Everyone should save at least some part of their income each month. Even if you can only save $100, or $50. Even $10. It all adds up in the end. But what if you could save $1000 a month? That would really be something, wouldn't it? That could mean enough savings for a deposit on an apartment, the new car you dreamed of, an exotic foreign holiday or a number of smaller treats. In this brilliantly insightful book, How to Save Money Without Really Trying, A Step-by-Step Guide to Saving $1000 Per Month, Kate Robinson will show you how to manage your income in dozens of different ways, so that you can have the extra cash you want when you need it. From sensible budgeting to paying the bills, this book looks at every aspect of what could be described as everyday finances, while also looking at some unusual ways to save money, such as creating a 'penalty jar' or having a 'no spending day' once a week. Not all of the money saving tips will be possible for you to do. Some of them are effortless, while others will take will-power and some sacrifice. But there enough of them, crammed into this little gem of a book, that you are bound to find something which will lead to savings somewhere in your daily life.
