    I need to look for a new insurance company that is more affordable and has better benefits. Health insurance is taking a huge or should I say a gigantic bite out of our budget.

      I should also do wills, shred piles of old documents, and look around for cheaper term life insurance for DH.

      But I'd like to compliment myself on parking in the free spots every day this week, even if it's turned cold and it's a 1/2 mile walk. Nice Job, self!

        I should stop returning my library books late. I paid $3.60 in fines today, and $5 a few weeks ago. It's a small price, but one that is absolutely avoidable!

          Jodi: Can't you renew them? Sometimes I just need a few more days and I go online and renew them. I also take them back as soon as I can.

            Yes, I can renew them online...and what's more, my library e-mails me the day before they are due to tell me that they're due! That's why it's such a moronic (and inexcusable) expense on my part.

              I should be exercising more often; I'm a certified personal trainer. But I work on average 12 hours a day, 7 days a week. There's barely time left to eat and sleep.

              Good diet and exercise can go a long way in reducing your health care cost, not to mention the health benefits. Plus if you're sick, you can't work, and that probably affects your income more than any other factor.

                I should be exercising more often too. I got a trial membership today but I feel guilty about going when there's other stuff to do.

                But. . .on the financial side, I have a business line of credit sitting there that I should work on retiring but it just seems like something always comes up and the money is taken for other things. I can write off the interest. . .but that's still no justification.

                              I should be praying but I do not.

                              I should be investing if I want to move from UTAH to Arkansas but I haven't yet.

                              I am Jason from UTAH, North United States of America.

                                Updating wills and living trust.

                                Investing IRA rollover and ROTH contributions that are sitting in cash.

                                Setting aside money monthly for investing (outside of retirement vehicles).

                                Acting on recommendations from our broker after a portfolio review.
