3 ideas, 2 quotes, and 1 question to consider this week.

Happy Sunday!
Here are 3 ideas, 2 quotes, and 1 question to consider this week!
_____________________________________________________________________
3 Ideas From Me
1. “I love making interest on my money! Right now, one of the EASIEST and LOWEST RISK ways to make at least 4.55% APY on your money is by using a high-yield savings account.
My favorite right now is the Wealthfront Cash Account and here is why:
— Zero account fees
— Unlimited withdrawals & transfers (unlike bonds)
— Up to $5M FDIC insurance (money is protected)
— No minimum or maximum balance to earn at least 4.55% APY
— Reputable brand and beautiful online dashboard
Use my link to Boost your APY to 5.05%. It hasn’t been this easy to make high returns in a savings account in years.”
2. “The rich get richer is a myth. 70% of lottery winners go bankrupt within a few years. Therefore, being rich is not the pre-requisite we’ve been told it is. The only pre-requisite to getting richer is financial literacy.”
3. “Saving and investing is crucial, but the real growth comes when you invest in yourself – your skills, your understanding, and your mindset around money.“

2 Quotes From Others
1. Writer Ramit Sethi shares a thought about budgeting:
"Spend extravagantly on the things you love and cut costs mercilessly on the things you don’t.”
2. 16th President of the United States Abraham Lincoln shares wisdom on succeeding:
“I am not bound to win, I am bound to be true. I am not bound to succeed, but I am bound to live up to the light that I have.”

1 Question To Consider
"In what ways could you allocate time and money toward the things you actually love and away from the things you don’t truly care for?"
By considering this, you spend less (time and money) on the things, people, and places that don't bring fulfillment to your life.
Until next week,
