How Often Do You Compare Yourself Financially to Others?

valeriekw — Sun, 22 Jan 2012 18:55:45 PST

Ever find yourself comparing your finances to other people? OnSugar blogger Beauty and the Budget talks about this dangerous habit.

In a society where everyone wants to keep up with the Kardashians, it's hard not to covet a fancy lifestyle - success, money, material possessions. When you find yourself in a financial rut, it's easy to compare yourself to others. Even if you don't give a hoot about the Kardashians, you might be comparing yourself to other people you know, and that could be a dangerous habit.

Because I've dealt with financial hardships for the majority of my life, I've practically based my entire life around this entire ideology that just about everyone has more than me. In high school, all of my friends had nice cars, and I didn't even have a car - I shared an old beater with my mom. While my friends' parents took them on shopping sprees, I had to work for anything I wanted. But through it all, I gained integrity and learned the value of hard work. That's not saying that my high-school friends aren't hardworking - they really are! It's just that I had to work a little bit harder to get what I wanted.

Even now, as I struggle to find the perfect job that will kick-start my fashion-career aspirations, I face financial hardships through student-loan debt. And let me tell you, making a few dollars over minimum wage at my current job it isn't easy!

When you get down about your finances or feel like you don't have enough, you have to remember that it could be worse. As a self-proclaimed "glass half empty" pessimist, I can assure you that the idea that things could actually get any worse doesn't seem possible. But in all honesty, we have it pretty good as Americans. Just look around you. Not only do we have food on the table, we also have cell phones and iPods, and if you're reading this article, you've got a laptop and an Internet connection, too. When I reflect on those tumultuous times growing up, and even now, I realize that I never actually needed for anything. Aside from financial difficulties, all of my needs are met daily. I just sometimes can't get the things I want, which leads me to comparing myself to others.

What about you - how often do you compare yourself to others?

Fresh Start Resolution: Drop Your Daily Deal Habit

Emily Co — Tue, 03 Jan 2012 10:00:00 PST

It's a new year and a new you! We're kicking off a short series detailing helpful tips to start off the year right, whether it be to advance your career or increase your financial cushion. Stay tuned for 12 ways to start afresh in 2012.

This year, resolve to drop your daily deal habit. Buying coupons can be extremely addictive, because sometimes the deals are just too tempting. But oftentimes, you'll end up doing something that you never planned on doing in the first place and trying restaurants that you had no intention of trying to begin with. The problem with buying deal after deal is, you might forget about them if you're not carefully keeping track of them, and you may end up losing money when the coupon expires.

Do yourself and your budget (not to mention your inbox!) a favor this year and unsubscribe from all the daily deals sites except your all-time favorite (PopSugar Shop, perhaps?). Also, make it a plan to use up all the daily deals you have yet to use this month as well. I know there may be deals that seem too good to miss out on such as the $10 for $20 worth of Amazon credit deal that LivingSocial had last year, so limit yourself to buying one or two online coupons this year. If you're worried about missing out on an amazing deal, I'm sure you'll catch a wind of it through friends or social media. And if you miss one, either scout for it on sites that sell unused daily deals like CoupRecoup or patiently wait for it to show up again.
