Make New Year's money resolutions for 1988

AND NOW, the North Shore News is delighted to present ; the do-it-yourself New Year’s Resolution List! (Maestro, a os we : Now, write your objectives from : TRACK

little cash register music if you please.)

I'll keep this short and us easy as I can. After all, your mind and stomach might still be slightly befuddled by thoughts and feelings of turkey past and possibly even turkey future — let alone other in- dulgences. Sull, while the mood is : reasonably mellow. and another long weekend promises to maintain that mood, jot down a few thoughts here. This could be all you need to get you off to a truly ‘‘prosperous”’ New Year.

Writing out your financial ob- |

jectives doesn’t mean you have to do anything.

But if you do want to gain more control over your finances, to feel more comfortable about how. you manage your money, this is an ef- fective way to do it.

Number the following objectives in order of priority — ‘‘I'’ for the most important and so on down. If two or more items are equally im- portant, give them the same number.

Note: you might want to give a .

high priority to a fairly easy objec- tive, to something you can achieve without too much effort just to get you started.

If you five with somebody, perhaps do this exercise separately. Compare answers and make some compromises if this is to be a joint effort.
