Hi,<\/p>\n
People often ask me for financial management advice for people with bipolar disorder. I am going to do a teleseminar on the topic and will keep you posted. If there are particular things you would like me to cover in the teleseminar, just let me know.<\/p>\n
The following article was in Yahoo Finance today:<\/p>\n
http:\/\/financiallyfit.yahoo.com\/finance\/article-110102-5999-1-secrets-of-extreme-savers?ywaad=ad0035<\/a><\/p>\n It has a lot of great tips- of course, it describes people with jobs and what seems to be a healthy life- but we can learn from their ideas. Here are a few things you may not know about me!<\/p>\n 1. I am cash only. I mean this. I don’t have debit cards or credit cards AT ALL.<\/p>\n 2. I try to budget for each place I go.\u00a0 I find that budgeting for a whole day doesn’t work for me- but budgeting the cash for a certain event such as a Thai restaurant with friends really helps. This is MUCH harder during a manic or depression mood swing. That’s for sure! But I keep trying.<\/p>\n 3. I don’t go shopping in order to go shopping. If I find myself looking around and thinking how great things look and how I would LOVE those shoes and how PRETTY that shirt is- I know I’m hypomanic.<\/p>\n These are a few of my ideas. I started all of this in 2010. It has been hard- but it works! I am interested in your ideas.<\/p>\n Julie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi,<\/p>\n People often ask me for financial management advice for people with bipolar disorder.
