It is important to be financially aware of what we are doing and how we are managing our money. More than earning money, it is important to know how to keep them safe or plan on saving them. There is no harm in doing a lot of spending but we have to be aware of the good places where we are spending.

When it comes to saving or spending money, people make mistakes, which can be a common mistake too.

Lending money to a friend

There is no harm in lending money to a friend. We have to support our friends when they are in need. But we have to understand our financial situation and plan our finances accordingly. We have to be clear on what type of lending we would be doing. We shouldn't be lending to a friend who may not give it back to us. There should be clarity when the lending happens. Sometimes we don't expect after we lend money to a friend. In that case, it is okay but if we plan on doing something with that money, then we have to be a little careful.

Doing bad investments

Investments can sometimes end up bad. We can be a reason for it and sometimes it is hard to predict who could be the reason for it. There are some instances where we might intentionally make some bad investments. We have to be very careful about it. Especially when we don't have any additional source of income, we have to be very careful with the investments we are doing with our primary source of income.

Spending on Luxuries

Luxuries are sometimes important and sometimes they are not. Basics are definitely important and if we have to sacrifice some sophistication to save money, it is a good thing. Before we spend our money on some of the luxuries, we have to think multiple times on whether we need it or not. If we don't need something, it is good to avoid and when others are buying, we don't need to also be buying some luxuries.

Wasting money on gambling

People have some amount of desire in them to earn fast and become rich. It can work for one person in a million probably and not for everyone. We should be very careful with the money that we are spending on gambling. It is always better to stay away from gambling but even if we are tempted to do some gambling, there is no harm in trying it out with a very small amount of money. But we should be clear that on gambling we spend only the money that we are ready to burn.

Not saving any money for the future

People have the habit of spending the money they earn. Sometimes they earn a lot of money and try to lead a luxurious life but they miss savings. Savings are very important. Saving enough money helps us at the right time when there is a need for us. Saving some amount of money for the future is always good. We will be able to make money only when we are young or when we have the strength. We have to create avenues for income that will help us when we don't have the strength in our bodies to earn money.
