1. If you don't look after your finances you could find yourself homeless, hungry, and naked quicker than ever believed. Blowing off one little payment to buy a new pair of shoes is no longer an option. What once was no big deal now has huge consequences. With banks in their current financial condition they cannot afford to wait for payments or understand when you miss one altogether. They are putting accounts into collections quicker than ever before, and many people are losing their homes over a mere $500, since getting a loan for even that amount is not possible for someone in foreclosure in this market. Your home is your most valuable asset right now and you should hang onto it at all costs. Making timely payments and keeping your account up to date is more important now than ever. While paying late may have been no big deal a short time ago, it can be huge in the credit crunch. 2. Putting off saving money is no longer a good idea. Many people have grown accustomed to living off their credit cards instead of their income, but we are going into a period where what you have in the bank could literally be all you have. Learning about the credit crunch will reveal how important it is to reduce your dependency on plastic, especially if you are already running high balances and do not have a way to pay them off immediately. 3. If you are struggling financially
it is not time to throw up your hands as if it is out of your control. You can
make it through a credit crunch if you can keep a hold of your home and spend
as little as possible. It is possible to wait it out with your home and other
belongings safely in your possession, but you must learn at least the basics about
the credit crunch in order to survive.
