Our Smart Cookies money group was what made the difference in us going from financial messes to financial successes! We'd like to share with you some of the tools we've designed to help you become a Smart Cookie too!


STEP 1: KNOW YOUR NUMBERS

The first step is knowing what numbers are important to your spending plan. The 'spending snapshop' will help you determine what your fixed expenses are each month. 'Tallying up your totals' allows you to list any credit cards and other loans you have plus their interest rates and monthly payments so you are in the know of how much you are paying towards your debts.

STEP 5: THE RATHER FACTOR CARDS

The Rather Factor card is meant to be used as a tool in case of an emergency...well a shopping emergency! Download this fabulous little tool to put into your wallet. When you feel the temptation to spend more than you should, you'll be reminded of the things you really do want to spend your money on, and you can call your 'call in case of emergency' friend you've listed on the card to help you off that spending ledge!


STEP 6: STARTING YOUR MONEY GROUP

Now that you have figured out all of your numbers, now comes the fun part: starting a money group! The Smart Cookies success could not have happened without the support of each other. Here you will find an easy step-by-step method on how to start your money group plus a sample of one of our money group agendas.
