Top Ten Reasons not to Save Money

Sharing is caring!

Hey today we have a light-hearted post for you guys. I am going to share the Top ten reasons why you should not save money ever. If you agree then you are facing one of these things below or thinking about one of these ten reasons, but if you disagree then you are a fan of the savings mantra. I think from time to time it is fun to joke around a bit.

 

Top Ten Reasons not to Save Money:

If you believe in the Mayan end of the world prediction. (12/21/2012)
If you believe the government will raid our finances.
If you want to depend on the government for basic necessities.
If you never want to travel after you are retired.
If you have a master plan to marry someone super – über rich.
If you are expecting a 3 million dollar inheritance as soon as you turn 60.
If you have a family business that will pay you a salary forever.
If you aspire to be CEO of a fortune 500 Co. when you turn 50. (Golden Parachute)
If you are Tony Soprano’s son and you will be the next Don of said family.
If you plan to live off your performances in the subway. (Sorry for the Low Blow)

 

These are the top ten reasons not to save a single penny for retirement or for your goals. Given these scenarios you will be either set for life or will be on a not so pleasant path in life. Shall we say dependent on others. Either way continue to do what you do and do not pay mind to your future because it is already written for you if your predictions come true. I think I am getting a Luke Skywalker flashback as I write this.

I know savings is something that people do not want to talk about because of the lack of comments I get on the topic, but it doesn’t have to be this way. Personal finance and savings is a numbers game and the more you cut out from expenses the more you can add to savings. (Simple Math) Chime in and discuss in your own way how you save like dave. LOL. If you are a Dave Ramsey fan you will get that saying I just created or maybe I read it somewhere.

 

Comment and let me know if you fall in line with these top ten reasons not to save money or if you disagree and will save some dollars for your future.

  1. This list was great for a good laugh!!! Like CeRusso, I won't be ditching my savings account or investments any time soon… (BTW, good to know when the Mayans said the world is going to "end" – I was completely unaware.)
