Mother's day is approaching.
Are you ready with a special gift for your beloved mother? For those people who are knee deep in credit card debt, the best thing you could give to your mum is your love.
Your mother must be very worried about your financial situation.
In order to reduce her stress, you are advised to be a good and responsible person.
Here are 5 things your mother would want you to avoid: 1.
Quit your job The job market is very competitive now and it is indeed difficult for a person to get a job with stable income.
Even you dislike your current job; you are not supposed to quit your job.
Without a stable monthly income, how are you going to pay off your credit card debt? Your mother will be depressed if you are unemployed.
2.
Borrow money from your family members or relatives Your mother loves you.
She may utilize her savings to assist you to solve your debt issues.
However, she feels bad when you borrow money from other family members or relatives.
Being a mother, she feels embarrassed if her son or daughter needs to borrow from someone she knows.
3.
Start a new business or look for new investment During economy downturn, it is not wise for you to start a new business.
Your mum will definitely be very worried if you venture into a new business with all sorts if financial risks waiting for you.
You are advised to try new business after you have got rid of your debt.
Same thing applies to investment.
Do not invest on shares or unit trusts during economy crisis.
4.
Apply for new loan Since you are burdened with large sum of outstanding balances, never ever create new debt for yourself.
Before you erase your credit card debt, you are not supposed to apply for new car loan, house loan or study loan.
It will make your financial situation worse.
5.
Eat out everyday If possible, you should avoid yourself from dining outside everyday.
Do you know that your wallet will be cleaned out faster if you eat out everyday? If you love your mother, go home and eat with her.
Your mum's cooking is always much better than the food in restaurants.
Being a filial son or daughter is not difficult.
What you need to do is to put in your effort to become debt free.
Eliminating all your outstanding balances is the most important task you should complete in order to make your dear mother happy.
Last but not the least; besides looking for ways to eliminate your debts, you are reminded to allocate some money for emergency fund.
Make sure you have proper preparation.
Don't let your mother down.
Happy Mother's Day to all caring mother!
