Wealth Today

I’ve been thinking, and I’ve discovered a few things that I think would make us more successful, both socially and financially, if we implemented them in our daily To Do list. Many of these are common sense, and maybe we already do these on some kind of regular basis. But when it comes to our daily To Do List, they should be there, but they probably aren’t.

1. Review yesterday
2. Make someone happy
3. Brainstorm
4. Make a new friend
5. Give something away
6. Learn something
7. Invest in yourself
8. Invest in a partner (spouse, family, friend)
9. Surprise yourself
10. Plan for tomorrow

Yesterday, I took advantage of the $25 bonus with ING Direct. I opened an account at ING Direct savings account with an opening balance of $250 on a referral from a friend. I should get the bonus deposit in 30 days. I’m excited to finally get started on an emergency fund account. This marks the first achievement of my 2006 goals and new years resolutions.
