Look For Money Leaks In Budget

LAFAYETTE — Has all the stretch gone out of your budget 9 Don’t put the entire blame on rising prices and higher taxes. If money goes faster than the month at your house, chances are your budget suffers from money leaks, says Dr. Jan Armstrong, extension consumer marketing specialist at Purdue university. Leaks in money management are common. Money can spring a leak for several reasons: poor buymanship, lack of a plan, or poor communication. The result? Not enough money to cover the wants and needs of the family. Almost everyone has been guilty of poor buymanship at one time or another. Take a look around your house. Are there kitchen utensils, workshop tools, or other items you bought but never use? Do you have vacuum cleaner or sewing machine attachments you never take out of their boxes? Clothes that are never worn? Fabric for dresses you’ve never made? If so, you need to brush up on buymanship. One of the most frequent causes of poor buymanship is impulsive spending — spending without prior thought. Impulsive spending often wastes money. Even if a pair of S2O shoes is marked down to $3, they aren’t a bargain unless they fill a need and you will use them. Another money waster is a weakness for a particular type of spending. Some people can’t pass a record display without buying. Others can’t resist fishing gear, books, tools, or jewelry. You can put a plug in this money leak by recognizing the weakness and building up a resistance to it. Associating the best with the most expensive is a buymanship error that can cause gaping leaks in a budget. If you always select the highest price tag, don’t think you’re always getting the best product. Manufacturers often produce items of similar value but attach varying price tags, Dr. Armstrong says. Many buymanship problems could be solved if people were willing to admit, “We just can’t

afford it right now.”4f people would accept the limits of their budgets, they would not be shamed into buying. Another source of money leaks is lack of a spending plan, the specialist says. Forgotten expenditures have away of jumping out at you toward the end of the month — when you’re already low on cash. So plan for all expenditures at the beginning of the month. Don’t forget to plan for working expenses, transportation, dues, gifts, cleaning supplies, toilet articles, pets, and taxes. Lack of family communication can also cause money leaks. Parents with a Santa Claus complex never say, “We can’t afford it.” Instead they dole out money to the children before the bills are paid. And what happens? The children ride to school on 10 speed bicycles while the parents struggle to avoid the bill collector for just another month! Neither children or budgets benefit from this Santa Claus attitude. Such an attitude gives children a false impression about money and forces leaks in a budget. These leaks can be patched by opening up the lines of family communication, Dr. Armstrong says. A simple discussion about the demands on your budget can help children understand why they can’t have everything they want. Such a discussion can help children be more realistic spenders as well as clog up your money leaks. SUMMER COMPANY RETURNS HOME Mrs. Louis Siri and family of Shorewood, Wis., returned to their Wisconsin home following a summer stay with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lyle Seiffert of Lake Wawasee. Another daughter, Mrs. George Hay 111, Goshen, returned home Monday following a six week stay in the Seifert home.
