There is a saying that goes like this
The love of knowledge will make you wise and the application of your wisdom proves you have understanding. Today I will like to share with you some of the knowledge I had gained during the past few days. Why don't you relax and gain the same knowledge with a simple scroll.
A lot of people struggle with their financial life not because they are not working or they aren't making effort to make their life better but because there is some habit most of them possess that has made it difficult to live a good financial life.
Join me as I share 5 things you should avoid for a good financial life.
Betting

Betting is one of the addictions most people are battling with. It has no respect for any age. Once you start, it is always hard to stop.
If you haven't started betting, it's a good thing and you stay far away from it unless you will waste your money away with the hope of winning big one day.
Betting is a scheme to rob people of their money while giving them hope of winning. Many people involved in betting have experienced several money losses and also find it hard to quit. With the help of a therapist, they should be able to overcome such addiction and I'm sure you don't want to be like them.
Womanizing

No man or woman will like a cheating partner, not in a billion years. I will say this again to men "Womanizing is very expensive" it doesn't matter how much you earn, if you womanize you will go broke always because of the little cash you have on you, you would want to use it to impress all the ladies you're after. Womanizing takes money faster than any other thing, so please stay away from it.
Covetousness
This is a very bad habit that needs to be stopped from childhood. If you know any child that possesses such a habit, it will be nice to help them stop it before it becomes part of them.
As an adult, covetousness is a habit that will drive you to do what you don't want to do, buy what you don't need, and go where you're not needed.
All these unnecessary things will make you spend just to feel among. We all should know our level because we are not created to be equal, the faster you know that the easier it will become for you to appreciate what you have. Once a person tries to live a life that isn't meant for them because others live in such a way, they are heading towards a financial breakdown.
Borrowing without a Job.

Getting a loan is not a bad idea or starting up a business on loan. The important factor of these two things is to understand risk management and implementation of what the borrowed fund is meant for.
It is wrong to borrow from people without having a backup plan on how you will pay back if things don't go the right way. Before you borrow make sure you have something you're doing that will fetch you money. By doing that, you will have the assurance to work more and pay back. Borrowing without a Job will only sink you more in debt and the more the debt, the harder it is to get back up financially.
Lastly is something you shouldn't avoid but apply.
Pray Always.

I'm not here to preach about faith because we all have something we believe in. If there is a problem and you pray, it doesn't mean the problem will go away but it will be diminished. You will be like, I use to consider this to be a problem but now it doesn't look like a problem again. Just pray to whatever you love and cherish, any God you believe in and the burden in the heart will be diminished.
Thanks for reading. I do appreciate all the love shown. Have a great Tuesday.
