Holiday Debt with Harvey Warren
Consumer debt expert,
Harvey Warren is here today to show how to beat those holiday debt blues. If you're like us, we plan on a budget for the holidays, but shortly after, it all goes out the window. Well today Harvey will give you some easy steps to make sure you don't bust your wallet this holiday season including:
1. Make a list and set the price you want to pay for each person- also known as "a budget." – Impulse buying is what gets most holiday shoppers in trouble.
2. Wrap up your credit card – wrapping your card in a plastic sleeve will make you think twice before spending
3. Give gifts that keep on giving – books vs. video games; knowledge will continue to bring value
4. Make it personal – you'll save money and it will mean more
5. Make a small charitable donation to your favorite cause in someone's name - $10 donation you can help someone in need and control your spending. $10 can go a long way in the right charity (feed a child for a month, simple antibiotics save lives, etc.…).
