Last night Wes and I decided to invest in our future and become representatives for a network marketing company. We are very excited about this opportunity and can't wait to get started. The company asks you why you would want to do this and what your financial goals are. I sat down to think about this and here is what I came up with.
1. Pay off our debts.
2. Buy/Build a new house that is large enough for our family with room to grow.
3. Make enough money to be able to stay at home with our children.
4. Have a college savings account for the girls and any future children.
5. Be able to live comfortably without worries about money.
6. Take family vacations every year.
Most of these would be dreams, not goals, for us if we were to just be teachers. We realized that our goals would never happen if we had to live on our pre-set salaries. It is frustrating to know that there is no chance to get bonuses or raises beyond the cost of living raise we get each year. It doesn't matter how hard we work or how much time we put in, we will make the same amount of money. My dad presented this opportunity to us and we jumped at the chance to add to our income. It looks very promising and we are hoping to be successful at this. Wish us luck!
