Bipolar Disorder and Making Money by Saving Money

How about that picture from the past! Woo!

I know that many people with bipolar disorder- myself included- have challenges with money. It’s not always easy to work steadily when you have mood swings.

I heard a advertisement on the radio this morning that really, really made sense. It said,

Saving Money is the Same Thing as Making Money

Agreed. Every bill that is paid on time is saving money because it saves a late fees.

Every cell phone plan that is watched carefully for mistakes and unknown charges saves money.

Always check to see if you have said yes to a ‘free month’ of a subscription service and then forgot to cancel. Amazon.com is notorious for getting people to sign up for ‘free’ previews that we then forget to cancel.

In other words, if we do things that cost us money for no reason- we lose money. This is the same as working for nothing.

I like the idea of saving money by being smart with our money. And most of all…. check your cable bill if you have one! They are notorious for hidden and added fees.
