12 Ways To Make Money, Keep Money And Multiply Money

 12 ways to make money, keep money and multiply Money.

You're going to need money at some point, so why not start thinking about how you can make it now?

 You probably already have a few ideas on how to make a little extra cash—and that's great! 

But if you want to take your finances to the next level, consider these ideas for growing your wealth.

1. Make a Budget.

A budget is a plan for spending. It is a tool that helps you to keep money and multiply it. It can help you to save money by planning your expenditure and identifying where your money is going.

A budget can help you:

Identify your spending habits (the small things like going out for lunch every day adds up!)

Make sure that you have enough left over at the end of each month to pay off debts or put into savings.

Find ways to reduce unnecessary expenses, such as cellphone plans with lots of extras that you don’t really use.

2. Pay Off Your Debt.

The first thing you need to do is figure out which debt has the highest interest rate, then pay it off first. 

If you have multiple loans with different rates, pay off the loan with the highest rate first. This will save you more money in interest over time, which means that you can use this freed up cash for other purposes such as investing or buying a new home (which we’ll get into later).

Another important note about paying down debt: don’t spend more than what you can afford on monthly payments. This may seem obvious but it happens all too often when people feel like they have no control over their finances and start spending recklessly just because they have some extra money sitting around in their bank account after making payments on a high-interest loan or two!

 If this happens to be something that concerns/plagues/scares/annoys/bothered(?) You then there are two things I would suggest doing immediately:

 First of all try using YNAB (You Need A Budget) which is an online software program I've been using since 2013 and second get some professional advice from someone who knows what they're talking about (hopefully someone like me :)).

3. Keep up with Retirement Contributions.

Save for retirement. If you're in your 20s, it's too late to start saving for retirement. But if you're in your 30s or older and are not saving at least 10% of your income, then it's time to get on board with this one! Read our article on how much money should I contribute to an IRA?

If you aren't saving enough:

If a person does not have enough saved for retirement, they can open an IRA (Individual Retirement Arrangement), which is a tax-deferred savings account that allows people who earn less than $73,000 annually (single) or $101,000 annually (married filing jointly) to put aside up to $5,500 per year without paying taxes on interest earned until they withdraw their funds from the account after age 59 1/2.

 Alternatively, if the individual earns over these amounts, they may still contribute but only up until the point where their combined income plus contributions equals $122,000 and above respectively. 

The other option when investing in stocks is by buying mutual funds rather than single stocks because mutual funds tend not only better diversification, but also lower fees overall compared with purchasing individual stocks directly from companies such as Apple Inc., Microsoft Corporation®, Amazon®, Facebook Inc., Alphabet Inc., Netflix Inc., etcetera...

4. Save for an Emergency Fund.

What is an emergency fund?

An emergency fund is a cash reserve for unexpected expenses, such as a medical bill or car repair. It should be able to cover three to six months of living expenses. This means if you’re on maternity leave and don't have income coming in, it can help support you until you get back into the workforce or find another job (if necessary).

How much should I save?

To determine how much money, you need in your emergency fund, calculate how long it would take for your current income and savings to dry up if there were no more paychecks coming your way. If possible, aim to build up at least half this amount—and more if it makes sense for your situation! 

Remember: More than anything else, having an emergency fund is about feeling secure and prepared by knowing that whatever life throws at us when we least expect it won’t mean we lose everything we worked so hard for."

5. Use a Cash-Back Credit Card.

A cash-back credit card can be a great way to make money and save money: You earn 1-5% of your purchase in cash back, which is automatically deposited into your account.

 In addition, if you pay on time and don't go over your limit, you won't pay any interest. And there are no blackout dates or bonus miles needed with these cards -- just pure rewards!

If you're not sure where to start, here are some of the best cash back cards out there:

Chase Freedom has 1% cash back on all purchases and 5% cash back on up to $1500 in purchases made in rotating categories that change every quarter (up until December 31st). 

This means if you spend $2000 this year on your Freedom card during those months where the bonus category is active, that would equal $60 in extra spending power for yourself!

Capital One Quicksilver Cash Rewards Credit Card pays 1.5% on all purchases with no limits or restrictions whatsoever - even other types of debt payments like mortgages!

6. Buy in Bulk.

Buying in bulk is one of the easiest ways to save money and keep it.

Buy items you use regularly. If you use something every day, then buying it in bulk will save you a lot of money over the course of a year (or even longer).

 For example, if you buy laundry detergent once a month at $20 per bottle, then buying 5 bottles at once would save $100 over an entire year.

Buy items that can be stored easily. If your cupboards are already packed with food because they're too small or cluttered with clutter from other things, then it might not be worth storing any more food until those issues are resolved.

 However, if your cupboards have plenty of room for more food and aren't full of other stuff cluttering them up (like dirty dishes), then definitely consider buying in bulk!

Buy items that have multiple purposes so that even when the packaging runs out altogether there's still value left behind! For example: flour has many uses besides baking bread; coconut oil can be used as shaving cream; dried beans don't need refrigerating until cooked, so they make great pantry staples instead...

7. Avoid Overspending on Food.

Food is a necessity, but it doesn’t have to be expensive. If you want to save money, compare the prices of your favorite products at different stores and buy them where they are cheaper. 

Also, if you see that some store brand products are cheaper than regular brands, give them a try. You may be surprised how good they are!

Look for coupons at various stores and use them to get discounts on items that you already use or want to try out. When buying non-perishable food in bulk (such as cereal), look for coupons before buying so that you can save money when purchasing these types of items.

Finally, if you find yourself with leftover ingredients from one meal that could be used in another meal later on in the week (such as chicken), freeze it until ready!

8 . Automate Your Savings

• Automate your savings by setting up a recurring payment.
• Automate your savings by setting up a recurring bill payment.
• Automate your savings by setting up a recurring investment.
• Automate your savings by setting up a recurring donation to charity, church, or other beneficiary organization.

9. Get Creative with Your Income

When you make your money list, don’t forget to include your side hustle income. As I mentioned earlier, I made over $1 million from my side hustle.

Include all of the following:

• Your savings.
• Gifts from family or friends
• Inheritance (hopefully this will be less than what you saved)
• Tax returns (even though you may have gotten a refund)

This is just for one year so far—but it shows how many different ways there are to make money!

10 . Sell, Sell, Sell!

If you have any unwanted items lying around your home, or if you have skills and talents that others would be willing to pay for, then there's no reason why you shouldn't make some extra cash.

Let's take a look at the most common ways people can sell their "stuff" and use that money to fund their financial goals:

Sell unused items: One of the easiest ways to sell products is by using local classified websites such as Craigslist and Ebay. If you have old clothes, books or even furniture in your basement that are gathering dust while they could be making someone else happy instead of just collecting dust themselves—don't hesitate! Make an effort today so someone else will enjoy them tomorrow.

Sell expertise: Do you know how to repair cars? Do people come running anytime one of their appliances breaks down? Are there certain aspects of life where other people ask for advice from time-to-time?

 Whether its fixing things around the house or helping out friends when they're stuck with something personal; if this type of activity is what makes up most days (and nights!), then it might be worth looking into turning it into money making opportunities instead!

Sell pre-existing skills: There are many different types of jobs out there—some require specific levels training while others don't necessarily need degrees so much as they do experience doing similar tasks over time (which can often lead towards certification).

 The internet makes finding various positions easier than ever before so why not start exploring options now instead waiting until later down road when needs arise again?

11. Set Goals, and then Write Them Down

It's important to set goals in order to achieve success. Goals can be anything from saving money, paying off debt, traveling the world or starting your own business.

To set a goal:

Think about what you want out of life. This may be as simple as buying a new house or car. It could also be something more complex such as having your own company that employs 100 people within five years. Whatever it is, write down your goal so there is no confusion about what you are trying to achieve.

Set realistic goals that can be achieved within a year or two at most (some smaller ones might take less time). If you make it too hard for yourself then this may discourage you from trying any further because there are too many hurdles in between where things get too complicated and difficult which defeats the whole purpose of setting goals in the first place!

12 . Invest in the Stock Market

Investing in the stock market is a great way to make money, but it’s not for everyone. You need to have time and patience to invest since you won’t see results immediately. If you don’t have these two qualities, then maybe investing isn't for you.

That being said, if you do have those qualities and want more money than what your job provides then here's how it works:

You buy stocks from companies that have potential for growth and then sell them when the price goes up or so-called “capitalize on their success” as my broker likes to say (that sounds so much better than "make profit").

 If I were just starting out today, I would start with penny stocks because they're cheap but still give me room for profit down the road if everything falls into place right away which rarely happens so don't count on it happening anytime soon!

The best way to make money is through investing. The stock market is one of the best ways to do this, but it can be difficult for beginners. If you are unsure about your investment choices, consider going with a robo advisor or financial advisor who can help guide you through this process. Thanks reading.
