1. Putting off a fixed percentage of payroll
You can transfer to a separate account for 10-15% of the salary and other financial income or more - depending on income and mandatory spending. Make it worth as soon as your funds have been received on the account. So you can avoid internal negotiations in the spirit of "What if this month will not postpone anything?". This should become a habit.
Let's say you get an average Russian salaryAverage monthly nominal and real wages of employees of organizations - after taxes is 42,932 rubles. If you set aside 10% or 15% per month, in a year you will have 51.5 thousand or 77.2 thousand. Both amounts exceed the monthly salary.
2. Connect the "piggy bank" to bank account
Monthly transfer money to a special account - a good idea, but here the human factor intervenes. Too easy to forget in a hurry about it (or pretend to have forgotten). Automation in savings matters - the perfect assistant.
Many banks offer this possibility. For example, the Savings Bank have a service "Piggy", the "Alpha-bank" - the account "Nakopilka". Thanks to them, you can:
- Putting off a fixed percentage of the salary automatically. Service will respond to the receipt of money or transfer funds on the requested date.
- You translate a certain percentage of each waste. Let's say you bought business lunch for 250 rubles, 25 rubles was spent on a special account. As a result, some office lunches will bring you more than 500 rubles a month. Do not want the money went from the account? Less waste. This system is useful and so and so.
3. arrange Challenge
You can transform the process of accumulation in the quest with their own conditions. For example, set aside every month more than in the previous one, or collect a certain amount by a specific date. If you are a gambling man, the way of accumulation is not so important: you make every effort to fulfill the plan.
If your internal motivation enough to stash more actively attract external arbitrator. For example, argue with one another - and better than the money, you risk not only save, but also to lose.
4. To make a plan
If you know clearly what lay up, and want to buy it at a specific date, work planning. The most simple - divide the whole amount on the remaining number of months. The resulting figure will show how much you have put off every 30 days.
A problem with an asterisk for those who are not afraid of difficulties. Do you have a control number, below which it is impossible to sink. But to save more, it is possible. So if you connect additional sources of income, you get all the chances to surpass the plan.
5. Convert single item of expenditure in the accumulation
If you are looking for a simple way to find 1-2 weight, but optional expenditure and discard them. And the money that you would normally spend, delay.
Let's say you used to buy coffee to go - 100 rubles per glass. If within a month will bravely pass the coffee, then save and set aside up to 3 thousand rubles. Or a little less, if you wear a drink with a thermos from home - this is normal, the victims from you, no one is waiting.
The first in the list of things on which you refuse, should be alcohol and cigarettes. On the bad habits out a bunch of money and no use of them.
6. To save money on purchases unmade
The method is like the previous one, but struggling with constant expenditure, and with impulsive. We spend money, not only because we want to buy something. Often it is a way to please yourself. But the funds received in the cumulative expense, also an occasion for a good mood.
So, if you are peculiar impulse purchases (no matter what it is - a packet of biscuits or new jeans), each time in the store think it needs this thing. And if not, the delay amount, which is going to spend.
7. Contents map keshbekom and the percentage for the residue
Since you still keep the money on the map, and expend them, it would be strange not to use it. Many of the banks return the money spent. Some more, and charge interest on the balance of the map. Depending on how much you keep in the account and spend, the amount can be quite noticeable.
But it is important to read carefully the conditions of the bank so that they came specifically for your financial situation.
