand any crisis.
