Highly recommended...................



 Save.  Just save.  You don't need a specific reason to save.  It's great to save for a car, or a down payment, or a medical emergency.  But saving for things that are impossible to predict or define is one of the best reasons to save.  Everyone's life is a continuous chain of surprises.  Savings that aren't earmarked for anything in particular is a hedge against life's inevitable ability to surprise the hell out of you at the worst possible moment.

Be nicer and less flashy.  No one is impressed with your possessions as much as you are.  You might think that you want a fancy car or a nice watch.  But what you probably want is respect and admiration.  And you're more likely to gain those things through kindness and humility than horsepower and chrome.

Define the game you're playing, and make sure your actions are not being influenced by people playing a different game.

Respect the mess.  Smart, informed, and reasonable people can disagree in finance, because people have vastly different goals and desires.  There is no single right answer, just the answer that works for you.
